DeGeare agrees to terms
Posted by: Chip Scoggins under Vikings, Vikings off the field Updated: July 28, 2010 - 11:26 AM
The Vikings and fifth-round offensive lineman Chris DeGeare have agreed to terms on a four-year deal, according to NFL sources.
That leaves only their second-round picks cornerback Chris Cook and running back Toby Gerhart left to sign. Both are expected to sign before the Vikings first practice on Friday.
DeGeare played multiple spots on the offensive line at Wake Forest, but he will begin his NFL career at guard. He has good size (6-4, 335 pounds) and his versatility should help him as he competes for a backup job.
