Interesting perspective.

Ireland was a "Parcells guy" but seems to have transcended that regime with regard to the Dolphins.
And what's wrong with this type of set up? Seems to work well in Pittsburgh. IMO no coach should ever have total control over personnel. Coaching a team is hard enough. Ireland hasn't done a poor job. They have some good pieces to build with there.

...but he made a billion dollars in another industry. Clearly this means he knows what he's doing.

Ireland is still making the personnel decisions though.

Re: Coaching Changes

Not sure if has been reported here or not but Steelers OC Bruce Arians just retired. Tweet from Albert Breer. Can't copy and paste here though because Twitter is blocked at my job.

Dolphins hire Joe Philbin from Green Bay as their head coach.. Have to think they are the favorites for Matt Flynn as well now.

Hope we make a bid on Flynn just to drive the $$$ up.

This was my first thought as well. Which still could be to our favor if Matt Moore doesnt return. If we have to take someone like a Tannehill, Foles, Cousins, etc in the second round who may not be ready, Moore would be someone ideal to bring in and start.

Re: Coaching Changes

Spags replaces G. Williams in New Orleans.

Saints hire Steve Spagnuolo as defensive coordinator - NFL - SI.com

I think this is a really good pick up for NO. Spags is a really solid D Coor. Mostly, I am really glad he didn't go to Philly where some of the rumours had him going.

What's the over/under on how long J. Castillo survives as DC in Philly?
