The Minnesota Vikings<\/a> have roughly over $13 million in cap space (h\/t Over the Cap<\/a>) and a new general manager in Nolan Teasley. As a result, could Teasley want to make a move to shore up any weaknesses he might see on the team with mandatory minicamp on the horizon? <\/p>\n One area that might be of concern for the Vikings is the pass rush. This offseason, Minnesota traded Jonathan Greenard<\/a> to the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>, allowing Dallas Turner to have a more prominent role in replacing Greenard\u2019s production. Nonetheless, could Teasley want more depth so as not to put all the pressure on Turner?<\/p>\n A potential veteran free-agent name who makes sense for former Vikings linebacker Ben Leber is Cameron Jordan<\/a>. <\/p>\n \u201cCam Jordan has been the ultimate pro throughout his entire career,\u201d Leber said in a June 7 video on his YouTube channel<\/a>. \u201cIs he going to give you a lot of juice? Is he going to give you double-digit sacks? No, he\u2019s not. But he\u2019s going to be the voice that everybody listens to\u2026<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d probably put Cam No. 1 [as a potential veteran free agent target]. Plus, his pops played for the Vikes. It is neat, and it would be fun. I would consider myself a younger head, not an older head, and I think that\u2019s kind of a fun full-story moment.\u201d<\/p>\n Vikings Could Still Use a Game Wrecker on Defense<\/p>\n Moreover, Leber\u2019s co-host in the video, Cy Amundson, noted that he believes the soon-to-be 37 year-old still has plenty left in the tank, especially after last season. <\/p>\n \u201cThe crazy thing about Cam, and I don\u2019t know what to make of it, after being a monster for a bunch of years, he had these three or four down years in a row, and then last year at 35, he puts up 10.5 sacks,\u201d Amundson added. <\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s not nothing. And I think ideally, whoever this guy is, and I think you\u2019re right to put the attention here, because if all of a sudden Dallas Turner goes down in Week 2, you kind of go, \u2018Oh, you\u2019ve got a pretty good defense with a pretty important spot that is lacking for a period of time.\u2019 <\/p>\n \u201cSo, you kind of want, you remember Everson Griffen\u2019s last productive year where he wasn\u2019t the guy, but every time he came on the field, you\u2019re like, \u2018God damn, he wrecked that play.\u2019 And I think Cam Jordan has that to him.\u201d<\/p>\n Cameron Jordan Can Still Make on Impact<\/p>\n Last season with the\u00a0New Orleans Saints<\/a>, Jordan played 589 total snaps,\u00a0earning a 76.0 overall PFF defensive grade<\/a>. Moreover, the veteran generated 36 total pressures, 10 sacks, 21 hurries, one forced fumble, and five QB hits. Meanwhile, against the run, Jordan recorded 31 solo tackles.<\/p>\n Moreover, the Vikings\u2019 new general manager, Nolan Teasley, comes from the\u00a0Seattle Seahawks<\/a>, where the team leaned on pass-rushing depth to fuel its Super Bowl run. Because of that, Teasley might want to follow that blueprint in Minnesota.\u00a0<\/p>\n It will be interesting to see if Minnesota sees Jordan as a fit for Brian Flores\u2019 defense and whether the veteran can replicate his production from last season. <\/p>\n \n\t\t\tEduardo Razo<\/a> Eduardo Razo is a sports writer for Heavy.com, covering the NFL, MLB, and college football.
