Should that mean that Trent is safe? No. I'd have fired him along with DP. 

But the fact Baalke's still there tells me Doug was very likely a strong voice in some of those personnel decisions.
It was a horrible free agent haul and bad enough to send the GM packing regardless of collaboration IMO.
But here we are waiting to see if he squeaks through a coaching search without a parachute.

Yeah you make a good point with the collaboration. I actually agree with the system Shad talks about. The HC identifying what we need to improve on the roster and the GM and owner working to get those pieces. I'm sure there will be disagreements about players and areas to focus on over others and I'd be intrigued to know who, if anyone, has the final say over such decisions where they disagree.

The HC is the guy directing the coaches and co-ordinatiors and spending every day with the players, I think he should have a big say in who we bring in and what areas we address. Again your right when that was a subject they spoke about quite a lot that means Doug probably did have quite a big say in those additions.

Appreciate you tho NYC. Always respect your opinion when talking football and even when we might not agree, it's always a good chat expressing why you feel that way.
