The Minnesota Vikings\u2019 2025 training camp Schedule<\/a><\/p>\n Minnesota Vikings News and Links<\/p>\n 2014 NFL Redraft: Rebuilding the first round based on PFF grades and data<\/a><\/p>\n 8. Minnesota Vikings: WR Odell Beckham Jr., LSU (Round 1, Pick 12)<\/p>\n Original Pick: CB Justin Gilbert, Oklahoma State<\/p>\n Few players have gotten off to a more electric start in the NFL than Odell Beckham Jr. Lauded for his blazing speed and incredible hands, Beckham became an instant star with the New York Giants. Across his first five seasons, he earned a 92.6 PFF receiving grade that ranked fifth among all wide receivers.<\/p>\n Injuries shortened what could have been a Hall of Fame-worthy career, but Beckham did contribute to the Rams\u2019 Super Bowl-winning outfit in 2021. He\u2019ll forever be remembered for his highlight-reel plays in New York.<\/p>\n Note: They did not have the trade up pick at #32<\/p>\n Vikings Already Predicted to Cut Player They Just Signed<\/a><\/p>\n Ryan Heckman of The Vikings Age has a new piece out on Friday, July 4, about one brand new Vikings player who could split with the team before the season even starts.<\/p>\n That player is Giovanni Ricci. In the feature, he notes that Minnesota \u201csigned tight end Giovanni Ricci after minicamp. He was brought in near the end of June to offer added competition at the position, but the room is already fairly crowded, and, for that reason, he could have a long road ahead in making the roster.\u201d<\/p>\n Vikings\u2019 Justin Jefferson Reacts to Major Aaron Jones Announcement<\/a><\/p>\n On Tuesday, July 1, the NFL unveiled two of its Top 100 Players of 2025, and Aaron Jones made the cut at No. 98. Voted in by his fellow players, the veteran running back earned his fourth career appearance on the prestigious list. He was ranked No. 33 in 2020, No. 30 in 2021, and No. 64 in 2023 while with the Packers.<\/p>\n \u201cSeeing him on the opposite, you know, side of the ball in Green Bay and seeing how athletic he is and seeing how difficult he is to go down. It definitely feels a lot better seeing him in purple and gold than the green and gold,\u201d Jefferson said.<\/p>\n The star wide receiver also revealed the one trait that makes Jones a delight to have on the team.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s not the biggest. He\u2019s not the strongest. He\u2019s not the fastest, but he can run that ball,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Proposed Vikings signing adds former Bills\u2019 $21 million starter to address key need<\/a><\/p>\n Bleacher Report\u2019s Matt Holder thinks the Vikings should address their need by signing Buffalo Bills\u2019 free agent Rasul Douglas.<\/p>\n \u201cStaying within the NFC North, the Vikings could use some help in their secondary after deciding not to bring Stephon Gilmore back,\u201d Holder wrote. <\/p>\n \u201cJeff Okudah and Isaiah Rodgers are currently expected to start on the boundary, but those two were backups with the Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles, respectively, last season,\u201d he added. \u201cAdding Douglas would upgrade the cornerback room in Minnesota.\u201d<\/p>\n Kevin O\u2019Connell\u2019s next project for the Minnesota Vikings has a skill set perfect for his offense<\/a><\/p>\n Despite not being drafted, Brosmer comes to the Vikings with a hefty $236,000 in full guaranteed salary (a year salary on the practice squad) and a $10,000 signing bonus. That is a heavy signal that the Vikings like what the player is and think he will stick around.<\/p>\n When you look at what he is as a player, you can see the vision relatively quickly. Brosmer does what the Vikings do best: throw it over the middle of the field.<\/p>\n O\u2019Connell spoke highly of Brosmer after one of their rookie minicamp practices.<\/p>\n \u201cI think a lot of it was on display today. I mean, the starting point of just pretty efficient thrower of the football from a standpoint of fundamentals, technique, his ability to generate some pretty good revolutions and RPMs on the ball with pretty limited movement in the pocket. I have a lot of respect for P.J. [Fleck] and his staff and how they\u2019ve coached football over there, from a standpoint of his high football IQ \u2013 I think, shows up when he can really arrive here, spend a couple hours in meetings, and he\u2019s out there making corrections in the middle of a seven on seven walk through leading into a period or whatever it is. So you\u2019re already seeing a lot of the things that we really identified in Max to bring them into a quarterback room that we\u2019re really excited about. And I think he had a great first day, and looking forward to seeing now. And that\u2019s our whole group. That\u2019s everybody out here. Pretty efficient, solid first day, looked like football. That\u2019s always the starting point goal. But now, can we come back and do the things that pros do, which is come back and have an even better day tomorrow? And my expectation [is] Max will be one of the guys leading that charge.\u201d <\/p>\n Watching some Max Brosmer film and you can see why the Minnesota Vikings made him a priority UDFA signing. He’s not just willing to throw over the middle, he thrives in doing so pic.twitter.com\/ljt9X2Sw55<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Tyler Forness (@TheRealForno) July 2, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Vikings QB Gets Good News After Turning Heads Before Training Camp<\/a><\/p>\n The Minnesota Vikings may have a quarterback controversy of the backup variety if former Golden Gophers star Max Brosmer continues to make a strong impression. That is what Brosmer did during the Vikings\u2019 offseason program.<\/p>\n It will not be easy for the former New Hampshire Wildcats QB, but The Athletic\u2019s Alec Lewis described his spring as \u201cintriguing.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIntriguing is the best way to describe his spring,\u201d Lewis wrote on July 2. \u201cMultiple staffers raved about his ability to pick up small intricacies. His professional approach and ability to process should keep him in the league for a while.\u201d<\/p>\n Brosmer was a veritable steal for the Vikings.<\/p>\n After getting to see him in their own backyard last season with the Gophers, they signed him as an undrafted free agent after the 2025 draft. NFL.com\u2019s Lance Zierlein projected Brosmer as a sixth or seventh-round pick.<\/p>\n \u201cConfident, cerebral quarterback with average traits who proved he could play at the FBS level. Brosmer has an average arm but throws with anticipation and a sudden release. His ball placement needs work to become more accomplished against tight man coverage,\u201d Zierlein wrote before the draft.<\/p>\n \u201cHe can pick apart zone coverages with intermediate throws. He\u2019s asked to read and attack coverages, and can do so when in rhythm, but his production nosedives when the pocket heats up and he\u2019s forced to move. Brosmer\u2019s lack of mobility and second-reaction playmaking hurts his chances, but he should be appealing to a play-action based offense utilizing levels route concepts.\u201d<\/p>\n
