As a senior, Boyd was given an All-Big 12 nod after registering 67 tackles Minnesota Vikings Jerseys 2019 , 4.5 tackles for loss, 16 pass breakups and an interception in 14 games.His cousin, Bobby Taylor played cornerback for Philadelphia and Seattle from 1995-2004 and was named a Pro Bowl corner in 2002.At 5-foot-11 and 201 pounds, Boyd ran a 4.45 40-yard dash at the combine. Boyd is the second defensive back taken by Minnesota in 2019, joining Wyoming safety Marcus Epps (sixth round, No. 191).Mitchell is coming off a monster junior season in 2018 with the Ducks. He broke Oregon’s single-season program record and led the Pac-12 with 1,184 receiving yards on 75 receptions, scoring 10 touchdowns. In three seasons at Oregon, Mitchell tallied 119 catches for 1,710 yards and 14 touchdowns. He also returned 21 punts for 125 yards (6.0 average).The 6-foot-1, 197-pound receiver ran a 4.46 40-yard dash.Minnesota dipped into the receiver pool again by selecting Johnson, a 6-foot, 204-pound pass-catcher out of Colorado State. A 1-2 punch at the receiver position with Preston Williams, who was not drafted Irv Smith Jersey Cheap , Johnson caught a career-best 54 passes for 796 yards and four touchdowns last season.Over his four-year career, Johnson hauled in 125 receptions for 2,019 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also returned 26 punts for 170 yards (6.5 average) and, like Mitchell, could be a candidate to take over the Vikings’ primary punt returner role after veteran Marcus Sherels departed to New Orleans in free agency.Cutting, who was Air Force’s primary long snapper from 2016-18, joins Kevin McDermott as the two long snappers on Minnesota’s roster. McDermott has been with the Vikings since 2015.The Vikings spent their first four picks on offensive players — center Garrett Bradbury (18th overall), tight end Irv Smith Jr. (second round), running back Alexander Mattison (third round) and guard Dru Samia (fourth round) — then added tackle Oli Udoh in the sixth round and the two receivers in the seventh.Minnesota addressed special teams with Cutting in the seventh round.Minnesota used four picks on defensive players — linebacker Cameron Smith (fifth round), along with Arkansas defensive tackle Armon Watts and Wyoming safety Marcus Epps in the sixth round and Boyd in the seventh.The 12-man draft class is Vikings’ biggest since the NFL began its seven-round draft format in 1994. Seeking a solution for their longtime kicking trouble, the Minnesota Vikings have acquired specialist Kaare Vedvik in a trade with the Baltimore Ravens.Vedvik has kicked and punted for Baltimore, which was set at those positions with standouts Justin Tucker and Sam Koch. The Ravens announced on Sunday they obtained an unspecified draft pick in the deal, pending a physical exam for Vedvik, and the Vikings released veteran long snapper Kevin McDermott later to make room.Vedvik was expendable to the Ravens because of the consistency and excellence of Tucker and Koch Irv Smith Jersey Womens , and the league-wide interest in the native of Norway and former Marshall University kicker and punter increased after Vedvik went 4 for 4 on field goals in Baltimore's first preseason game on Thursday. One was from 55 yards, and Vedvik also made a pair of extra points and punted twice for a 55.5-yard average.The Ravens announced the trade just minutes before Vikings coach Mike Zimmer spoke to reporters. He declined to acknowledge the deal."If we indeed made a trade, it's to try to get better guys, wherever we do that," Zimmer said.Minnesota currently has veteran kicker Dan Bailey, who missed seven field-goal attempts last season with a career-worst 75% conversation rate, and punter Matt Wile. By cutting the incumbent McDermott, the Vikings have turned over the long snapper role to rookie Austin Cutting, a seventh-round draft pick from Air Force. They've been trying different holders in camp, too, creating more instability in a kicking unit that has struggled often during Zimmer's five-plus-year tenure.Bailey connected on all four of his extra-point attempts and didn't have a field-goal try in the first preseason game on Friday."Honestly, I really like Dan Bailey," Zimmer said. "I think he's a very professional, mature kid. We've been having some issues with the three Irv Smith white jersey , the snap, hold, kick kind of thing. And having two long snappers, I think that's added to it a little bit because the timing is different. The holding we're working on quite a bit. I like Dan."Wile, who was the holder last year, was tied for ninth in the NFL in 2018 with a 41.5-yard net punting average. He punted twice Friday for a 42.5-yard average."The first punt was inside the 20, but not by much," Zimmer said. "I think he should have got it closer to the end zone on that one. I think he's been better this camp. Directionally, he still needs to work on going to his left. But I think he's done better this camp."Vedvik spent the entire 2018 season on the non-football injury list for the Ravens after he suffered serious injuries to his head and face as the victim of an apparent assault the day before final cuts were made. He told police then he didn't remember what happened."A lot more emotional than I thought it was going to be," Vedvik told the team's website after Baltimore's game on Thursday. "A lot of anticipation. It's been a long year building up to come back to this moment again. I love football. I love sports. Getting back on the field, it's a different feeling."
