Fusco has played mostly RG with Minny, but played LG all of 2015. Has graded better has a run blocker than pass protector over his career. https://t.co/dIpJlxlDrE

Nice. This guy used to be a starter right? Had some injury issues. Good depth and camp competition at least.

He's played in 30 games the last two seasons, he was PFF's #62 Guard out of #77 last season. Hopefully a change of scenery does him some good.

nice competition. Seems like we got some real scrubs as depth but maybe one of them can really turn it around here.

Not a super athletic guard but experienced as a starter. This is just more competition, make everyone work a little bit harder to fight for a spot on the roster.

he's not a mauler , or possesses a lot of superior talent, but he does have some experience and could provide depth, I don't see him starting , but he could surprise us and come to camp in shape , ready to compete , the Viking's pass protection was shoddy last season , and their offensive line was a patchwork unit the majority of the season, who knows? ..this could be a good pick up?

Good veteran depth and pick-up. Was a solid starter in 2014 and got a $25million dollar extension. Struggled last two years in new scheme

Hopefully they could figure how to use him. Kinda worrisome when two of our big line signings are from the two worst lines in football in 2016. (Seahawks and Vikings)

they had a one dimensional passing attack last year, short quick passes out of the shotgun due to such poor pass protection and below average running attack , it was punishing watching them run the ball , their 2 running backs (McKinnon and Asiata) are your textbook 'If you need 2 yards they'll get you 3 , if you need 5 yards they'll get you 3" RB's ....Fusco will get an opportunity to earn a spot on the 53

At 305 pounds, I'm guessing he is a better fit here in the ZBS vs. the Vikings power?
