I agree a potential replacment for VC would never overrule Gibbs. Gibbs runs the ship and he has final say. I am fine with that. Gibbs is doing a good job of turning around the team. However back in the 80's we had Bobby Beathard, but under him we had a very good assistant Charlie Casserly and a group of scouts that were credited for fairly consisantly finding incredible hidden gems like Joe Jacoby, Monte Coleman, Darryl Grant, Jeff Bostic to name a just a few. Beathard like Gibbs today run the draft, but the guy under Gibbs (VC) has not been producing year to year. It wasn't until Gibbs arrived that it has started to change. We can respectfully disagree on this point, but VC has had his chance and I do not see any great track record. After a certain amount of time it is good to make changes when things are not working well. especially when there are other great talent evaluaters out there. It is not like VC is the only guy available. Just my humble opinion, that is all. I am not trying to be an ass about it nor do I hate VC. I just think it is time for a change. Which is the title of this thread.
