Vikes looking at 3 players at No. 3 spot-- Fri Apr 20 8:50 pm -- Minnesota considering an OT, CB and WR
The Minnesota Vikings have narrowed down their list of choices for the No. 3 pick in next week's NFL draft to three players. Vikings general manager Rick Spielman, according to a report in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, has submitted among his staff three names for consideration with the team's top pick - USC left tackle Matt Kalil, LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne and Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon.(ESPN)
FF Today's Take:Blackmon and Percy Harvin would make for a dynamic receiving duo for second-year quarterback Christian Ponder, who put together a promising first NFL season in 2011. He will try to build on his respectable rookie numbers in 2012, and both Blackmon or Kalil would help aid his efforts.
Harvin to undergo shoulder surgery-- Tue Apr 3 7:00 am -- Arthroscopic "clean up" procedure
According to a source, Percy Harvin’s surgery will be minor in nature, an arthroscopic "clean up" procedure. It should not come anywhere close to jeopardizing Harvin’s availability for the start of training camp. Last season, Harvin led the Vikings with 87 catches for 967 yards. In total, he had 1,312 yards from scrimmage on 139 offensive touches.(Minneapolis Star Tribune)
FF Today's Take:This shouldn't be a major concern or affect Harvin's availability for training camp unless a setback occurs. With Adrian Peterson on the mend from knee surgery, the Vikings are expected to make Harvin the focus of their offense. He should be a solid fantasy WR2 in 2012.
Vikings re-sign WR Aromashodu-- Thu Mar 29 1:30 pm -- To a one-year contract
The Minnesota Vikings have re-signed receiver Devin Aromashodu to a one-year deal. In his first season with the Vikings last year, Aromashodu caught 26 passes for 468 yards and three touchdowns. He signed with the Vikings after three seasons in Chicago and was one of the team’s best blocking receivers. His best game came against Denver last December, when he had six catches for 90 yards.(Yahoo Sports)
FF Today's Take:Aromashodu isn't the type of shifty receiver that will stretch the field and complement Percy Harvin in the passing game. Expect the Vikes to select a receiver in the first half of the NFL draft next month.
