Vikings Fans Predict Kwesi to Make Moves and Add Picks During NFL Draft Weekend
As the Minnesota Vikings head into the NFL Draft weekend, anticipation is growing around the team’s approach, and Vikings fans have high expectations for General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah. According to the latest SB Nation Reacts poll, fans are hoping for a flurry of activity as the Vikings look to capitalize on their four draft picks and potentially add more during the event.
The poll results show that a majority of fans—54% to be exact—believe the Vikings will be active and manage to turn their current four picks into six by the end of draft weekend. Another 33% are optimistic that the team will secure five picks, although this would likely be seen as a bit underwhelming for the fanbase. Only a small group, 7%, expect the Vikings to stay with their current picks, while a hopeful 6% predict that Kwesi will pull off something remarkable, possibly acquiring seven picks, channeling the team’s former GM Rick Spielman.
As the Vikings are currently armed with only four selections, these numbers reflect the hope that Kwesi Adofo-Mensah will work his magic, leveraging trades or deals to improve the team’s draft positioning. Whether or not they’ll hit the magic number of six picks remains to be seen, but fans are certainly eager for the team to make some strategic moves.
Of course, the Vikings won’t pick until later in the first round, but that hasn’t stopped the buzz around what could unfold over the course of the weekend. Speculation is already swirling, including rumors that the Chicago Bears—one of the Vikings’ NFC North rivals—may attempt to move up in the draft to secure top running back Ashton Jeanty, which could give the Bears a significant boost.
In the meantime, Vikings fans are staying on top of the latest draft rumors and predictions, with particular interest in how the Top 5 picks will unfold. With draft weekend nearly here, the excitement is building, and one thing is clear: Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is expected to be busy, and Minnesota fans are hoping he’ll make the most of the team’s draft capital.
