Vikes sign Sam Darnold

Maybe, but I wasn't commenting on the path but where we ARE. The original comment was, "The Vikings have a young, talented team why waste the next 2 years on Sam Darnold? Jacoby Brissett, Joe Flaco and Russell Wilson all would have been better choices." That is asserting that we are effectively in the infamous "Win Now" mode, and all these talented players will be held back by Darnold. 2/3 of our team is at about Darnold's level.

To your question: are we on the right path? Hard to say, but at best we're not too far down the path. 5 of those good players were left by Spielman, so I don't know if Kwesi is proceeding down the path quickly enough. I think a contender needs about 2/3 of the starters to be "good", and "good" means players who could start for most NFL teams. We're 7-8 guys short. Like I said earlier, KAM now needs to add 4 each of the next two offseasons.  Maybe there are players on the roster who can develop: Ty Chandler, maybe Ingram, maybe some defensive players (Jaquelin Roy, Andre Carter, Mekhi Blackmon?) will step up the way Metellus did last year. 

So far, I don't think KAM is getting us there fast enough. If we make a massive trade of draft picks to get 1 player, even a QB, I really doubt he can.
