Presuming a 2011 NFL season actually exists, the Vikings are in good stead to take advantage of new rule changes in the NFL which will allow 46 active players suited up and eliminate the previously included emergency quarterback provisions.

If the Vikings acquire Marc Bulger or similar experienced quarterback to the roster, Joe Webb could be active and serve in a dual role as a receiver or quarterback, thus filling two roles from one active slot.  It's virtually like having 47 active players.  

There will no lnger be an inactive third quarterback who can come into the game in the event of injuries.
