If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: Do not blame Vinny for the draft mis-steps of 2005, or for the terrible personnel moves of 2006 (Archuleta, Duckett, B. Lloyd, overpaying Randle El). Gibbs had the authority then that Shanny has now. Gibbs had the final stamp of approval on all personnel matters during his second run as HC. I recall his glowing report about Jason Campbell's character and physical skills. Had GB passed on Rodgers, there's no guarantee that Gibbs would have taken him over Campbell, especially given other personnel gaffes that occurred during that period.
