Quarterback Vince Young paid a predraft visit to Minnesota on Monday.

Young accounted for 467 yards in the Rose Bowl to lead Texas to the national championship, after which his stock rapidly accelerated. He announced four days later he was skipping his senior season to turn pro.

Along with USC's Matt Leinart and Vanderbilt's Jay Cutler, Young is one of three highly rated quarterbacks in this year's draft.

The Vikings have the 17th pick, which will probably be way too late to pick any of them, but they also have two selections each in the second and third rounds and could put together a package to trade up.
