Rebuilt Vikings Defense

[MaroonBells]

Just how much have the Vikings rebuilt their defense? Yes, many of the new faces are players returning from injury or Covid opts, but still, this is a pretty remarkable fact:

By preliminary calculations, Harrison Smith and Cameron Dantzler will be the only players to presumably start for the Vikings in Week 1 of 2021 compared to Week 17 of 2020.

The thing is going to look and feel totally different.

Yeah, that's crazy.  Hopefully the COVID bug is better at being under control for camps and the regular season.

Hmmm, Eric Kendricks started the first 11 games of 2020 so unless he has been cut, traded, or still injured, he'll be our starting MLB this year.  Was there a news release that he is out for the start of the season?

Still need upgrade at RDE and Safety next to Harry

I'm really starting to look forward to the season.

[Guest]

Did someone say we need a safety next to Harry?  Bam!  Zimmer and Spielman must be watching this board.

except when they need a starting caliber guard

It will be interesting to see how it all works out.
