Might be a formality for the Rams job, but not for another job down the line perhaps. For example, suppose Stump Mitchell interviews but doesn't get the job because the owner (suppose the Rams have an owner in this instance) is set on Haslett. But then next year the Rams GM takes over in let's say Jacksonville and he's looking for a new head coach. And he says "Hey, you know I was really impressed with Stump Mitchell when he interviewed last year. I never really got the chance to know him or sit down and listen to his ideas until I interviewed him last year. I like this guy, he's who I want as my head coach"
