Minnesota Vikings will be hosting Deone Bucannon on Thursday
Deone Bucannon was named an Associated Press first-team All-American during his final college season, leading the Pac-12 with 109 tackles, while also tallying six interceptions. He will be visiting the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday according to Ben Goessling.
Deone Bucannon has great size at 6-1 and 211 pounds, but could the Vikings be looking at another safety after signing Kurt Coleman?

Washington State safety Deone Bucannon will visit the #Vikings on Thursday for their top-30 event, per league source. Could be good fit.
Deone Bucannon is projected as a second rounder, I highly doubt the Vikes would use a draft pick on him in the second because they have more holes to fill. Bucannon had an impressive showing at the combine, running a 4.49 40 and jumping 36.5 inches in the vertical leap, but it sounds like a visit, just in case he drops.
