You have Snead, McVay and Phlips.
Assuming Snead is the final say, he has to understand needs as expressed by the head coach...yes he has the most influence...but D means Philips may have influenced McVay enough to ensure a need on defense in vital.
If we go off the range...trade up...or do something out of the box...and take another offensive weapon...well...
I love this time of the draft...when the rubber meets the road.
The Rams do all their arguing and debating and influence-mongering and so on when they stack their board, and they've already done that. It's now a consensus thing.
BTW in terms of coaches with influence, it's not just McV and WP. It's Kromer too.
But....they've already agreed on all their preferences. They will just stick to the board. They have also already discussed what they would do in different scenarios. Again the point is a collaborative approach.
