The Minnesota Vikings didn't waste any time once the NFL Draft ended, signing an additional 10 rookie free agents on Monday according to a press release issued by the team.

The list includes former Wisconsin Badgers quarterback Joel Stave, as well as Minnesota Gophers defensive end Theiren Cockran.

A walk-on for the Badgers, the 6-foot-5 Stave threw for 2,687 yards and 11 touchdowns with 11 interceptions last season and finished his career as the winningest quarterback in school history with 31 victories.

An honorable mention All-Big Ten pick for the Gophers as a senior, Cochran had 28 tackles, seven for loss, and three sacks during his final season with Minnesota.
