While the team doesn’t induct someone into the Ring of Honor every year, there are some players that should be put up there sooner rather than later.To review, here is the complete Minnesota Vikings Ring of Honor as things stand right now:LB Matt BlairRB Bill BrownS Joey BrownerCoach Jerry BurnsWR Cris CarterDE Chris DolemanCoach Dennis GreenDE Carl EllerGM Jim FinksRB Chuck ForemanCoach Bud GrantS Paul KrauseDE Jim MarshallG Randall McDanielWR Randy MossDT Alan PageDT John RandleOT Korey StringerLB Scott StudwellWR Ahmad RashadQB Fran TarkentonC Mick TingelhoffOT Ron YaryTrainer/Historian Fred ZamberlettiLast season, the Vikings made Coach Green a member of the Ring of Honor, the 24th man to be given that distinction. So, who should be #25? Here are a couple of suggestions that would appear to be worthy.Grady Alderman, OT - Unfortunately, this would have to be a posthumous induction, as Alderman passed away in April of 2018. After spending his rookie year with the Detroit Lions, he was brought in by the expansion Vikings in 1961 and, in 14 seasons in Minnesota Brett Favre Jersey , started 177 games at left tackle. He was a six-time Pro Bowler for the Vikings, as well as a first-team All-Pro in 1969 and a second-team All-Pro in 1965.Anthony Carter, WR - Carter had an outstanding career for the Vikings, leading the team in receptions in five of his first six seasons with the team. He had a ridiculous 1987 season, where he averaged a ridiculous 24.3 yards/catch in the strike-shortened year. In the playoffs that year, he put up what might have been the best individual performance in a playoff game in Vikings’ history, catching 10 passes for 227 yards in the team’s 36-24 upset of the San Francisco 49ers. Carter is fourth in Vikings’ history in receptions (478), and is third in team history in both receiving yardage (7,636) and receiving touchdowns (52).Steve Jordan, TE - With apologies to Kyle Rudolph, Jordan is the best tight end in Vikings’ history. He’s caught more passes than any Viking not named Cris Carter or Randy Moss, as his 498 catches put him third in team history. He’s also currently sixth in team history with 6,307 receiving yards. Jordan was drafted by the Vikings in the seventh round of the 1982 NFL Draft Adam Thielen Jersey , and he spent his entire 13-year career in purple.Kevin Williams, DT - After the 2003 NFL Draft, Williams was the guy that the Vikings took when they “screwed up” their potential trade with the Baltimore Ravens on draft day. I bet a lot of teams wish they could “screw up” a pick this badly. All Williams did in his 11 seasons in Minnesota was be named a five-time All-Pro and a six-time Pro Bowler, as well as a member of the NFL’s All-Decade team for the 2000s. He collected 63 sacks from the defensive tackle position, and even managed an impressive five interceptions. The one strike against Williams might be that he hasn’t been “away” long enough, as he retired after the 2015 season. He should be in Canton someday, but the Ring of Honor would be a nice consolation prize. . .for now.Antoine Winfield, CB - The player that might be the best free agent signing in Vikings’ history, Winfield spent nine years with the Vikings after playing five seasons with the Buffalo Bills. A three-time Pro Bowler as a member of the Vikings, he was widely regarded as the best pound-for-pound tackler in the league during his career, and was an outstanding player for the Vikings despite his lack of size. Like Williams, he might have a disadvantage based on how long he’s been out of the game, as his last season was in 2012.Roy Winston Stefon Diggs Jersey , LB - Another lifetime Viking, Winston was drafted by the Vikings in 1962 and played 15 seasons for Minnesota, retiring following the 1976 season. He is one of 11 players to play in all four of the Vikings’ Super Bowl appearances, starting in the first three.Those are a few suggestions for players that could. . .and, probably, should. . .be a part of the Minnesota Vikings’ Ring of Honor. If the team is going to induct their 25th member this season, who should it be?Vikings backfield: Who’s Roc Thomas? I don’t know about anyone else, but watching rookie running back Roc Thomas tear it up against Denver was exciting to watch. The 22-year old undrafted free agent from Jacksonville State University made a statement on the field that he belongs at the next level. He didn’t get many touches, but he did manage to turn some opportunities into scoring drives. He grabbed three passes for 102 yards and two touchdowns. One touchdown came when Trevor Siemian threw a screen pass to Thomas. That’s when you see what kind of wheels this kid has, he converted that pass into a 78-yard touchdown.He only carried the ball eight times for 29 yards, which is about 3.6 yards per carry. Thomas’ competition, third year running back, Mack Brown carried the ball 11 times Harrison Smith Jersey , for 34 yards. Brown only had one reception for no gain. Last season in twelve games at JSU, Thomas rushed for 1,065 yards and 13 touchdowns on 178 carries. Five times he managed 100-yard games. He didn’t have to many receptions as a Gamecock, Thomas had 21 receptions for 244 yards.Thomas only played two seasons with JSU after he transferred from Auburn. He ran for 475 yards, three touchdowns and grabbed 17 passes for 227 yards during his two-year stint with Auburn. Having depth at any position is always a good thing, but the goal is to be comfortable with any guy you put out there. That’s why I believe having Dalvin Cook, Latavius Murray and Thomas could be lethal. Thomas would make a good replacement for Jerick McKinnon. Both players are very similar in size. Thomas is 5-foot-11, 198 pounds and McKinnon is 5-foot-9, 205 pounds. Thomas is only 22 years young, so he’ll have plenty of time to develop. Thomas even took to Twitter to have some fun with EA Sports:I know I’m not the only one who wants to see Thomas get the ‘Roc’ more.
