I think we are now set at the nickel and FB position, now lets get the long snapper depth addressed.

Currently we have Winfield, Cook, Bowman, Carr, Sherels and Burton. Last year we had Winfield, Cook, Griffin, Sapp, Sherels, and Burton. Grab a decent corner in the draft and drop off Burton and I guess that's moving forward.

Don't forget the safety and MLB position Rick.

Nice pick-up. Probably the best corner available.

Works for me. Nice job, Vikings! Keep it going!

Marty will be PISSED we didn't get a DL who can pressure the QB and at the same time re-directing the ball straight into Greenways hands every play.

But if healthy, this doesn't look too bad

Cook, Carr, Winfield, Bowman, Sherels, Burton, Asher.

Now, if only we had a safety worth a damn.

I think its a great pickup..... The guy is used to being in an elite backfield with the Ravens... could rub off on us.

Nice pickup, would love to get S, and MLB also, combined with Kalil, WR, needs, we still have a lot of work to do.

Great pick up, in my eyes he is a legit starting caliber cornerback, we needed him and got him - i like it..

Carr, Cook, Winfield, with a draftpick, along with Bowman, Allen, Sherels.. this is starting to look okay, i actually think we might think about targeting a safety in the early second round instead of a corner..

of course the other option would be to move Winfield back to safety and look for a CB in the second round - I'massuming that we're not looking at Claiborne of course. That would at least give us some experience at the back and let Winfield play longer as I like him and don't want to see him let go due to getting older.
