Vikings promoted director of player personnel George Paton to assistant general manager.

Paton was reportedly one of two finalists for the Rams' vacant general manager position, with Falcons director of player personnel Les Snead being the other. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the job was Paton's "to lose." It's possible Paton's decision to stay in Minnesota was due to the fact that new Rams coach Jeff Fisher is expected to have final say on all personnel moves.
