"Mr. Mankato" Candidates
These are the unofficial “Mr. Mankato” candidates from Vikings training camp, in my opinion:

CB Chuck Demmings
WR Myles Price
S Jacob Thomas
Demmings had an early lead but the other two have caught up. We might need tomorrow’s preseason game to decide it.

I thought Chuck D was a lock, but he's regressed to the rookie mean a bit.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
I don't consider Price a candidate.....did decently last year (sans the fumbles) and now seems to have taken a big step, so much in fact that he might get WR4. He's also not a rookie. The rookies who pop early almost always come back to the mean.
Perhaps silly in retrospect but I think a lot of us were getting big Chazz Shurrat vibes from Tai Felton. It's been great reading that he's flashing and isn't a lost cause.

I think his growth at WR makes him a candidate.
