Now i read in the Pioneer Press yesterday that siad we signed Aaron Hosack, a wide reicever from the U of M. I cant find it anywhere is that says its offical. Anyways i hope we did this guy is a big wide reciever i think he's as big as moss maybe an inch taller and hes got speed, i think this guy could be a number 3 guy if he puts his heart into it.

I don't think he's likely to work his way into the starting lineup unless there's an injury. Tice is pretty happy with Burleson and Campbell as the number 3s.

I saw the same report in VU. He's definitely a tall target (listed at 6'5"). He also has Moss' build--long and lean. It'd be cool to see him in a Vikes uniform.

these guys that they bring in right now are jsut for competition for the real team. if one or two of them show that they have what it takes to make the team, great. but don't mistake a signing as the team having a lot of faith in the guy. it's just a matter of having extra bodies at camp

I've seen Hosak play- he is a playmaker and
has a good shot at making the team.

I just think out of Burleson and Campbell, Hosack has a very good chance and isnt just another body at camp, i like him but thats me.

Hosack is just another body at camp. I do like him and have seen him play, every Saturday (I go to the U of MN Twin Cities). He does have the body type but he didnt do anything amazing this year, it will be a stretch if he makes the team but i wish him luck

There is no way that Hosack will make the team, maybe the practice squad, but that's it! He was very inconsistent at the U, and there is no way he has the same type of speed that Moss, Campbell and Burleson have. I'm not trying to play a race card or anything, but he's white!! The thing he does have however is the size and the hops!! I hope I am completely wrong and he makes the team and plays well for us, I'll gladly eat my words!!

What does being white have anything to do with anything? There are plenty of great players in the NFL that are white. If you want to argue that Hosack doesn't have the skills, thats fine, but leave race out of it. Its not relevant and is offensive.
