You may have noticed the first-round pick Laquon Treadwell, despite being active, did not play a single snap in Sunday’s opener against the the Tennessee Titans.

“He still has work to do. We still have to keep getting him going,” Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said on Monday. “As you’ve seen, Diggs was inactive for three weeks last year. We’re trying to do things right, get him ready to play and get him ready to go when the time is correct. I think all these young guys need to learn, not just him but all these guys, need to learn about professional football a little bit. It’s not like you just come in and you’re the best player on the field right now.”

It’s true. Diggs wasn’t active all of last season and he still managed to lead the team in catches and yard in 2015, and was equally impressive on Sunday.

But the team did not use a first-round pick on Diggs like it did Treadwell.

Most fans probably aren’t too upset that Treadwell didn’t play. General Manager Rick Spielman and Zimmer have done a pretty solid job of drafting and developing players. But when you see Will Fuller go for 107 receiving yards for Houston or Corey Coleman catch a 58-yard pass for the Browns, it makes Vikings fans ask the question, ‘What about our first-round pick?’
