Guess that could be the case, but my impression of the relationship was always that Gibbs made personel decisions but Vinny was the executor of the deals. This explains why so many draft picks went out the door during Gibbs II & during the Zorn years. e.g. it wasn't so bad that Vinny got Jason Taylor, but for a 2nd & 6th that was a steep price to pay. All the trades during Gibbs' time were lopsided & not in our favor.
