Vikings Draft Safety Tyrell Johnson in 2nd Round
The Viking Age | A Blog For Minnesota Vikings Fans — It was bound to be a quiet day for the Vikings after they traded their first-round pick to the Chiefs as part of the Jared Allen deal. They did end up making a tiny bit of noise though, by making a deal with the Eagles to trade up a few slots in the second round. For a second, it seemed they might be entertaining taking either Chad Henne or Brian Brohm. But instead they went with Arkansas State safety Tyrell Johnson . Here are the vitals on Johnson: Height: 6-0 Weight: 207 40 time: 4.41 Was named Defensive Player of the Year in the Sunbelt conference. Tied for 12th in the country with 6 interceptions. Was rated the best overall safety ...

Vikings Take Tyrell Johnson
Minnesota Vikings — I’ll admit it…when I saw the Vikings leap from #47 to #43, I had a suspicion that they’d take Brian Brohm. It wouldn’t have been the most rational pick for the Purple — but one may have viewed the trade as an attempt to move ahead of Chicago so the Vikings could nab Brohm before the Bears could get their paws on the Louisville quarterback. (Of course, the Bears stayed away from Brohm even though he was available when they were on the clock.) But that didn’t happen. The Vikings opted to select safety Tyrell Johnson from Arkansas State with the 43rd pick in the draft, and I don’t mind this ...

Mixed Feelings About Tyrell — The Ragnarok
I'm of two minds about the Vikings' decision to trade their fourth round pick (117th overall) to move up in the second round and draft Tyrell Johnson, a 6'0", 206lb safety from Arkansas State. I like the addition of Tyrell (yes, I will be referring to him by his awesome middle name and I might even break out his equally cool first name, Marcellous, sometimes), but I'm not sure I like the fact ...
