I would think that you'd want a really great DC that might be considered for a HC job. The only way you can assure they won't get HC jobs is if they are mediocre.
I'm thinking it had more to do with why he turned down interviewing Capers and Del Rio. Guys like Grantham and Allen would have been major coups had he lured them away from their current gigs, and you take the good with the bad there for as long as you can keep them. Also, bigger and better things could just mean using the Bengals as an audition for another DC gig with a more established team, not just a HC promotion.
