irish Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 04/09 13:26 Vikings: Smith will be welcomed back THE NEWS Running back Onterrio Smith will be welcomed back to the Vikings after a one-year suspension for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy, according to team owner Zygi Wilf. "The way this coaching staff responds to players, this would be the right environment for him to move his career forward," Wilf told the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Our View Chester Taylor sits atop the Vikings depth chart at running back at the moment, but with a new coaching staff in town it's plausible that Smith could challenge him for the top spot. More likely, though, he'll compete with Mewelde Moore and Ciatrick Fason for third-down duties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcmast Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 So who is out? They won't keep Taylor, Smith, Moore, and Fason will they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG SACK Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Onterrio will start there. He is the most talented back in Minn. They will end up with a big clusterfu*& though with a 4 way RBBC all year. You will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Once they signed taylor, I was hoping they didn't keep onterrio so taylor could possibly have a great year. Now if this news is true, all bets are off. Hopefully it's just coach/owner speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
