I think people would be surprised how few coaches are involved in setting the rosters, other than in a consultant role. Outside of the top guys it’s not viewed as their job.

Depends on the coach. The Rams trading for Stafford all began with McVay.

I think some coaches earn that but not all of them are really good talent evaluators. PHL gave Kelly the green light and he destroyed the team.

Believe whatever you want to believe and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Damn whatever anyone else says and damn the facts. The Jones boys are clearly calling all the shots.

He is involved but he is one voice along with Jerry, Stephen, Will, Kellen, and Dan.

Agree completely. Belicheck, Andy Reid, I would assume a guy like Sean Peyton all had final say on any roster decisions. That is certainly something coaches have to earn however. For every coach that succeeds in the do it all role you have twice as many Chip Kellys, Urban Meyers, Bill O'Brians, etc. Even Bill Parcells had his famous grocery line when he didn't have any authority on the roster.

Yeah, you nailed it. Don't most coaches just coach the team they're given? The one's that get involved are more of an exception to the rule, not the norm.

There is no way anyone can convince me, that MM has any influence in FA, I mean either he is just as dumb or dumber than our FO, or he has absolutely no say so whatsoever in trying to sign FA's for this team, sad but true!! which makes it official, he is another puppet HC under Jerry! that's all

100% the Jones boy puppet. You think he went to these two clowns and asked for players?

You just figured this out? He had to keep Kellen and had to fire his friend he hired as DC after year 1.
