Vikings add cornerback

The Vikings added cornerback Jerron Wishom to the roster on Monday. Wishom struggled with injuries at Louisiana Tech. But he has the physical attributes that could make him a solid NFL player. He played in five games for the Green Bay Packers in 2005 and was with the San Francisco 49ers in 2006, although he didn't play in a single game.
Check out an NFL.com scouting report on him: "Wishom is a big, physical cornerback with excellent speed and tackling ability, but has been hampered throughout his career by an assortment of knee injuries. When healthy, he has shown the ability to be a shutdown-type of pass defender and will usually line up against the opponent's top receiver."
Wishom is 5 feet 11, 193 pounds. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.56 seconds and bench-pressed 330 pounds.
