As far as picking players, they were saying that will be in large part Mike Shanahan's job. That concerns me a bit. He wasn't a great personnel guy in Denver by any means. Shanahan will also likely be team president. I guess I'm worried about how expansive his role will be. I'm much rather he just coach, but then again if that's all we wanted from him we probably couldn't get him.

This is what has always confused me. One would think the HC and coaching staff would know what type of players they need to fit into their system. I guess it's nice to have scouts to go out and look at these players and physically get an idea of how well they play and how well they might work out, but to have a GM totally picking your players when he's not the one coaching them is crazy to me. Plus with Cerrato when he was here he is more of a WCO GM or where he hailed from. Norv, Marty, Spurrier, and Gibb2 are not WCO style of coach's which I would assume make Cerrato's duty even harder. Maybe why Cerrato did better the last 2 yrs with Zorn....Thomas, Davis, and Ganther.
I'm guessing to ease all your minds Shanahan will present who he would like to both DS and Allen and all three will decide. Kinda like what Gibbs was doing.
