Steve Spagnuolo. He has two pretty solid coaching trees.
I still don't understand the appeal of Rex Ryan. He's a defensive mastermind, but I don't think he's head coach material. I guarantee that his personality will really get under his players' and coaches' skin. Head coaching is less about the X's and O's and more about the ability to manage the entire team.
It's like at work. You have an expert analyst who is brilliant but has no people skills. He will never be a good manager because he has no idea how to lead.
Rex Ryan is not a secret. People have known about him for years. And yet he's never even sniffed a head coach interview. I think that's pretty strong proof that a lot of front offices are scared about this guy's personality.
