Since he's injured he might....I don't see this as an upgrade.

Probably our new kickoff returner...

Isn’t Adullah known to be a bit of a fumbler? Oh well, he probably won’t be on the field all too much. Hopefully it works out.

I prefer Mike Boone over Roc Thomas anyway.

2nd round pick and the future star in Detroit to depth chart filler. The NFL life doesn't coddle. I don't expect much from him.

Not sure what's going on with Roc's injury, but I hope he finds himself back on our practice squad. As far as Abdullah goes, I'm sure it's just a depth signing to cover whatever happened with Thomas. I suppose it's possible the Vikings saw an opportunity to upgrade Thomas, but it's hard to say. AA's got some talent. Been hurt a LOT. Looks like his best game as a pro was against us last year when he rushed for 94 yards and a TD on 20 carries.

When a former high draft pick gets cut, teams who were interested in him back in his draft sometimes give him one last shot. So my hunch is Spielman, Zimmer, and/or DeFilippo were impressed with Abdullah in 2015 and thinks that if he could stay healthy and/or get into the right scheme, he might do better. His workout numbers were impressive at the combine - aside from his 40, very similar to Jerrick McKinnon. Spielman likes great athletes, so he probably wants to see if any of that potential is still around.
