If the Los Angeles Rams are looking to make moves before the deadline, here are three targets worth considering from the Minnesota Vikings.

Over the next couple of weeks, the Los Angeles Rams along with every other team will be facing the decision of whether they could benefit from making a move or two before the trade deadline.

Last year, the Rams felt confident enough in having nothing to lose by acquiring former first-round pick Dante Fowler Jr. from the Jacksonville Jaguars to see if a fresh start on a new team could help the Florida product turn his career around.

As fans know, Fowler played good enough for Los Angeles in the second half of last season along with the playoffs to earn a “prove-it deal” from the team this offseason with the hope of potentially earning a hefty contract down the road.

This scenario alone is the perfect example of how teams can benefit from making moves before the trade deadline, and when looking at some of the areas the Rams could improve in, the Minnesota Vikings seem to have a few candidates worth the consideration.

Even though the Vikings haven’t exactly expressed interest in moving on from any certain player, one of the best parts about the NFL is how surprise moves can happen out of nowhere if the offer seems right.

Depending on how the next few weeks ago since September wasn’t exactly the best start, Minnesota could be in one of those positions in which they consider dealing some of their players to load up on future draft picks.

If this somehow becomes a possibility, and the Rams are willing to listen, here are three trade targets from the Vikings that could help Los Angeles fill a few of those needs.
