The NFL has rules about parallel coaching moves and tampering which is why you heve all these Assistant Head Coaches. Russ Grimm is an Assistant Head Coach for Pittsburgh even though he's really the O.L. coach. Other teams cannot hire him away as offensive coordinator without tampering. It would be considered a parallel coaching move. Likewise if Saunders becomes an Assistant Head Coach, the only way he, Bugel, or Williams could leave would be a head coaching job. In addition, if Breaux or Blache, who have the coordinator titles, leave, they would have to be either Head Coaches or Assistant Head Coaches.
Having said all that I don't see how it helps the Redskins all that much. Unless Larry Johnson, Trent Green, Willie Roaf, and Donte Hall come with, I don't see how Saunders schemes will improve the Skins all that much. What plays do they run that our current coaches aren't capable of diagramming? Their offense is derived from the same sources that ours is. Don Coryell, Ernie Zampesi, Sid Gillman, Norv Turner, Mike Martz, Joe Gibbs... they all run the same stuff. Saunders is entrenched in this school as well. Perhaps he is a better teacher, a better practice coach if you will, but I guess we shall see.
