"There's cleanup needed on aisles five, six, seven and eight in a manner they might not have the time or stomach to do. The good news is team owner Steve Ross and his son-in-law, Daniel Sillman - yes, his inclusion in decisions is part of some needed change - realize the team's personnel department needs a complete rebuild. General manager. Scouts. Middle-management. Top to bottom. Everything."
"Now, you can be snarky and say a smarter organization would have realized this before the tank-for-tomorrow rebuild was entrusted to former general manager Chris Grier in 2019. Or realized it in 2020. Or 2021. Or ... When Ross fired Grier and his two top lieutenants in November, he decided to redo the front office in a manner he hadn't since buying the team 17 years and no playoff wins ago. Hey, what's the rehab line that all awareness starts with self-awareness?"
Sunday brings the end of another dumpy Miami Dolphins season, but persistent problems and an organizational mess remain. Cleanup is needed across multiple personnel areas, including general manager, scouts and middle-management. Owner Steve Ross and son-in-law Daniel Sillman have acknowledged the need for a complete rebuild of the personnel department. Ross fired former general manager Chris Grier and two top lieutenants in November and is remaking the front office for the first time since buying the team 17 years ago. The team hired Troy Aikman to assist with the general manager search as an outside evaluator. Concerns remain about an inner circle that appears largely unchanged.
