Vikings to bring in 15 Undrafted Free agents

While Spielman declined to say who they were looking at during his post draft interview, the list has been leaked of what undrafted free agents the Vikings are looking to sign the players are:

Boise State defensive tackle Chase Baker
UCLA running back Derrick Coleman
Florida Atlantic defensive end Kevin Cyrille
Nicholls State cornerback Bobby Felder http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iouG1wF0huU
Bowling Green wide receiver Kamar Jorden http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv_93CgznhA
Penn State defensive end Eric Latimore
Iowa linebacker Tyler Nielsen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWuqn74vfPA
California defensive end Ernest Owusu
Hawaii linebacker Corey Paredes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6umktv1QsM
Virginia guard Austin Pasztor
North Carolina tackle Tydreke Powell
Missouri defensive tackle Terrell Resonno
Mississippi State center Quentin Saulsberry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps5mXrtFuLI
Oregon offensive tackle Darrion Weems http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiCN---3JzI
South Carolina cornerback CC Whitlock

I posted video links for those that I could find. Some of these look to have some promise to them. Maybe find a diamond in the rough here? Some of the names above have previously been on the Vikings radar including Iowa LB Tyler Nielsen who had a good showing at the scouting combine.
When looking at the list of undrafted free agents, however, it's too bad we couldn't get CB Chase Minnifield (2nd Round Prospect), RB Chris Polk, FS Janzen Jackson, OL James Brown, OL Levy Adcock, OL Desmond Wynn, DT Nick Jean-Baptiste, DT Dajohn Harris and the list goes on. There was a lot of talent not taken including some day 2 prospects.
