Well, the Vikings are continuing to quietly make roster moves that will define the 2010 season. Today, news broke that the Vikings successfully negotiated a two year contract with Benny Sapp.
Sapp has played with the Vikings on two consecutive one-year contracts the past two seasons. He appeared to have to turned a corner in 2009 [...]
Well, we are now about an hour into free agency and it seems that, despite numerous statements that the Vikings wanted all of their unrestricted free agents back, they were only 20% successful on the front.
They only re-signed receiver Greg Lewis.
Chester Taylor, Jimmy Kennedy, Benny Sapp, and Artis Hicks all appear to be hitting free [...]
The Vikings have received plenty of production out of their 2009 rookie class this year.
First round pick, and offensive rookie of the year, Percy Harvin has turned out to be one of the most explosive slot receivers and return men in the NFL. Second rounder Phil Loadholt was immediately installed as the team’s starting right [...]
The Star Tribune just released a few interesting nuggets as to Sunday’s game.

Anthony Herrera (concussion) still did not practice, but Benny Sapp (thumb/ribs) was able to participate on a limited basis after sitting out on Wednesday.
In addition to [...]
The Vikings have had relative luck with injuries so far this season (frantically knocking on wood) as they have not lost anyone for the season or even had very many serious injuries. Antoine Winfield’s foot injury has been the worst injury so far, and he is due back any day now.
The injury report features ten [...]
