Vikings remain fluid in their search for a new GM

The Minnesota Vikings are flying blind, to an extent, into the NFL Draft in a year that is more pivotal than most in the recent memory of the franchise.

The team fired general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah after the Senior Bowl and pivoted to Executive Vice President of Football Operations Rob Brzezinski as their new leader. However, reports suggest the coaching staff is having its hands all over the NFL Draft, but that doesn't mean they can do it alone. CBS Sports' Zachary Pereles discussed this, as April is a big month for the team ahead of a pivotal year, as we discussed.

Pereles discussed some of the big decisions that have been made, writing, "The Vikings made some of the biggest headlines in January when they fired GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and in March, when they signed Kyler Murray. Could they again produce a major storyline in April? First, they still haven't found a full-time replacement for Adofo-Mensah. Executive vice president of football operations Rob Brzezinski is serving as interim GM, and he will continue to do so through the draft. Only then will a full search begin. But Brzezinski has made several big calls this offseason, including signing Murray and exercising Jordan Addison's fifth-year option."

Brzezinski has made those decisions, so is this the team's way of saying we trust you going forward? We have not heard anything, and shouldn't until after the NFL Draft, which is next week. So while April is a big month for the team, May is going to be even more monumental.
