The Vikings of Minnesota struck big on two main free agent additions to the passage of pass last season in Jonathan Greenard and Andrew Van Ginkel. The franchise also selected the Rusher Edge Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins outside the Georgia during the fifth round of the NFL draft on Saturday April 26.
Minnesota took another post-Rôti swing on Tyler Batty de Byu, who NFL.com has classified as the N ° 1 free agent not drafted Edge Rusher available. Batty measures 6 feet, 6 inches high and weighs 271 pounds. He also displayed a 4.78 second dashboard time of 40 yards and a 34 -inch vertical to the combination of the NFL, while hitting 27 repetitions of 225 pounds on the bench press.

Lance Zierlein de NFL.com projected Batty as the prospect of sixth or seventh round, but noted important gaps in the defensive game as part of his screening report.

“He is densely muscular and plays with a constant assault to the point. He also jostles,” Zierlein wrote. “He has an instantaneous in his initial punch but does not have the length and speed of the speed to quickly move away from the blocks and will succumb to the electricity of the plasters. He creates a pressure with hops and stages in euros to gain ground. He has strong hands to throw the punch but will not beat the pro tackles of speed or power.
Batty will compete with the first round choices in 2024, Dallas Turner, Bo Richter and Gabriel Murphy for a place on the alignment of the regular season of Vikings in 2025.
