KOC and Flores get control of the draft and free agency.  There is more than enough time for the Wilfs to interview and hire a new GM but looks like they don't have much say anymore.  And Brzezinski needs to stick with managing the cap and let a personnel guy make football decisions.

There'll be talent there regardless for the 2026 season. Where the pressure will be is on the starting QB for 2026. It'll be amazing how 'well' the rest of the team performs with good QB play and a modicum of healthy players.

Former #Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is considering filing a class action lawsuit against the Vikings.

Class action? That's a group of people to suing a defendant collectively.

And it was followed by a campaign of media leaks designed to paint Kwesi as responsible for every bad thing ever and somehow making all the qb decisions at TCO while poor innocent Kevin sat by idly.  Laughable.  Anyone who thinks every QB decision in that building wasn't running straight through KOC also believes in the tooth fairy.   Not only that but stories came out in the aftermath of the firing with a lot of interesting tidbits, including pretty clear indications that the draft process the last few years was largely run by KOC and the coaches, so don't be surprised if we produce another dud this spring despite the removal of evil awful failure deluxe bad drafter and all around horrible human being Kwesi.
