Yeah I even read some of the Giant blogs when we got Jones, and they were freaking pissed they traded their “Best OLineman”.... If it was a time to shine it was last year on one of the worst oLines we’ve ever had. Let’s just hope Jones fell into the sh!t brigade most of them were under last years staff minus Tony Sparano (RIP)

Found this blurb from the Athletic on RotoWorld Alexander Mattison RB, Minnesota Vikings The Athletic's Jay Glazer reports the Vikings can't stop "raving about" third-round RB Alexander Mattison at camp. "The Vikings have a rookie RB named Alexander Mattison who they were all raving about when I stopped by their camp," Glazer writes. "I mean, to a man, couldn’t stop preaching his gospel." Mike Boone has torn up the preseason for the second straight year, notching 111 yards on 22 touches through Minnesota's first two games, but Mattison (19/71) has clearly been used ahead of the former in both contests. Much like Latavius Murray's situation with the Vikings last year, Mattison is both the direct handcuff to Dalvin Cook and continues to have late-round standalone value as fantasy's current RB57.

Oline: Reiff, Elf, Bradbury, Kline, O'Neill, Udoh, Hill, Samia and Dozier or Isadora. I was really hoping Badet would take off... he has elite deep speed(in theory). But dude is hurt again... he may just not be cut out for the NFL. I wasn't very impressed with Badet on KO returns. He's extremely frail looking as well. We do need a guy whom can take the top of a defense off but they have to be good at tracking and catching the deep ball. I am reading opinions on Badets return capabilities as the greatest, but I have not been impressed. I think Boone or Abdullah might be a better choice.

It looks like there will be two kickers. #Vikings STC Marwan Maalouf hinted that making Kaare Vedvik both the kicker & punter may not work. “It’s so hard to ask one guy to do everything.... Pre-game isn’t long enough for somebody to do everything. But if we can carve out the right roles for him, I think he’ll help us.” Sean Borman on Twitter

[sm=scratch.gif] I forget. Somewhere on Twitter. Lately I've been spending more time there than here. If I see it again I will link it. I found Nick Olson in his 53 man roster projection touting Badet because of his return abilities/ potential. I do disagree.

No news is good news so far regarding Holton Hill’s attempted decapitation of Paxton Lynch.

From practice notes: "Special Teams Coach Marwan Maalouf said that Chad Beebe will hold for Kaare Vedvik when he Kicks FGs and Extra Points. I suspect Vedvik will be the kicker on Saturday night." Hate to be constantly a downer... This strikes me as really as a really bad idea. 1) Beebe I would think could use all the reps at WR that he can get. 2) I hope like hell you don't plan on using an oft injured WR as your regular season holder. I already have visions of big game, Beebe getting hurt, big kick to win the game, wide right... perfect Vikings scenario. Other notes: Linval says he is feeling much stronger than last year. Hope it's true, he can be a difference maker.

How about trick plays? Do you want a Punter running with the ball or Beebe?

I would be extremely surprised if Vedvik doesn't make the team. I don't think we would be giving up a 5th round pick for a training camp rental.

He will be the punter, kickoff and long field goal guy.

How about trick plays? Do you want a Punter running with the ball or Beebe? Exactly. I've always wanted someone with some athletic ability at that job. They used to have backup QB's do it. Makes a fake, or dealing with a botched snap, a lot more likely to succeed.
