Vikings Add 13 UDFAs

May 1st, 2017 at 4:32pm CST by Connor J. Byrne

The Vikings have agreed to contracts with 13 undrafted free agents, reports Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune. Here’s the list:

Tashawn Bower, DE (LSU)
Dylan Bradley, DT (Southern Mississippi)
Aviante Collins, OT (TCU)
Nick Fett, OT (Iowa State)
Caleb Kidder, DE (Montana)
Wes Lunt, QB (Illinois)
Sam McCaskill, DE (Boise State)
Terrell Newby, RB (Nebraska)
Josiah Price, TE (Michigan State)
Horace Richardson, CB (Southern Methodist)

Bower ($45K) and Bradley ($40K) received the largest financial commitments of the bunch, tweets Tom Pelissero of USA Today. Bower set personal bests in tackles (34), tackles for loss (5.5) and sacks (four) last season. Bradley was more productive than Bower, albeit against inferior competition, with 64 tackles, 15.5 for loss, and 8.5 sacks in 2016.
