Vikings loaded with talent at wide receiver

MANKATO, Minn. -- When seven-year veteran wide receiver Mike Wallace arrived in Minnesota, he knew little about Charles Johnson. He barely had heard of Adam Thielen.

Wallace was acquired by the Vikings in March from the Miami Dolphins. He had no idea then his new team had so much depth at receiver.

"I'm a lot more impressed now than when I got here," Wallace said at training camp. "I didn't know much about (Minnesota's receivers) when I got here. But I like (Johnson) more every day. Thielen is a really good football player, and he's like your fifth or sixth guy.
