Life is what we make it.
Just watched the full Vikings game on a Game Rewind. This kid pounded us, ran hard, and looks strong as an ox. Runs with power and attitude a la Moreno. Yes, he isn't that fast but he looked to be extremely tough to bring down. Looks like he could be available and the Dolphins need more tough guys on the squad. What would you think about a Miller, Asiata, Williams trio next year?

Matt Asiata rushed for 91 yards on 19 carries and caught two balls for 17 yards in the Vikings' Week 17 win over the Bears.
A fullbackish grinder, Asiata wound up spending most of the 2014 season as Minnesota's feature back due to Adrian Peterson's suspension and Jerick McKinnon's injury. Asiata finished with 164 carries for 570 yards (3.48 YPC) and ten all-purpose touchdowns, to go with 44 receptions.
Asiata can pass protect and gets what's blocked, and for those reasons he may have a long NFL career. But he isn't a starting-caliber running back. The 27-year-old will be a restricted free agent in March. We suspect the Vikings will tender Asiata at the lowest possible level, or not tender him at all. Dec 28 - 4:37 PM
