Sparano… on game day produced 30+ points on offense with crap. Perhaps now its Ireland not getting the right talent?!

I’ll make myself clearer.

In 2009, Vontae was the 25th pick of the 1st round; Clay Matthews was the 26th pick

In 2010, Koa Misi was picked with the 8th pick in the 2nd round, 40th overall; Gronk was picked with the 10th pick in the 2nd round, 42nd overall.

Got it?

Did you watch the episode before that where Ireland wanted to keep him but Philbin wanted to see more when asked?

Clay Matthews and Rob Gronkowski. ”

Gronk was not drafted the same year as vontae or matthews

They’re making too much of appearances and not paying attention to reality. Blow it up and start all over again with a new GM.

But there’s the rub. Ireland’s mantra has been that they’re not “REBUILDING,” they’re “reloading.” He hung himself by not using the term rebuilding even though every one on earth knows what they’re doing (while he himself is on Hard Knocks admitting he has no wide receivers). He sold a bill of goods to Ross and Ross doesn’t know any better………….so Ross then comes out and says he expects to make the playoffs this year (cuz his GM just got done telling him how good his team is). Ireland is so arrogant and so stupid, he literally signed his own death certificate by thinking this team he assembled was good enough to win. As we can see, they’re not even competitive and that’s with the second worst salary cap situation coming in to this season.

He’s made it impossible for Ross not to fire him, especially now that Ross once again looks like an idiot for talking about the playoffs for a team that will be lucky to win two games.

wfbbogota1975:

I’ll go you one further. We can go thru all of his personnel blunders, his creepy personality, how he interacts with players, etc, but the one thing that he will never recover from is getting on that plane with Ross to go woo Jim Harbaugh.

That day he proved what a disloyal weasel he is. As GM and the one who sets the tone for the culture of the organization, he didn’t have the stones or integrity to tell Ross he refused to take part in that until Sparano had been fired. He didn’t have the integrity or the smarts to tell Ross that you simply don’t run a football team like that. Maybe you do your business deals that way to get rich, but you don’t operate like that in the NFL. He saved his own neck with total disregard for Sparano or the reputation of the organization. That level of dishonesty permeates through their organization and everyone on earth (except Ross apparently), knows a what a disgusting, two-faced scumbag he is. I’m thrilled for Sparano that the Jets offense played so well yesterday if only to shove it up Ireland’s a**.

The Dolphins are nothing but a septic tank as long as Ireland is in charge. Ross is a zillionaire, he’s not going anywhere, so all we can hope for is that he hires better people.

Seriously though, why did they draft Lamar Miller so high if they felt good about Daniel Thomas? The list of question marks just go on and on about Ireland beyond of the major debacles we all know about.

I understand wanting to build through the draft but geez you can’t just give away Marshall and VD the when your already short on talent at the skill positions.

Confusing…

No, he was right…Dolan is an absolute disgrace and what’s worse is he doesn’t even care…This is the guy who has a standing offer to Isaiah Thomas to come back and take a job with the Knicks after Isaiah ran the Knicks into the ground as a coach and a GM and then cost the Knicks $11.5 million because he sexually harassed a female employee…I’ll sign up for Steven Ross right now as a Knicks fan

I agree with some Ireland picks: Tannehill, Jonathan Martin, Mike Pouncey.

Not all these mistakes are Irelands but he has compounded the problem previous GM’s have started. I’ve been wanting the Phins draft a QB in round 1 since Marino retired.

2001: Drew Brees
2005: Aaron Rodgers
2007: Brady Quinn (I’ll admit it)
2008: Matt Ryan

Also 2006 Free agency wanted Brees over Culpepper. Mainly because Brees was FA and Culpepper was under contract which would cost us a 2nd round pick to obtain him.

Other notable picks we passed which would have filled needs:

2009: Hakeem Nicks (still need a WR)
2010: Earl Thomas (would have preferred to stay at 12 if need position is available, and we still need a FS)

Peyton Manning made Bill Polian look like a genius for 12 years. Without Manning last year, the Colts were the worst team in the NFL. In a not so funny twist of fate, last year’s Colts are this year’s Dolphins.

Sigh.

I think Philbin will succeed. Unless we find someone from the Green Bay organization that wants to come to Miami, then Philbin should be given the keys to this monster. I don’t trust Ireland anymore and want true football gurus handling this organization.

Miami needs a complete overhaul in their culture, mentality and desire for the game. Ireland continues the failed mantra from the last 13 years which is why Miami is still considered a joke.

Clay Matthews and Rob Gronkowski.

Anyone else need a drink?
