Tyler Nielsen is a guy who Mike Mayock pegged a 'sleeper' before the draft and went as far as to say he could emerge as a starting strong-side LB in the league. Another great signing with 'sleeper' appeal is Tydreke Powell out of UNC.The Vikings’ UDFAs:
Boise State defensive tackle Chase Baker, UCLA running back Derrick Coleman, Florida Atlantic defensive end Kevin Cyrille, Nicholls State cornerback Bobby Felder, Bowling Green receiver Kamar Jorden, Penn State defensive end Eric Latimore, Iowa linebacker Tyler Nielsen (pictured), Cal defensive end Ernest Owusu, Hawaii linebacker Corey Paredes, Vikings guard Austin Pasztor, North Carolina defensive tackle Tydreke Powell, Missouri defensive tackle Terrell Resonno, Mississippi State center Quentin Saulsberry, Oregon tackle Darrion Weems, and South Carolina cornerback C.C. Whitlock.
All in all, the Vikings acquired 25 total rookies this weekend. Not bad, not bad at all.
