The Vikings have wrapped up their OTAs and minicamp work and now they head into training camp next month, what could the roster look like? Dissecting the team’s thoughts on it all is tough to do but we tried our best after all the reports and discourse around the team.

There are tough decisions to be made for rookies and veterans alike. For some Vikings, 2023 will be their final season in that uniform. Others will find themselves making the roster after being on the bubble.

This projection is not a true indication of how things may go but rather an early preview of how things could shape up on both sides of the ball.
