Not sure if the Pats needed to give permission for that or not. Nonetheless, it's more than clear based on Dimitroff's statements that he and the Pats had a very friendly parting. It was also an obvious promotion for him.
Pats have argued in the past (for whatever it is worth), that Pioli is the GM and that the Pats would need comp for him if someone wants him. It may be a weak argument, but that's the rumor anyway.
