Summer is here, and it is everyone’s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Vikings fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Minnesota.
Are we going to write about quarterbacks? Offensive tackles? Edge rushers? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Vikings, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Vikings fans can be the most informed fans.
So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.
Cam Coleman is one of the best athletes I have watched this Summer, regardless of position. The way he skies into the air and high points the ball almost makes him unguardable, as he can catch anything thrown his way. The catch radius is impressive, but the speed and smoothness with which he runs is just as great to watch unfold. Coleman is going to grade out as one of the best players I have watched this Summer, and he deserves everyone’s attention this Fall.
