2023 Fantasy Outlook
Blackmon was selected by the Vikings in the third-round of the 2023 draft. The 5-foot-11, 178 pound cornerback logged a 4.47 40-yard-dash at the combine and will look to put that speed to use as a depth option in the secondary. Read Past Outlooks

Blackmon (shoulder) recorded 41 total tackles and eight passes defended, including one interception, in 15 games during the 2023 regular season.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 third-round pick out of USC was forced to miss the Vikings' final two games due to a shoulder issue, but he was productive when he saw the field. Blackmon started only three games, playing primarily as a rotational cornerback, but he still finished third on the team in passes defended. The 24-year-old could very well be in line for a larger role in 2024.
