Why would you care what happens to Iowa?
Funny thing is I'm pretty sure that in any other year were Vinny isn't our GM/Director or whatever he is then we'd see the Redskins as a major contender for Pioli's services. However as has been mentioned before, with the Chiefs, he has:
1. A large compliment (or so I believe) of high draft picks.
2. $30 million of cap space to play around with
3. Intriguing Free Agents along the lines
4. A chance to assemble a coaching staff
5. A chance to work for a storied franchise
6. And of course ridiculous compensation.
If he had come to the Redskins he would have had to deal with
1. 4 draft picks
2. A lot less then $30 million of cap space
3. Limited money to sign free agents
4. A coach that would be difficult to justify firing after going 8-8 in his first year.
5. A storied franchise, ok well thats good..
6. Of course he would get top dollar, maybe even more then the Chiefs were willing to pay.
