Anyone else think we should take a look at OJ Mayo now that he's past his suspension? Could be a cheap, legitimate rotation player.

I didn't think he was suspended from NFL? What position do you think he would play?

Week 4 OTA's
-Cook is back
-Randolph is back
-Holton Hill is looking like he will make the team
-Treadwell is getting snaps before KWright. Not sure if that says more about KWright or Treadwelll improving.

I think that's a bit of a good sign about Treadwell. The Vikings also know to some extent what Wright can do it makes sense to get Treadwell out there with those other guys. He might be a better compliment than Wright for a majority of the snaps.

I will believe it when I see it. I really would be happy if he stepped up. I wonder if this Brandon Zylstra will make the team. Zim seems to love him.

Tim Yorter the Viking Update guy said in his latest podcast that Zylstra has been a guy that Vikings people have been telling him has looked good for a while. He said he ask them who was looking good and he was one of the first names they mentioned not just top rookies etc. I'd say He probably has the inside track on that last WR spot Coley had last year.

Yotter also said he thinks Mike Hughes has looked really good and has been really impressed with him.

I am opTimistic about Hughes. I was critical of the pick, but you can't have enough good corners or DL in this league. I hear they tried Newman some at safety. I might be reading into it, but that might be a good sign they like what they see in Hughes and Mackensie Alexander in the slot. I am not even bringing up Holton Hill who I think has a chance too to be better then both if he doesn't screw it up.

Saw this article about Alex Smith. It will be interesting to see how he does with the Redskins.

I think they put Newman at Safety last year at some point before the season in practices or some camp as well. It makes sense. I mean he has had like 20 years of reps as a CB it doesn't hurt to give him some reps at Safety in case it's needed. Plus I don't think Sendejo has even practiced yet this offseason because of injury. Regardless this is probably the most excited I have been about the CB depth on this squad in a while.

Same here.
