My prediction of the Vikings 53-man roster following the Vikings last pre-season game
Ok, pre-season is officially in the books. Player evaluations will be coming quickly over the next couple days, and final decisions made by coaches and GM. Here is my prediction:
QBs
Teddy Bridgewater, Shaun Hill, Taylor Heinike
RBs
Adrian Peterson, Jerick McKinnon, Matt Asiata
OL
Matt Kalil, Brandon Fusco, John Sullivan, Mike Harris, TJ Clemmings, Joe Berger, David Yankey, Austin Shepherd, Zac Kerin
TEs
Kyle Rudolph, Mycole Pruitt, Rhett Ellison, Chase Ford
WRs
Mike Wallace, Charles Johnson, Jarius Wright, Cordarrelle Patterson, Stephon Diggs, Adam Theilen
DL
Everson Griffen, Sharriff Floyd, Lionel Joseph, Brian Robison, Tom Johnson, Shamar Stephen, Danielle Hunter, Scott Crichton, Justin Trattou
LBs
Chad Greenway, Anthony Barr, Gerald Hodges, Eric Kendricks, Audie Cole, Brandon Watts, Edmond Robinson
CBs
Xavier Rhodes, Terence Newman, Captain Munnerlyn, Josh Robinson (PUP), Trae Waynes, Josh Thomas
Ss
Harrison Smith, Robert Blanton, Antone Exum, Andrew Sendejo
STs
Blair Walsh, Jeff Locke, Kevin McDermott
---------------------------------------------
Close call, but I think Stephon Diggs wins the PR position, based on upside potential over Sherels as well as current performance- and can be a bigger contributor elsewhere than Sherels.
