I saw that. I don't want summer to end, but when it gets too cold to boat I will be ready for some football.

I didn't. Thanks for sharing. He dropped because of his combine 40, but on the field, he had no problems with the best of the SEC and ran fast enough at his pro-day. He reminds me a little of that Corey Brewer type billed.

Corey Brewer would just take the ball away from guys even if they did catch it lol

It's still absolutely fascinating to me that Jerry Gray and George Edwards are Coaching elsewhere. The Vikings seem to be pretty confident in their ability to get the guys they have at CB ready. I think there is talent there.

It is interesting. Time will tell if these are good moves. If they are I will have even more respect for Zimmer to keep adapting.

I watched that again. Thelien got a good release off the press coverage which was just him being good. Then you have Cameron mirroring him and staying in his pocket the whole time. When Theliens head turned so did Cam's. That is just a whole lot of goodness there against a top 30 WR for a rookie CB.

There is a video from yesterday of Hollins beating Dantzler so I guess Hollins is now the Goat. lol =) I guess Hollins has been doing well. I like that guy. The report says Dillon has dropped a number of balls.

I just read a report from camp Jaylyn Holmes is back playing outside on the 2nd team. I had wondered just in terms of numbers if that would happen.

The author mentioned Elfien playing RG is where he played 2 years in college so that could be the thinking behind that move. It sounds like right now the LG position is between Dozier and Collins. I'd be happy if Collins won that job but Dozier isn't terrible.

I forgot all about Hollins. Good stuff. I have not been paying to much attention with work being busy and focusing on boating this summer. I think the Vikings will play a lot of press with help over the top. That is tough for CB's but we have 2 good safeties to help.
