Was that Cousins or Browning? Either way, very pretty.

Agreed. If that was Browning, that was a nice throw with some mustard.

Garrett Bradbury and Bradley Chubb get into a scrum but it’s quickly separated.

College teammates at NC State.

Davin cook runs are unstoppable today. Behind Udoh and O’Neill especially

It didn't take long for Ihmir Smith-Marsette to get comfortable with the Vikings. He danced in the end zone after a TD and celebrated with Justin Jefferson.

"He's very confident, very cocky," Mike Zimmer said. "Likes to jab a little, talk a little bit."

Hmmmm. We had another 5th round pick like that. Maybe we should just trade him now for Buffalo's first right now.

Davis has the potential to be a starting guard. Honestly, Udoh should probably be a RT in the NFL....ideally the top swing tackle backup behind Darrisaw and O'Neill in a perfect world.

I still believe this is the best lineup the Vikings could have: Darrisaw-Cleveland-Bradbury-Davis-O'Neill and Udoh top swing OT. But shit happens and that probably won't ever be the way it goes down. Right now, I still don't see what others see in Ezra Cleveland. I also don't trust having two starting guards over 6'5" tall. Its a leverage problem. JMO.

Oli Udoh, once again, outplays Dakota DozierFor the entirety of training camp, the Vikings had Oli Udoh and Dakota Dozier split reps at right guard with the first-team offensive line. In this humble observer's opinion, the competition there isn't even close. Frankly, there isn't one. The job needs to be Udoh's.
The third-year converted tackle was one of the biggest breakout stars of this year's camp, along with K.J. Osborn and Browning. His combination of size, strength, and athleticism appear to translate very nicely at guard. All camp long, Udoh made things happen in the run game, pass protected well, and won most of his 1-on-1s.
Dozier had some solid moments, but on the whole, he wasn't nearly as good. Plus, there's an entire 16-game season of tape that tells you the veteran was one of the worst offensive linemen in the NFL last season. Why go back to that well when Udoh offers a higher floor and ceiling?
The trend continued on Thursday. Dalvin Cook broke off a few nice runs towards the right side, with Udoh and Brian O'Neill opening up lanes. Dozier was driven back in the pocket far more frequently than Udoh was.
