So the shakeup in Washington begins. Vinny Cerrato the VP of Football Operations for the Redskins announced he is stepping down. Was he fired or did he step down? I guess we'll find out but this is the second time Cerrato is leaving the Redskins.
This move is no surprise. This will free up a football Czar position similiar to what Bill Parcells has in Miami. With Jim Zorn being next after the season ends the rumors will start who will be the next coach of the Redskins. Knowing Daniel Snyder he will want a big name. Jon Gruden was rumored to be linked there but he signed his extension with ESPN and said he does not want to coach for 2 or 3 more years. Mike Shanahan could be an option but I think he has his eye on the Chicago job (where Jay Cutler his former qb is) or Dallas. Then there is Mike Holgrem. Holgrem has spoken to Cleveland and he seemed to be interested. He has also been linked to the Seahawks so I don't see that happening. Then you have Bill Cowher. Everything is pointing to Carolina for him.
Snyder will throw all the money in the world at these coaches but if he does not get one of them maybe he will try to get Ron Wolf or Ernie Arcosi out of retirement. I do not know what will happen it will be interesting to see what happens with this situation but I will not be surprised to see Jim Fassel's name appear here as well.
