Define not as big of an influence as we thought. He was hired to be a talent evaluator. Sure he had the title of GM, but we knew he was being brought in specifically to evaluate talent. We also knew Gruden would be involved, (but Scot would have final say) as might Allen to an extent, although his role was more business/managing the front office related. So are we saying Scot's role in evaluating talent was minimal from the start? We just hired a strictly talent evaluator kinda guy to have a minimal role in talent evaluation? He wasn't in the negotiating room, not with Schaeffer/Allen handling that. Schaeffer probably does all the salary cap related legwork anyways, Allen was probably the final decision maker on that side. Don't take it personally Matty, but it sounds like you're trying to give Gruden/Williams/Allen most of the credit for player scouting.
