The Minnesota Vikings are approaching training camp and it is never too soon to speculate as to who the team’s 53-man roster will be composed of this year.

Training camp is just about to start for the Minnesota Vikings and players are ready to fight for their careers in hopes of landing a spot on the team’s 53-man roster or even a chance to prove themselves on the practice squad.

With so many talented players battling for a limited number of opportunities, that means many individuals will be left on the outside of those rosters looking in. But that also means they will hope to impress enough to get a look next year, get noticed by another franchise, or be next on the franchise’s list to call if an injury happens.

Still, there are going to be some surprise cuts, unexpected players making the team, and many others left looking for a way to continue pushing toward achieving their professional football dreams.

However, let’s focus on the positives and take a look at 53 players who likely will make the cut and be part of the Minnesota Vikings roster for the 2018 NFL season starting with the guys behind center.
