2012 DRAFT GUIDE

	#85 Greg Childs
		Pos: Wide Receiver NFL Team: MIN Injury: OK		Experience: Rookie College: Arkansas Height: 75 Weight: 217 Born: 3/10/1990

Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #211All Players: #636

Childs is a big receiver that does well on deep routes because of his size and athletic ability. He really doesn't have great speed despite making many big plays in college. His biggest attribute is his size. He needs to learn the position better, though, and continue to make progress as a receiver. He is far from a finished product right now and should serve a reserve role with the Vikings his rookie season.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Childs tore the patella tendons in both of his knees during a preseason scrimmage. He is out for the year and his career could be in jeopardy.

He has been able to do some cutting, jumping and sprinting at this point but is not close to 100 percent yet. He said he will not rush back and is not sure if he will be ready for the start of training camp.

Minnesota Vikings WR Greg Childs (knees) said his rehab from two torn patellar tendons is going well but is not sure if he will be able to take part in offeseason workouts. 'Everything's coming along good,' Childs said. 'I'll definitely be back. It's not even a question or whatever. It's just mainly me continuing doing what I'm doing out here, continue my rehab, continue to stay focused and just getting ready to go.' Childs said it took him 18 months to feel normal after he torn one of his patellar tendon in 2010.

Minnesota Vikings WR Greg Childs (leg) screamed in pain as he hit the ground in practice Saturday, Aug. 4, suffering an apparent leg injury. Childs immediately began screaming, and he was tended to by four members of the training camp. Eventually, he was lifted onto a cart. It was not immediately known if it was the same leg in which Childs tore the patella tendon during his junior season at the University of Arkansas.
Fantasy Impact: Early reports are he suffered a major knee injury and is done for the season. We'll keep you posted.

Jul 17 12:33 am

Minnesota Vikings WR Greg Childs (knee) was slowed in 2011 as the result of a torn patellar tendon suffered in 2010. Offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave is looking to take advantage of his speed, as long as he is healthy. 'He's got the speed to get down the field. But he also has the size to muscle little DBs at the same time,' Musgrave said. 'We're counting on the human body healing up. With the significant injury he had, it's usually a 15-to-18 month healing process. And he's just getting to that threshold.'
