The Vikings evaluation of the Strong Safety position continues with the news that Chris Crocker (ex Bengals) is going to get the start for the Vikings against the Cardinals. Kurt Coleman (ex Eagles) started against the Raiders and Robert Blanton has featured prominently with the first team at training camp.
My guess is that Blanton gets the gig for passing downs and Coleman on rushing downs but what that means for Jamarca Sanford and Mistral Raymond is anyones guess. Draftee Antone Exum may struggle to make the team, but I would expect him to pick up a training squad spot.
I know it's early days, with a couple of important pre-season games to go, but to say the SS position is undecided is an understatement.
