  1. It wouldn't not right now. No matter what the cap is going to be limited even if they cut players they have still have dead cap space which will make it to sign or replace the 26 free agents or replace them plus sign the 8 draft picks that they have this year no matter who they cut or restructure it's going to be difficult to do much in free agency they probably could sign a few players but nobody that's high dollar . Tough job . But I'll take it

  2. I despise Grier but he actually seems to have hit with chop and Paul and if we had a healthy OL and Chubb + Phillips we would probably be pretty good. The problem is they’re not healthy and are all very injury prone so by December our team is a shell of itself. So overall failure!!!

  3. Prioritizing doesn't mean ignoring the position. Tackles are a priority because the combo skills are harder to find. You still need NFL starters at G. It's just the position doesn't ask as much as it does T, which should make it easier to find I think. Same with a TE that can both block and catch. You don't need a star because the WRs do most of the work, just a guy that can do both. And same with LBs. And yet, Grier can't seem to find these guys. I wouldn't be surprised though if Ross waits another year, to give the new GM a cleaner plate. I was surprised you didn't mention the fans popular choice of Louis Riddick 😆

  4. Great stuff, Kyle! My only counter is that bad oline builds predate McDaniels. The devaluing of the oline is baked into how this team does business since Richmond Webb was on the team. When you have guys in personnel like Grier, Engroff and Hunt helping to pick the groceries for 20 plus years, this is what you get. If the next GM doesn’t completely clean house on the personnel side, you might get more of the same.

  5. If I get stoned, I get stoned. Tyreek is a distraction and to be honest, I would get rid of him. Get the oline beefed up, DL the DBs need to get better. Ramsey is good, but im just curious with his age when is he going to start to regress? I did a mock draft and I went with; Malaki Stars S Ga, Donovan Jackson IOL OSU, Jackson Dart QB Miss., Barrett Carter Clem, Denzle Burke DB OSU, Blake Miller OT Clem, Dani Dennis-Sutton Edge Penn St., Cameron Skattebo RB Az St., Que Robinson Edge Alabama, Jaylin Noel WR Iowa St.

  6. Grier's father Bobby was the associate director of pro personnel for the Houston Texans of the National Football League (NFL) from 2000–2016. Prior to that, Bobby Grier spent several years with the New England Patriots. Bill Parcells philosophy was to never use high draft picks on offensive linemen. I remember an interview where Chris Grier shared that belief just like Parcells and his father. Please feel free to check me on this. I just remember Grier quoting that same belief.

  7. Send CGrier, McMuffin, and Tia packing along with all the other egos, has beens, and big contracts. Bring in a proven winner hard ass stud mf’er like Mike Vrabel and turn over both coach and personnel to him.

    Time to get us back on the rebuild that flo started before he got derailed by mouth breather Chris Grier and mids poster boy Tua.

  8. I've been a Grier fan for years, BUT we need a new perspective that hopefully involves building a dominant line on both sides of the ball! When your line is a strength then it's hard to stink on offense, and that's as simple as it gets. We're the team with icing and no cake! Grier is more miss than hit at the O line! We need a guy like Gutekunst in Green Bay!

  9. Ross should have gotten rid of Grier long ago, we had a better head coach and Grier let him go, Ross has devastated this once proud franchise, this mess has been going on for at least 10 years.

  10. Football hiring and firing is not based on liking someone or not. It's based on performance . This team and it's roster are in dissaray . Grier must be fired asap!

  11. A lot more attractive if the new GM gets to hire his Head Coach. Dimitroff being available is interesting. McKenzie and Gruden are from the same school of how to construct a team. Pairing Dimitroff and Gruden excites me.

  12. I understand there is only 32 of these jobs, but I'm not working for Jerry Jones and I'm sure as hell not working for Ross. I didn't think anybody could be worse than Huizenga, but boy howdy was I wrong.

  13. This is not an attractive location. This organization has made mistake after mistake. They hire the wrong ppl consistently. Steven Ross gave McDaniel an extension.
    Chris Grier failed to deliver a good Oline. I can go on with all the crazy roster decisions.

    last four coaches, Joe Philbin, Adam Gase, Brian Flores, and McDaniel. I think Grier selected McDaniel and Flores. I like Grier, but he needs to go. I like Mike, but he needs to hire an actual OC to call plays.

    Fans pay the ultimate price. I've been watching since Jimmy Johnson was head coach. This team keeps having epic meltdowns. Every season fans are let down. It is so hard being a Dolphin's fan.

    Chris Grier and Mike need to both be fired. This GM spot can be good if Ross actually hires someone that can get the job done. We need a new coach as well.
    I think Miami needs to clean house on the roster. Lot of overpaid players. I would keep Tua because I don't think he is the issue. Actually, try to build around Tua. This team is soft. I wish we were built like the Bills.

    Miami is a laughingstock of the NFL. Grier better hang on to those receipts because a lot of players who got paid didn't show up this year.
