When looking toward the future, there are a lot of different options to consider. Organizations like the Minnesota Vikings have a plan in place to excel for the next generation. The plan might be an ideal situation, but you have to be flexible with the plan.
In trying to build the future of the franchise, there will be some inherent risk in identifying the quarterback of the future. That decision doesn't scare Adofo-Mensah and he said as such in his pre-NFL draft press conference.
"Just because something is risky doesn't mean you're scared of it. It's uncertain and we've got to take our swing, but that doesn't give us any pause."
The Vikings are primed to go and get their quarterback of the future and that itself has brought up a lot of discussion about risk. Is paying a first round pick in 2025 worth it to get your quarterback?
That is heavily debated among fans and analysts. The reality is this: if the quarterback hits, it doesn't matter. Adofo-Mensah isn't afraid of the risk, but it also doesn't mean he's going to be reckless.
