Well, here it is. The official unofficial 53-man
roster projection, posted before Friday night's
preseason game against Dallas (which, admittedly,
renders these projections almost useless).
I'm going out on a limb with a few of these,
most notably keeping QB Tarvaris Jackson over
John David Booty (barring a trade before Saturday),
CB Karl Paymah over Marcus McCauley, and LB
Kenny Onatolu over Erin Henderson.
The Paymah and Onatolu predictions are almost
certainly dead wrong. But whatever. The Vikings
like both of those men on special teams.
