Eden Prairie, MN (Sports Network) - The Minnesota Vikings have signed running back Toby Gerhart. The Star Tribune revealed Friday that Gerhart, the 51st overall draft pick back in April, was given a four-year, $3.767 million deal, according to league sources. The deal includes $1.939 million guaranteed, the paper said.
Gerhart was the runner-up to Alabama's Mark Ingram in the Heisman voting in 2009, rushing for 28 touchdowns as a senior for the Stanford Cardinal. For his effort, Gerhart won the Doak Walker Award as the nation's top running back.
With the signing, Minnesota has all eight of its draft picks signed and expected to make camp in Mankato.
