The Facts: The Vikings want to push the ball deep in Norv Turner's offense. He is playing flanker right now, but he said after the Vikings' organized team activity on Wednesday that he expects to move around the offense. Wherever he is, Wallace expects to feel more at home than he did in Miami. "I think it's more so [like] my first four years," Wallace said. "It's a vertical offense, [rather] than a short, West Coast offense. You go down the field a lot more here, more what I'm accustomed to."

Diehards Line: Wallace spurned the Vikings for the Dolphins two years ago because the weather wasn't to his liking. Back then, the offense wouldn't have been, either. But by the time Wallace landed in Minnesota, as the result of a trade in March, he'd joined a team with an offense that should fit him much better than the one he left behind in Miami. Wallace is among the purest of burners, a receiver whose best asset has always been the straight-line speed to burn defensive backs down the field. Teddy Bridgewater said he has been spending extra time with Wallace each day, working on routes they ran in practice. The Vikings will use Wallace in a variety of ways -- HC Mike Zimmer has pointed out how dangerous Wallace can be on screen passes, too -- but his deep speed is probably the primary reason he's in Minnesota now. "We’re glad to have Mike," Bridgewater said. "He’s going to add some speed to that room and all of those guys are going to continue to elevate their games."
