Chad Greenway, a 16-game starter last season, and 10-game starter Erin Henderson appear to be locked in at two of the Vikings three linebacker spots. Marvin Mitchell, mostly a special-teams ace through four seasons in New Orleans and two with Minnesota, may have clamped down the third.
Former Packer Desmond Bishop, if healthy, figures to handle the weak side although he was running behind special-teamer Marvin Mitchell for most of camp. Bishop was an ascending player before a torn hamstring caused him to miss the 2012 season and now a groin has hampered him early with the Vikin
