The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to terms with fourth-round pick Ray Edwards and fifth-round selection Greg Blue. Minnesota now has two of their six draft picks signed.

Edwards, a 6-6, 270 pound defensive end, skipped his senior season at Purdue to enter the draft. In 36 games with the Boilermakers he registered 83 tackles, 24.5 tackles-for-loss and 16 sacks with one interception.

Blue, 6-2, 216 lbs., was a consensus All-American safety his senior year at Georgia. In 49 career games, the former Bulldog had 260 tackles, two interceptions, one sack, two forced fumbles and two recovered.

Minnesota is set to open training camp for rookies and select veterans July 27, with the rest of the players reporting July 30.
