Mike Zimmer: Danielle Hunter had a "really, really" good day yesterday. "I wasn't really looking for him, but I sure noticed him."

I have to call bull shit... the biggest piece of his defense coming off a year where he didnt play a snap... and he wasnt really looking... come on Zim,  peddle that line of BS some where else.

Mike Zimmer on Danielle Hunter's 1st practice: "I wasn’t really closely watching him, but I sure did notice him. He’s one of those guys that, the first time we went one-on-one pass rush, he was going against O’Neill, and it was amazing. So I heard O’Neill ask him,

"he said, ‘Danielle, what was that move?’ And he said, ‘I don’t know. It just happened.’ He’s just slithery and long arms and athletic. It’s just different.”

Clearly all those hand-fighting drills we saw clips of this spring are paying off.

Imagine being the kid having to go into dad and tell him you ran into the garage door with the new pick-up. 

This is a dad look if there ever was one.

"Danielle's back, and that gives me plenty of trouble already," O'Neill quipped. "I've got my hands full, for sure. "He's just bigger, stronger, faster, quicker and more skilled than 99 percent of the people out there. But then he's also willing to talk to you about things that happen," O'Neill later added. "So if he beats you, I can ask him questions, like, 'This is what I saw. This is what you did that made me react this way.' And he's not afraid to lift you up when you do something good, too. But he's just like, 'Hey, man. We're working. We're out here to work, we're out here to get better, and I'm gonna help you get as good as you can.' And hopefully it's reciprocated. Hopefully I push him, as well." Hunter had 14.5 sacks in back-to-back seasons in 2018 and 2019, but missed the entire 2020 season with a neck injury.
He was essentially a full-go in Wednesday's practice. He turned heads in team sessions, and also looked like his usual self in individual drills. Minnesota missed his presence in multiple ways a season ago. The Vikings tallied a franchise-low 23 sacks and were among the league's worst teams at stopping the run, too. And as training camp continues and the 2021 season looms, there's little doubt that the Vikings are counting on Hunter to be an impact player in the months ahead. "He goes about his business the right way, and he works hard. I think it's going to make everybody better," O'Neill said. "If we get to see that level of competition every day, that can only put us in hard situations, and you want that. You want the game to be easier than practice, and he sure makes practice really hard."

Patrick Peterson added: "I remember when he first walked out here at minicamp before we broke up, I was like, 'Uh, we got us one here for sure.' He's just a freak of nature, just ripped up, has a body of a gladiator."

Hunter might get 23 sacks by himself this year.

First, let me give proper thanks to @BarrNone55. I had a long work day and logged in to see this generous gift of a Danielle Hunter thread  <3

And this picture too? It's like a cherry on top. I tell everyone that if I could build a man from scratch, this is where I would start.

And he's so good. Just damn!

It is without pads.  Hard to evaluate linemen without pads.
