But then if Gibbs is involved in the decision, and is telling Danny that GW is no good, then I definitely trust Gibbs' judgment when it comes to evaluating coaches. If there's ONE thing Joe Gibbs is good at, it's surrounding himself with people who'll help him succeed. If he thinks GW is simply a good coordinator, then I am on board. Likewise, if Gibbs endorses Schwartz (or anyone else for that matter) as a good and complete leader, then I'm good with the decision, even if it means gutting the current roster and rebuilding.

But if Gibbs isn't involved, and Snyder's just doing whatever the hell he wants, then I'll be upset. If Gibbs is telling him to hire GW, and he's saying nah screw that, I'll be ever so pissed.
Schneed, to add to your 1st paragraph - P. King reports that Schwartz read "Money Ball" & has a degree in economics from Georgetown. King made it sound like this is a big part of his value, as if he could help a team manage the cap or at least make prudent roster moves. If he subscribes to Billy Bean's money ball ways, he's a guy that believes in low cost high value draft picks rather than expensive free agents.

Just wanted to point out the possibility that maybe Snyder is changing his approach 180 & Schwartz is a candidate for salary cap reasons.

I really liked King's description of him, sounds like a good manager.
