.com's evaluations for the 16 teams
of the AFC appeared the week of July

is still over a month away. But here's
what you need to know about the where
and when of the Minnesota Vikings
Training Camp.
REPORT DATES:
Rookies July 29th, Veterans July 29th
CAMP
OBJECTIVES: The Vikings upgraded
their defense by leaps and bounds in the
offseason, and training camp will be the
time for all of the new elements to come
together under coordinator Ted Cottrell.
Tackle Pat Williams (Bills) and rookie end
Erasmus James (Wisconsin) will look to make
an impact on the line, linebackers Sam Cowart
(Jets) and Napoleon Harris (Raiders) will
compete for starting jobs, and cornerback
Fred Smoot (Redskins) and free safety Darren
Sharper (Packers) will be responsible for
improving a unit that ranked 29th against
the pass in 2004. On offense, quarterback
Daunte Culpepper must learn to work with
first-round pick and wideout Troy Williamson
(South Carolina), who will be asked to fill
the man-sized shoes vacated by the departed
Randy Moss. Outside of the passing game,
new coordinator Steve Loney must settle
on a running back to take the pressure off
of Culpepper. Candidates include former
starters Michael Bennett and Mewelde Moore,
along with fourth-round draft choice Ciatrick
Fason (Florida). On special teams, the Vikings
signed former Bear Paul Edinger to compete
with kickoff specialist Aaron Elling for
place-kicking duties, and will look for
one to emerge before the team breaks camp.
PRESEASON SCHEDULE:
vs. Kansas City (8/12); at N.Y. Jets (8/19);
vs. San Diego (8/26); at Seattle (9/2)
