Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, I salute you

Mark Wilf emphasized collaboration and communication in the beginning stages of the interview process. I think this is going to be a great fit. 

God I hope so, VG!  He sounds like Ted Lasso to me. Loved that show but it’s a fantasy. I’m glad he has a sense of humor and good people skills but can he evaluate talent? The whole Poles-to-Bears thing reminds me of the year we got leaped over in the draft by a couple of teams and then drafted Kevin Williams —saying he was our choice all along. I hope Kwesi Adofo Mensah turns out to be just as great a choice. I’m totally willing to climb on board but it’s a great leap of faith!

My son is absolutely ecstatic over this move. Go big or go home. Time to try something new. 

Not official yet...and as Vikings fans, we know it needs to be official

Young guy. If he's as good as we hope he is then he should be in Minny for a long time.

First signing working the Google in the internet NFL analytics machine?

My spell checker is going nuts.  Going to have to add him as a word.

Of course we have to wait for it to be official. It feels like a good move to me. They need something different than the same old, same old.

I think Adofo-Mensah is also going to be helpful with the serious money decisions that have to be made. At this point, it can't be about loyalty. There are some big money changes that need to be made.

The dude is 32 years old, and is a former basketball player.

He is actually 40. Just sayin 

40 is the new 32

Its a huge leap of faith hiring someone who's never played pro football, never been a scout, and who's background is economics and analytics. Hoping the Wilfs are more interested in winning games then collecting pats on the back from the commissioner with this hire and they know what they are doing. I'll get behind whomever they end up hiring, but count me as super skeptical if it's Mensah.
