Did you see where Donovan Jackson said the Draft call from the Vikings came up 'Possible Spam' so he was reluctant to pick up the call, lol. He said that's why he sounded so questioning when he said "hello?" Wink

I like Van Ginkel so I understand the signing. Isn't Dallas Turner his backup though? Having just lived through a lot of time between draft choices the last two years, it's burned into my brain that we gave up a lot to move up for Dallas only to have him buried on the depth chart. It's especially true given we chose between Turner and Jared Verse...who ended up DROY.

Well first Van Ginkel looks the part of a viking warrior, so kudos to him.

I am not at all distressed by having quality depth in that department. Probably why they only added 1 year to his deal, but having lots of weapons to get after the QB makes Flores even more dangerous.

Plenty of snaps to go around. I think Patrick Jones had 6 or 700 last year.

Actually it was 459.

Jihad Ward had another 467.

Funny, due to his foot injury, he was pretty much MIA during OTAs and a real non-issue in terms of noise during the off-season.
He sure changed the tenor of that noise by his performance, once he was healthy...both on and off the field.

He REALLY needs a beard to complete the look.

Miami messed up.....and the players loved Gink in Miami. See what can happen when used properly.
