The Facts: The Vikings have signed their first WR during this free agency period. Aromashodu is returning on a one-year deal. "Going back to Vikings," Aromashodu texted to the Pioneer Press on Friday, March 23.
Diehards Line:Aromashodu will likely return as the team's No. 3 or 4 receiver, depending on what happens in free agency. The Vikings have Percy Harvin, Michael Jenkins and presumably will select a receiver in the first three rounds of April's draft. Emmanuel Arceneaux and Stephen Burton are developmental receivers whose roles could increase next season. Aromashodu (26 catches, 468 yards last season) produced three games of more than two catches in 2011, but his value came in the form of 18.1 yards per catch. Aromashodu has played six NFL seasons - two with the Indianapolis Colts, three with the Chicago Bears and one with the Vikings - but is only 27.
