I care, and have passion. But personally I'm not sweating the losses of these assistant coaches. Honestly, I think the coaching needs improvement. Perhaps, these changes will result positively.

To play devil's advocate...it's not that simple. Leonard is about to get a monster second contract. We don't know what that will be...but I am going to assume it will reset the LB market. Whether a LB is worth the contract he will get...is probably worth a separate discussion. But back to the trade...using Leonard (in place of draft capital) allows you shed that contract obligation AND save your 1st round pick (that would have went in the Stafford deal) to use on a talented replacement (or another position). The difference between a rookie deal and Leonard's second contract will save a lot of cap space (that can be used to offset Stafford's contract or be used to supplement the team elsewhere). Of course, in this hypothetical, you have to be able to replace Leonard's production. That will be tough...especially his leadership. However, there seems to be talented WILLS entering the NFL every year...so perhaps you could find one that is a tier below. So the drop down from Leonard to whomever is more than balanced out by the step up Stafford...and you save some cap space and keep your pick.
