IRELAND "DEFINITELY" GETTING FINS' GIG
The same source that told us that Dolphins G.M. Randy Mueller "definitely" will be fired tells us that Cowboys V.P. of college and pro scouting "definitely" will be installed as the new General Manager in Miami.
Despite reports that the Cowboys might try to delay the move until after the 2008 draft, the reality is that, if Ireland is getting final say over personnel, the Dolphins can immediately hire him.
And because Bill Parcells' contract makes clear the fact that he doesn't have final say, it's highly unlikely that the Cowboys will be able to block the move. Though no one believes that Parcells won't exert authority over Ireland, how is that any different than the authority than the owner has over his staff?
Like any other G.M., Ireland will have final say. And there will be times where he might use it at his own peril.
We're also hearing rumblings that Mueller has already been fired. Stay tuned

CAMERON TELLS TEAM HE'S COMING BACK
Though everyone expects Fins coach Cam Cameron to be fired, a league source tells us that Cameron told the team after Sunday's season-ending loss to the Bengals that he'll return as the team's coach in 2008.
(Hey, we thought that teams were no longer serving alcohol in the locker room.)
Even if by some miracle Bill Parcells decides not to fire Cameron, there's no way that Cameron knew it at any point on Sunday. Unless, of course, Parcells lied to Cameron in order to loosen him up.
Either way, the Cameron termination watch is officially on.

So, is it a done deal?

I mean, doesn't Ireland have to agree to terms? Or, does he leave just because BP wants to hire him?

Consider the source. PFT is dead wrong at least 70% of the time.

Anyone who knew anything about Parcells knew that Mueller would be fired when he got the job, so excuse me for taking PFT's source with a grain of salt.

profootballtalk.com is not exactly an authoratative source, more like citing Chris Collinsworth or Bryant Gumble.

they break tons of stories -- regardless of whether you want to believe that or not.

they also miss on tons of stuff.

one thing is clear, they've got sources. sometimes they are wrong and sometimes they are right.

The only GM that an official news source has announced isn't coming back is Marv Levy in Buffalo. It very well may happen, but I will be skeptical until I see something official.

Why not make Ireland the GM here in the same sense that he would be GM for the dolphins? Just offer the guy more money. :D

But you're not getting what I am saying. How would Ireland being GM under Parcells be any different than him being GM under Jerry? That is unless you believe that Parcells won't have final say.

I've said all along Jeff is going to the Fins. It's too great of an opportunity for a VP of College and Pro personnel, to pass up. Jerry would NEVER stand in a mans way for advancement. The ONLY question is, when does he go?????

Screw Parcells, I hope the Dolphins go 0-16 for the next 4 years and Parcells ruins any chance of making the HOF by contiuing to hang on way past his time.
