Tuesday Training Camp Thoughts

.Dustin Fox out 4-6 Weeks. Fox had been impressing the Vikings quite a bit. Look for him to fall behind a bit, and this will leave Ken Irvin and Willie Offord in back-up safety roles.

. Aaron Eling I guess has pulled ahead in the race to be kicker. The big reason is distance on kickoffs.

.Nate Burleson is really looking good due to his outstanding balance.

.Nat Dorsey has disappointed the Vikings with his conditioning.

.Kelly Campbell really stood out in his first day of practice, with his speed and return abilities.

. Erasmus James needs to get in camp, for him to make an impact as a nickle-rusher.

. The Vikings front-four is basically dominating the Offensive Line. The Williams' are too hard to control. To Illustrate this as stated in this morning's Star Tribune http://www.startribune.com/stories/510/5538020.html

For those interested in karma, here's how the first full-pads series between the first-team offense and first-team defense went:

Play 1: Daunte Culpepper scrambles for 5 yards.

Play 2: Culpepper sacked.

Play 3: Culpepper sacked.

Play 4: Aaron Elling 51-yard field goal.
