Ready, Set....
The Vikings will welcome players back for their first day of the voluntary offseason program April 21 at TCO Performance Center in Eagan.
That’s just three days before the NFL draft begins on April 24 in Green Bay, Wis.
Their rookie minicamp for those players drafted or signed as undrafted free agents has not yet been scheduled. It will either be May 2-5 or May 9-12.
Vikings organized team activities (OTAs) will take place May 27-28, May 30, June 2-3, June 5 and June 16-18.
Mandatory minicamp will be June 10-12.
The nine-week offseason program is divided into three phases:
The first allows for only meetings, strength and conditioning, and rehabilitation work.
The second begins on-field work, excluding live contact or full offense-vs.-defense team drills.
Finally, OTAs — limited to 10 practice days over four weeks — allow for full team practices, though live contact is still not permitted. Teams can run 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills.
Returning players are only required to participate in the three-day minicamp; they face fines if they don’t. Skipping other parts of OTAs is often frowned upon, though.

Do they have enough arms to throw the football around at the end of April? ;) JJM and Rypien will be busy until the mystery QB2 is signed after April 29th.
Oh, they’ll bring in some future State Farm agent as camp arm for sure. Probably two. Lol, maybe KOC will do some throwing. He’s about the same age as Flacco.
