I almost feel bad for Minnesota Vikings fans. First, they have to come to grips with the fact that they traded their franchise, all-star quarterback for a Miami draft pick and now they’re getting one of the worst personnel men in the NFL who held his last job with that same Miami team.
The Vikings are looking to upgrade from Fran Foley who was fired after the latest draft with only three months under his belt. This reminds me of a job bank of NFL executives that just rotate from one team to another. How does a savvy personnel person move up to one of these vaulted positions? There has to be a talented scout out there somewhere that has more brains than Spielman. Right? Remember, this is the man that inked the infamous A.J. Feely deal.
Well Vikings fans, good luck with Rick. You’re going to need it.
