I think the Vikings have been, and will continue, taking shots on several late round TEs in the hope that they can get lucky on one, which would allow them to move on from Hockenson. Since they traded for Hockenson, the Vikings have probably brought in close to a dozen late-round, UDFA and FA TEs like Mundt, Muse, Bartholomew, Sims, Yurosek, Tonyan, Knox, Ricci, Nesbit, etc., TE is one of the positions I think you can sometimes get lucky with a late rounder. But it hasn't happened yet.

That's the kind of luck you invest in with pull tabs and scratch off tickets, usually 10 to 20 dollar wins 1 in 5 at best, and that's just making the team. One in hand is better than 8 at checkout.

I hope hock returns.
ACL injury really messed up his game up.
His feet looked heavy and slow. The strength and bounce wasn't there.
he'll sort it out and fix it in the off season.
I think he'll have a monster year
