For anyone wanting to post articles, reports, thoughts, questions, etc regarding the first day of rookie camp - here's the spot to do it. Only a one hour practice today.

 

Also - for what it's worth - rookie camp roster limit is 75 + non-counters (current year draft picks and a max of two other non-counters defined by eligibility) and we currently have 82 bodies. As far as I know, counting draft picks and the two non-counters, that maxes us out so you won't see any additions prior to camp other than Richards and Waggoner.

 

Wednesday, May 27—Rookie Camp

Practice: 3:15 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.

Cameras can record practice from 3:15 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Still photography of practice can begin at 3:25 p.m.

AHHHHHH! IT'S FINALLY HEEEEEEEEEEEEERE!!!!!!!!! #LetTheGamesBegin

This is going to be great. 

We are expecting to have 40 players in the rookie camp.

Scratch what I said about the roster because apparently I'm hearing we added another receiver to the rookie camp roster.

Greg Childs out of Arkansas. Spent a couple weeks with Toronto last year on the PR.

 

Can't confirm yet though. Sorry. I guess we'll see later.

One of the best day's of the year, the start of camp (even if it's not the main camp it's still football)!!!!!!

If his knees can hold up he is a very talented guy.

Was drafted by the Vikings in 2012 in the 3rd round

This is the guy that the Vikings drafted along with Jarius Wright. I was excited about his potential for the Vikings when he was drafted in 2012 (ran a 4.39 40). He hurt both knees (both knees had a torn patellar tendon in TC) and missed the entire 2012, 2013 seasons. Hope he has recovered enough, he's still only just 25..

Ahh yes they took Josh Robinson in the 3rd then picked up Childs in the 4th. Its been a few years.

I just want to say in advance that any reports will be appreciated, tremendously.

Childs compilation ... I do like his number

 

@Bradley22Randle: Man I have another Skol brotha up here with me Greg Childs. I took this picture when we were with the…

As a Vikings fan I had pretty high hopes for Childs. Hopefully he can come in a compete.

 

In the same vein, I know a lot of people are writing of Randle's chances. He seems extremely excited to be a part of the setup here (if you follow him on social media). I hope that he has a fire in his belly to make a big impact, cause I know he has it in him.

Maybe because Richards has yet to show up?

Oh happy day! Camp is breaking! Rookies! Yayayayay!

83 - 10 non-counters = 73

 

non-counters - Chungh, Richards, Morgan, Normand, Lattanzio, Warden, Yantz, Waggoner  + 2 (Griffiths and Reaves?)

 

Childs will make it 74 and another room for 1

Wait, no Richards yet?

No camp for another couple hours yet....we'll know more in 2 hours.

Doh. Why did I think camp kicked off at noon.
