The Minnesota Vikings have moved down for the second time in the NFL Draft, making a deal with the Green Bay Packers for the 34th overall pick in exchange for the 53rd and 59th overall pick.

The Packers used the selection to select North Dakota State receiver Christian Watson.

The trade marks the second time that the Vikings have traded down with a divisional rival in this year's draft. Minnesota traded the 12th and 46th overall pick to the Detroit Lions on Thursday night, in exchange for the 32nd, 34th and 66th overall pick. Detroit used the 12th overall selection to take Alabama receiver Jameson Williams.

After the trade, the Vikings will now have nine picks remaining including four on the second night of the draft. They'll be on the clock for the 53rd, 59th, 66th and 77th overall picks on Friday night.
