The Vikings will wrap up their offseason workout program this week with a three-day mandatory minicamp that begins tomorrow. Before we know it, they will be reporting to Mankato for training camp, playing preseason games then traveling to Nashville for their regular-season opener.
Believe it or not, that Week 1 game against the Titans is just 13 weeks away.
So with that in mind, and with the 2016 season looming already here in the middle of June, I reached out to fellow beat writer Mark Craig, Vikings team leader Chris Miller and digital sports senior writer Michael Rand for their way-too-early predictions for the upcoming season.
