Good read on Bisi...
How Bisi Johnson’s study habits prepared him for a role in Vikings offense
EAGAN — Every year around draft time you will see some type of TV bit where successful NFL players read reports from draft analysts that turned out to be dead wrong. It doesn’t look like Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Bisi Johnson will have a chance to do that because, in his case, they nailed it
NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein wrote of the Vikings’ seventh-round pick in 2019: “Football character, intelligence and core special teams ability give him a chance to find work early and eventually become a dependable WR3.”
With an injury to Chad Beebe, Johnson has stepped into the WR3 role behind Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen and quickly become a dependable receiver. Since Beebe’s injury, Johnson has had back-to-back four-catch weeks, producing 35 yards through the air against Chicago and 43 last Sunday in New York.
“I think the biggest thing he’s done is he’s been very reliable,” head coach Mike Zimmer said. “He gets to the right places, he can play all three positions so he gets himself in the game and does a good job in all areas.”

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
This has been a productive draft class already. At some point, we'll start running those TE screens to Irv Jr...Mattison has been as good as advertised...for those who wanted the kid from Bama, he's been inactive most of the year...Odoh might end up being the RT next year...

He already looks the part of a polished NFL receiver; especially for a rookie. I like him.
