Also if i'm not mistaken, this is the last year of Wesbroid and Feasters deal.
You also gotta think Burke has more job security in this position. A GM usually gets to hire/fire 2-4 coaches and Feaster will probably get to hire/fire 2-3 GMs if he wants. I remember Ken King saying Burke could easily be in this job for a decade if he wanted to
