Hypothetical question - If KAM is CANned...

[Canthony]

Honestly, I think very little. The team is going to want to see this through, and I think that means seeing what McCarthy does in his 2nd year before making any kind of wholesale changes to leadership, whose contracts have ink that isn't even dry yet.

I personally think he is gone. However, their scouting department needs a serious restructure and Grigson is gone I believe no matter what.

A guy can dream right?

In the 2022 draft he traded our first round pick to the Lions. Then looking back at that draft we see it is the worst draft the Vikings have ever made.

I seriously doubt that trading down to a division rival in the first round has ever happened in the history of the NFL.

Yah, my spidey senses aren't tingling about KAM being gone...I dont know how much is tied to the team performance the remaining 4 games or not?

I think these last four games are significant when it comes to whether the Wilfs retain or shitcan Kwesi. I'd wager as follows;

O-1 wins- fired
2 wins- maybe
3-4 wins- retained

Remember, the Wilfs fired Childress the very next year after giving him an extension, so there's precedent by ownership to go that route. They also shitcanned Spielman after an 8-9 season, so if we go 5-12 or 6-11 on top of just spending 300 or so million in free agency, I'd say Kwesi is toast and rightfully so. Combine that with his draft record and how do you justify it otherwise if you are the Wilfs?

Honestly don't know that we should be looking at team W/L when it comes to Kwesi.

After three full drafts, In terms of player personnel, I see a lot more L's than W's

If I were the Wilfs, I’d be getting aggressive right now.  Kwesi’s formula isn’t translating the way he expected, and IMO, the scouting department needs a serious overhaul.

A few candidates who intrigue me for better or worse:


Andy Weidl — Steelers Assistant GM

• He’s spent time under Ozzie Newsome and Eric DeCosta in Baltimore and was Howie Roseman’s right-hand man in Philly.  He has 24+ years of scouting experience and helped shape the Eagles’ turnaround starting in 2016.  His philosophy centers on finding the right fit and building cohesive teams, not just collecting talent.
  

Jon-Eric Sullivan — Packers VP of Player Personnel

• He’s worked his way up Green Bay’s scouting department since interning in 2003.  He became a major part of their draft room around 2016.  While the Packers’ draft classes haven’t always blown me away, the organization has been consistently well-run for decades.
  

Alec Halaby — Eagles Assistant GM

• I’m intrigued by his background, but after the Kwesi experiment, I can’t help seeing him as a “Kwesi-lite.”  Smart, analytical, Ivy League (Harvard this time), but more of a complementary strategist than a true leader.  The résumé is great; the fit… I’m not convinced.
  

John McKay — Rams Assistant GM

• He’s been involved in some of the best drafts of the past few years.  As Director of Pro Scouting from 2021–2024, he helped assemble a roster with 20–25 solid contributors still on the team.  That track record speaks loudly.
  

Chad Alexander — Chargers Assistant GM

• He’s worked with both Harbaugh brothers; what more needs to be said?  Okay, fine, he’s also an Ozzie Newsome protégé.  That alone puts him on the shortlist.
