SteelKing728 1,484 Posted August 12, 2017 I'm thinking that's it for Bishop Sankey, who had a good camp with us this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heimdallr 2,215 Posted August 12, 2017 Sankey has a confirmed torn ACL, so he is gone. I don't see Cobb being anything more than a camp body though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Such a shame. Cobb most likely will be, barring injury, but at least it would be a dream come true for him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteelKing728 1,484 Posted August 12, 2017 On Saturday the Vikings announced that the club has signed free agent RB Bronson Hill, and waived (injured) RB Bishop Sankey. http://m.vikings.com/news/article-1/Vikings-Sign-Free-Agent-RB-Bronson-Hill/b077f9a0-57bd-43c6-8ee3-b65b614b1503 Not a significant signing, but maybe he makes our PS if he does well.

I guess that means Cobb didn't make the team? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swede700 2,369 Posted August 15, 2017 Quote Former 49ers cornerback Tramaine Brock has been cleared of domestic violence chargers and will begin visiting NFL teams to find his next employer. Brock’s first visit is setup with the Vikings’ Friday night opponent, the Seattle Seahawks, but sources have linked Brock to the purple as well. http://vikingswire.usatoday.com/2017/08/15/vikings-linked-to-former-49ers-cb-tramaine-brock/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SemperFeist 3,403 Posted August 15, 2017 Would be an excellent depth signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robbroy45 54 Posted August 16, 2017 Based on what I saw, Brock signed with Seattle after his visit wrapped up with them. Bummer, he would've been a great 3rd or 4th corner here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newman is the depth CB, assuming Alexander is the nickel. Brock would essentially be a healthy scratch every week barring injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hard to say that with how much of a fan I am of Waynes, but Brock is dang good. Most likely situation is Brock if he would of ended up here is he would be our #1 slot corner leaving Alexander being a scratch. If it wasn't for the domestic violence situation he would of ended up with a pretty hefty contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
