1. Chad Greenway. Small town dude who made it big in the league and has led the Vikings in tackles for years. Supremely underrated player who would have been more well-known in other uniforms. Glad he's a Viking.
2. Josh Robinson. This kid is pure effort at he cornerback position. He plays with his heart on his sleeve and puts every last ounce of effort he has into coverage. He's the kind of player you want at the cornerback position.
3. Cordarrelle Patterson. Can't fault a freak athlete who understands that he's a work in progress and refuses to be a diva.
4. Matt Asiata. Fans keep saying that Minnesota doesn't have a running game with Asiata toting the rock. I firmly disagree. One thing that Asiata does that AP has never done is very very rarely get stopped for negative yardage. Adrian could bust for 30+ on any given down, but would balance that out with quite a few negative rushes in each game. Matt Asiata constantly moves the offense in the right direction. I love that I very rarely see 2nd and 12+ for the Vikings anymore, barring a penalty. Asiata is by no means a stud running back, but he's very very solid and his style is conducive to successful offense. Plus, he's practically a lock near the goal line.
5. Xavier Rhodes/Harrison Smith. Both of these cats are turning into elite secondary players.
Who's everybody got?
