Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

The Vikings locked up solid linebacker depth at an exceptional value, making Nick Vigil's one-year, $1.2M deal a clear steal in today's inflated market. While Vigil profiles as a depth piece rather than an every-down starter, his veteran reliability and special teams contributions make him worth significantly more than his bargain-basement salary suggests. At 31, he's not a long-term building block, but Minnesota isn't paying for upside — they're getting a proven commodity who can step in when needed without breaking the bank. The one-year structure eliminates any downside risk while giving the Vikings flexibility to reassess their linebacker room next offseason. This B- CVI reflects smart roster management, securing competent depth at a fraction of what similar veterans typically command in free agency.

Performance Analysis

Nick Vigil's F grade is a harsh but accurate assessment of where the veteran linebacker stands in 2025. After solid years in Cincinnati and earlier stops, Vigil's production has cratered to the point where he's barely contributing at the NFL level. The Minnesota Vikings have him on the roster primarily as depth and special teams insurance, not as a meaningful defensive contributor. His tackle numbers have fallen off dramatically, and at this stage he's simply not making enough plays to justify significant snaps. Vigil is a textbook veteran who has overstayed his window as a viable starter. His experience has some locker room value, but the on-field product has deteriorated significantly.
