Mike Wobschall, of Vikings.com, reports Minnesota Vikings DL Jayme Mitchell is looking to make strides during the offseason after making the team as an undrafted free agent heading into the 2006 season. "I need to get quicker and to get better all around," Mitchell says. "But I really want to get my body in tip-top shape and keep pressing and I'll be alright. I just want to work hard and get better [at] rushing the passer." Mitchell believes having a year of experience will prove beneficial heading into 2007. "I feel like I got better, against the run and with pass rush and just all around," the 6-6, 285-pound lineman said. "I feel like I know a lot more about the game and I know there's a lot to learn. I'm anxious to do that."
