When Coach Gibbs returned it became HIS team. Do you really think Gibbs has been overruled on even ONE decision since he got here? Same goes for GW. This is HIS defense. I'm quite sure Clark, Arch, Carter, etc. were all his decisions. All the front office did was do everything they could from a financial standpoint to get these guys signed up.
I'm not saying we haven't made some bad moves in the last couple years. You guys can debate them to death if you want. But please put the blame or the credit where it belongs - on the coaching staff.
The last bad move I can attribute to the front office was breaking the bank for Lavar instead of Champ. Of course it was a pretty bad move...

do you honestly think he has time to personally scout every player they sign (or that he's even good at that, since it's not really his job)?
he has to delegate, he already overhauled the scouting dept. once, but i'm pretty sure vinny and that FO still have a lot of say, simply because he doesn't have time to go over 800 college players and 200-400 FAs every year.
