OC has been spending his time gameplanning not scouting college players You think we traded Buck and drafted Kinlaw b/c that was Saleh's vision?
I'm pretty sure ShanaLynch got an earful once they disclosed the Buckner trade plan to Saleh. Sure Saleh doesn't have the last word, but they'd be idiots not to ask the DC's opinion on defensive issues. In fact they probably already knew what Saleh thought even before the Buckner trade was thought up. That's how good coaches usually manage things. The HC, contrary to what you think, isn't a one man operation.
