Minnesota Vikings Current Front Office

Later today, the Minnesota Vikings will introduce Nolan Teasley as the team’s new general manager. I’m guessing that one of the first question asked of Teasley at the press conference will be if he will have final say on the 53-man roster. That’s always one of the first question asked of a new GM as everyone wants someone to blame when things go awry. Perpetual critics hate a collaborative team structure because they can’t point a finger at a single person. This should be a moment of hope for the Vikings, a change in the right direction, and some are thinking only of a potentially unfortunate moment in the future. The media honks asking the “final say” question were likely around for the dreaded “Triangle of Authority” days that came out of the general manager hire in the first year of the Wilf ownership. Putting the team’s decision-making power in the hands of the head coach, personnel person, and salary-cap person wasn’t out of the ordinary 20 years ago. The all-powerful general manager wasn’t as much of a thing in the early 2000s. Having that joint setup wasn’t really a problem. Putting a name on it was. Putting a name on something that doesn’t go well isn’t just a mistake. It becomes legendary and not in a good way. People will remember it. After hiring Teasley, the Wilfs spoke of him joining head coach Kevin O’Connell and executive VP Rob Brzezinski as the team’s top decision-makers. Nearly all of the 31 other teams in the league have a similar structure. Building a team in today’s NFL is a collaborative thing. The Seattle Seahawks team that Teasley just left is an excellent example of a collaborative, team-building environment. They just won a Super Bowl. At some point, even in the most collaborative environment, there’ll come a time when one person has to step up and make a decision. I’m more than 99% certain that when he’s asked, Nolan Teasley will say that he’ll make that decision. And he and the Vikings will live with the consequences. 

After today’s peppering of questions, the first task facing Nolan Teasley as the Vikings new general manager will be the people that will populate the building. The first tough decisions probably include the job status of the assistant general managers Ryan Grigson and Demetrius Washington. The Vikings had dual assistant general managers as each had a particular expertise. Grigson is the long-time scout. Washington’s focus was analytics. My guess is that Washington is more likely to stay with perhaps a re-worked title. My further guess is that Teasley brings in a person, or more, with him from Seattle. 

Before any potential changes occur, here’s how the Vikings front office currently looks.

Unsigned Draft Picks: By Round

The 2011 Collective Bargaining Agreement made the signing of draft picks a fairly breezy process. Each of the teams have their process and the players are signed when the teams wanted to get it done. In recent years, getting agreements with players selected in the second round became a little problematic. Agents for those players decided that they wanted to get contract guarantees similar to those previously reserved for players selected in the first round. It appears teams and agents have worked out those issues as the second-round signings are sailing along. Here’s a look at the unsigned draft pick status for each of the seven rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft. The first round, of course, is shown in detail.

Nolan Teasley Thoughts

As the Minnesota Vikings general manger search wound down, Seattle Seahawks assistant general manager Nolan Teasley had emerged as my favorite for the job. It’s a funny thing as my initial list of preferred targets didn’t include him. My favorite in February and my favorite up until he removed himself from the process was Los Angeles Chargers assistant general manager Chad Alexander. After that, my favorite eventually landed on Teasley. Vikings ownership ultimately had five finalists for the job.

Rob Brzezinski - Minnesota Vikings interim general manager

John McKay -  Los Angeles Rams assistant general manager

Terrance Gray - Buffalo Bills assistant general manager

Reed Burkhardt - Denver Broncos assistant general manager

Nolan Teasley - Seattle Seahawks assistant general manager

In February, I looked at the front office of the Seattle Seahawks. They’d had about a a dozen years of success. A Super Bowl win in 2013 and another in 2026. Those 13 years were the 13 years Nolan Teasley spent with the team. In February, I skipped past Teasley and circled VP of Player Personnel Trent Kirchner as my preferred Seahawk for the Vikings GM job. My reasoning of favoring Kirchner over Teasley was the 27 years the former had scouting in the league. When Teasley was a Vikings GM target rather than Kirchner, I dove further into Teasley’s career. I think the Vikings lucked out in running an unusual May GM search. If they’d waited until to the 2027 offseason, there would’ve been competition for Nolan Teasley. Now, they have him and the team’s future feels a whole lot brighter. 

At a Sports Management conference earlier this year, Nolan Teasley was asked what separates a good evaluator from a great general manager. His answer:

Being open minded and organized are the two things I’m gonna tell you. Because when I think about our process and how we make decisions on player acquisition- I don’t have enough hubris, I’m not arrogant enough to tell you I’m better at watching football than you are- but I do have a process and I think my superpower is the ability to take in information from a lot of different people that have different areas of expertise, then implement that and build a process off of that, that ultimately leads me to try and make sound decisions in a short period of time.“

The first time I saw that response, it gave me chills. The Daily Norseman posted it in their dive into Nolan Teasley and it gave me chills. The fact that he has a self-realized superpower is one thing. The fact the superpower involves collaboration and listening to the input of others shouldn’t be a startling thing. Media and fans want the name of one person that’s making all decisions. I have truly come to believe that people desire one person to blame when things go to shit. They accept collaboration when it results in wins and championships. They thrive on blaming one person when the wins don’t come. Throughout this offseason, Vikings interim general manger Rob Brzenzinski stressed collaboration and reaching a consensus. Many found it annoying. I believe that they found it annoying because a consensus eliminates their singular target. Anyway, the media and Vikings fans now have one to person to blame if the Vikings season, any Vikings season, goes off the rails. Here’s hoping that there’s no reason for finger-pointing. 

Over 66 years of franchise history, the Vikings had hired only two general managers that climbed through the football scouting ranks. The first was Jim Finks. He has a bust in the Pro Football Hall of Fame for the Super Bowl teams he built in Minnesota. The second was Rick Spielman. 66 years of Vikings football and only 26 of them were guided by an individual with legit football team-building experience. Nolan Teasley is the third. It’s a damn shame the Vikings had spent so much time being guided by individuals that really had no business building an NFL team. It’s as much a reason as any for no Lomabardi Trophies being in that barren cabinet. That’s in the past. The now is a Vikings future guided by Nolan Teasley, Kevin O’Connell, and Brian Flores. 

Vikings Have A New General Manager

The end of May is an unusual time to hire a new general manage in the NFL. This has been an unusual offseason for the Minnesota Vikings. Yesterday, it was reported that the Vikings are hiring Seattle Seahawks assistant general manager Nolan Teasley as their new general manager. The Vikings finally have a full-time GM. 

Nolan Teasley’s first year with the Seahawks was the year the team won their first Super Bowl. His last year with the team was the year the team won their second Super Bowl. It’s a nice bookend. In his 13 years with the Seahawks, he learned how to build an NFL team and he learned what it takes to win. Building a team that competes is one thing. Building a team that wins is a whole other thing. Over the past 60 years, the Vikings have come so close to winning a championship so often that it’s a shocking thing that they’ve never just lucked into one. For a team that’s long been trying to win, it’s just seems like a good deal to bring in someone that has. 

66 years. Over 66 years the Vikings have hired two general managers with a history of football scouting. Jim Finks and Rick Spielman. Nolan Teasley is the third. There are so many ways to build a top-notch team. I’ll always believe that the person best able to build that team is one that focuses more on the player than the spreadsheet. 

A younger Nolan Teasley played running back for Central Washington. His football-playing career ended there. After six years with a marketing firm, he wanted football as his life’s work. Teasley sent letters to all 32 teams looking for a football job. Only the local Seahawks answered. He took advantage of his singular opportunity and turned it into career. Now, he’s the Vikings general manager. Thank you Seahawks for answering that letter. 

Nolan Teasley comes with pro and college scouting/evaluating experience. That isn’t a common combination. His peers consider him an “innovator” and a “grinder.” Many thought his GM opportunity would’ve come earlier. I’m not so sure about that as I’ve never seen Teasley as a target for any recent GM opportunities. Whether true or not, his opportunity to build a team was coming. If for no other reason, the Vikings making a GM search in late May might actually have been a good thing. If Teasley was their guy, they probably would’ve had serious competition for him next offseason. He was once voted the best talent evaluator in the league. That’s a very subjective thing. But it is a thing. 

Minnesota Vikings franchise fixture Rob Brzezinski was one of the candidates for the GM job. As the team’s interim GM through this unusual offseason and his nearly 30 years with the Vikings, he deserved consideration for the full-time job. I hoped that Brzezinski wouldn’t get the job because he was too important to be put on the annual chopping block. An NFL GM is always on the chopping block. Since the announcement of Nolan Teasley’s hire, it’s been reported that Brzezinski will continue in his role as executive VP. Teasley’s hire is a great thing. As great, is Brzenzinski’s continued role with the team. He will always be a great and very important presence within spectacular TCO Performance Center. 

It’s been an unusual offseason for the Minnesota Vikings but it’s been a productive offseason. From the field to the front office to the salary cap, the Vikings are in much better shape now than they were in January. Kevin O’Connell won a Super Bowl as the offensive coordinator of the Los Angeles Rams. Brian Flores won Super Bowls as a coach and defensive coordinator of the New England Patriots. Nolan Teasley saw a Super Bowl win as an intern and helped build a Super Bowl winner as the assistant general manager. Those three have come together as the top decision-makers of the Vikings. Now they are tasked with finally bringing Super Bowl wins to Minnesota. 

Unsigned Draft Picks: By Team

The 2026 NFL Draft was more than a month ago. That means that the 32 teams are more than a month into the task of signing their draft picks. Each team has a different strategy in approaching this fairly routine process. Some teams try to wrap up the signings before the players show up for rookie minicamp. Other teams have a more relaxed approach. For instance, the Miami Dolphins have signed none of their 13 draft picks. Here’s where each team currently stands in the draft pick signing process.

Vikings Quarterbacks

The Minnesota Vikings have a very interesting and talented quarterback room. 

J.J. McCarthy

Kyler Murray

Carson Wentz

Max Brosmer

Despite having the fewest career starts of the top-3, J.J. McCarthy gets top billing for being the returning starter. One only has to take a look at the past threes seasons to understand why the Vikings might want a quarterback room with three potential starters. Two of the seasons crashed when injuries decimated the position. In 2023, the Vikings started four different quarterbacks (Kirk Cousins, Jaren Hall, Josh Dobbs, and Nick Mullens). Dobbs was acquired in a trade just days before he was forced on the field. In 2025, the Vikings started three different quarterbacks (J.J. McCarthy, Carson Wentz, Max Brosmer). McCarthy and Brosmer took their first NFL snaps last season. Wentz missed the offseason and training camp as he wasn’t signed until late August. Less than a month later, he was making his first start for the Vikings. Two promising seasons were ruined when injuries wiped out the quarterback room. Hall and Brosmer, as late-round and undrafted rookies, weren’t ready for NFL regular season action. Dobbs and Wentz barely knew their teammates when they were forced to take the field. To prevent a repeat of those two disastrous seasons, the Vikings decision-makers decided to take advantage of unique opportunities to boost their quarterback room. With the Arizona Cardinals paying Murray nearly $40 million this season, the Vikings were able to add the talented veteran for a league-minimum $1.3 million. Wentz signed for $3 million. On the third year of his rookie deal, McCarthy is the most expensive quarterback on the roster at about $6 million. It’s a very unique opportunity for a team to have a quarterback room of this quality and potential for a combined salary of about $11 million. 

When pundits across the country questioned J.J. McCarthy’s Vikings future with the signing of Kyler Murray and then Carson Wentz, they completely missed the obvious. The Vikings don’t want a repeat of the 2023 and 2025 seasons. They don’t want a season torpedoed by injuries at the game’s most important position. They don’t want to play a game with a quarterback not ready to play. As much as improving the level of play of the starter, the Vikings wanted to improve the talent in the room. They also hope that the competition within the room will raise the level of play of whichever quarterback starts. 

A Vikings Quarterback Competition. 

Many in the media and fans scoff at the thought that the Vikings have a quarterback competition. Of course, it’s Kyler Murray. He may have signed for an insane bargain price but he’s a significant improvement over the young J.J. McCarthy. Maybe. Just because many doubt there’s a competition, it doesn’t mean there isn’t one. If McCarthy somehow outplays Murray, he should start. A coach that starts a player that hasn’t earned the job, simply because the media and fans says that he has on signing, should not be coaching. Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said that there’s a quarterback competition. Despite his saying that, every Vikings player and coach is still asked “is there a quarterback competition?” It’s one of those mind-numbing situations in which the damn question is asked despite the damn fact that it’s already been answered. Until O’Connell announces the starter, there’s a quarterback competition. Accept it. Believe it or not, it’s the situation no matter how many times the damn question is asked. 

In today’s NFL, drama always seems to be more important than the play on the field. My fear with this Vikings quarterback competition is that interactions between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy will get more attention than their respective play. The first offseason practice open to the media brought just that. Both quarterbacks played well on the field. That was put aside by many in the media and fans to the respective post-practice comments of Murray and McCarthy. Murray gave the typical “company” responses to questions. McCarthy answered them honestly and was criticized mercilessly for it. On-the-field, and off-, he can never do anything right in the opinions minds of so many. I’ve never seen anything like the coverage and criticism of McCarthy. It’s as if he’s somehow personally wronged his critics. Give the kid a break. He’s just trying to make a career in football. Let him compete for the Vikings quarterback job. Perhaps Murray wins it. Based simply on his experience and undeniable talent, he’s certainly the favorite. Just let the process play out. No matter who is named the starter, the Vikings will be better for the competition and the talent in the quarterback room. 

Second Round Signing Tracker

A recent pick-signing trend has been the difficulty in getting second-round picks signed. That’s because players, or their agents, have been trying to get some of the contract guarantees that had only gone to the players selected in the first round. Something has changed this year. Here’s a look at the pick-singing progress of the players selected in the second round.
