The speculation about the 49ers trading Jim Harbaugh to the Browns before Cleveland hired Mike Pettine seems to make it unlikely Harbaugh will be in San Francisco for the long term. He is going into the fourth year of a five-year $25 million contract and will soon be due a huge raise. After taking the Niners to the NFC title game, the Super Bowl and the NFC title game, in his first three seasons, he has established himself as one of the best coaches in the NFL. But he’s apparently had a falling out with GM Trent Baalke and the 49ers have highly regarded defensive line coach Jim Tomsula as a natural replacement. Where will Harbaugh go next? Dolphins owner Steve Ross is a Michigan man and so is Harbaugh. Ross tried to hire him in 2011 but Harbaugh, who was at Stanford, elected to stay in the Bay Area and take the 49ers job. Ross could throw an awful lot of money at Harbaugh next year and by then, the 49ers and Harbaugh could mutually agree to part ways ... Somehow, Ross spared Dolphins coach Joe Philbin in the fallout from the BullyGate scandal. Philbin claimed he had no knowledge what was going on. That’s a fireable offense. How can he not know what’s going on in his own locker room? Can a coach be so out of touch? Bill Parcells had his locker room wired and if he ever sensed something wrong, he would summon Harry Carson or George Martin to fix it. Or he would fix it himself. Unless the Dolphins have a big season, I think Philbin will be fired, especially if Ross can get Harbaugh.
