[QUOTE="nelanator, post: 245384, member: 889"] I think that other teams will be more inclined to look at pre season game tape than reports from their mini-camps when preparing to face the Vikings. The teams in the earlier half of the schedule will be paying more attention, of course. But if they are practicing something with no intent of using it in any games I would be inclined to believe that they are wasting their own time more than they would be wasting the time of other teams. The drafting of Percy Harvin is very strong evidence that they will be running the Wildcat at least for a few plays this season. He's not a running back, and he will be a work in progress as a receiver in the NFL, but figures to have (he's not proven anything in the NFL of course) game-breaking ability with the ball in his hands. The Wildcat would be their best option in terms of utilizing the skills that he has right now, which is as an explosive, versitile offensive player that defenses have to account for at all times. In the Wildcat he could theoretically be a strong threat to run, catch, or even throw the ball on any given play. A month or so ago the Vikings said that they had drawn up at least 20 plays designed for Harvin alone. I would think that at least a couple of those plays are run from the Wildcat. [/QUOTE]
