Which players will make the 53 man roster of the Minnesota Vikings and which ones will find themselves looking for a job elsewhere this season?

It’s that time of year when many players head to training camp to find out if they can make their NFL dreams come true. That is no different for the Minnesota Vikings, who are looking to assemble the best possible roster for the 2019 season.

While many of the talented players from last year will return, there are plenty of positions where there will be some openings for new faces to join the team in hopes of bouncing back following missing the playoffs last year.

Those battles will be won and lost during training camp and the preseason games. However, it can be a lot of fun to speculate how it will all shake out and look ahead to the regular season…as most fans typically are at this point.

Let’s take a look at each position grouping and see which players should make the 53-man roster this year. Of course, some of the decisions are up for debate, so let’s have some fun with the projection!
