The Vikings Top Five Position Battles

I'm really looking forward to these 2.

Nickel Corner: Charles Gordon, Asher Allen, Benny Sapp, Karl Paymah

Starting Left Defensive End: Ray Edwards, Brian Robison, Kenechi Udeze

I don't know why the author left Udeze out at LE. If he's returning he's not gonna be there to go through the motions, he's going to be fighting to get his job back.

I always trhought Udeze was a RDE. . The other issue as well that people need to rememeber is thaty Udeze may not be ready at the start of the season., and it may take him a while to get back into the swing of things if at all. Don't get me wrong I WANT Udeze to come back but he has gone through a pretty seriouls medical condition that physically has taken alot of him.

He was a RE when Darrion Scott was our LE. If I remember correctly.

Then he moved to the left when we drafted Erasmus. (d'oh)

He shifted to RDE for one year (2005) when we screwed the pooch and drafted EJ who didn't pan out and we didn't have anyone else to play at RDE that was worth anything.
