Three days until the real practices.

Andrew Krammer@Andrew_Krammer Rough first day of camp for #Vikings kicker Dan Bailey, who made 4 of 7 attempts, missing from 39, 41 and 47 yards during team field goal sessions. Chad Graff@ChadGraff Interesting end to the first full Vikings’ training camp practice. Dan Bailey missed a 47-yard field goal in the situational drill with time expiring. His third miss on seven tries. And an upset Mike Zimmer apparently made the team run as a result.

Just the first practice. Everyone will forget what happened today. http://www.mnvikingscorner.com/2019/07/day-1-training-camp-notebook-first-look.html

But the kicking game, and kicking in the clutch, there was a problem there. Blocked punts against us especially in crucial moments was as much a problem as our atrocious kicking game that spanned three kickers. And yet the overall special teams rating was in the top 10 five years in a row. We must have had a sensational ST coach to overcome the missed FGs and the blocked punts.

You’d think a coach of that caliber would get a promotion one of these decades huh?

I hope he doesn't go all Private Pyle on everybody.

Why? We may need it…just saying.

Kai Forbath is a free agent. He's better than Bailey at this stage of their careers. It seems clear in hindsight that cutting Forbath was a mistake.

I wonder if the Giants could be persuaded to trade for Treadwell. Their head coach should be very familiar with him. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27262955/giants-coleman-tears-acl-gm-halts-obj-talk

Mostly re-hashing what we already read. https://thevikingage.com/2019/07/26/minnesota-vikings-camp-2019-takeaways-day-1/

Some positive spin on the Vikings on the national level. After Pelisero, wait for the following video for another. https://www.vikings.com/video/pelissero-one-name-remember-for-the-vikings-chad-beebe?utm_source=taboola&utm_medium=exchange

Maalouf said he would like to have "a variety of different [returners] that are good at different things, because then we can use them in different situations. I think that keeps our opponents guessing."

It's a bit surreal to think of picking up Claiborne on a cheap deal. I remember he was talked about as a possible pick for the Vikings that year instead of Matt Kalil. Neither one of them turned out well. Claiborne has had a couple injury plagued seasons but I remember him being pretty darn good otherwise. Not sure how much cap room we have but we only have question marks at cb4. Hughes was never realistically going to be ready to start the season and might be a scratch for the entire season.

Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/27/2019 12:29:49 PM)
According to sportrac we currently have 5ml in cap space after top 51 players.

Surprised by the multiple ligament damage being mentioned now.

People make sports wagers on their teams. It's not right that teams are not more forthright all year round about injuries.

It is reported that Scandrick, one of the corners that we worked out signed with the Eagles.
