In my experience, people wanted me to say which project I would like to work on in their lab and why. It is VERY important that you are very, very familiar with the projects and work done in the lab. You may also want to be prepared to defend you grad work once again, especially if you are working on something not so main stream. And yes, deffinitely talk to the people in the lab, but if you have a chance, ask people who are not in the lab. Remember, misery loves company and if people are not happy, they won't always come out and say it (until you show up to start your postdoc).
