Stephen Ross hints at a new reporting structure for the Dolphins

Not to me. Grier and McDaniel will work together as McDaniel stated in the presser.
 
Most likely just a step to prevent anyone being another Flores. Messages go up and down the chain so in theory anything questionable has 2 different people reviewing it before it reaches the other end.
 
Sounds like Ross wants someone onsite in charge in his absence. You'd like a football guy there. It's like a COO (understands football operations) as opposed to a CFO (understands the business side). But Garfinkle knows he is not a football guy and may have the common sense that Ross lacks. We can only hope. Jason Taylor is a bright guy who could be groomed. I would get someone like him in there to be Garfinkle's operations sounding board. Bless Danny's heart, love his arm, but he's not in Jason's league in this regard. Jason has the combination of football vision, real intelligence, and practicality from the point of view of a player. He would know what flies in the locker room and what wouldn't in a way that Garfinkle wouldn't. He also knows what traits lead to winning.

During Ross’ speech, he mentioned the reporting structure that the organization will use to get information passed up the ladder. Ross stated that McDaniel would report to Grier, and Grier would then report to CEO, vice chairman, and president Tom Garfinkel as well as Ross.

Seems like a good move. Gets Ross further out of the picture.
 
Ross is still trying to figure out where the microphone is. I'm not sure he knows who reports to whom.

Taylor is real smart. I love what he has to say on the radio game broadcasts. Smart dude who gets it.
 
Wanna get really depressed? look at that article about the fates of the last 12 #29 overall picks, going back to 2010. #29 overall is like a 13th floor in a hotel. Bermuda Triangle! We should trade up or down.
That’s why we will nail this one - and it will be Grier of all people who breaks the curse
 
aka "I'm liable to say something stupid as hell but I know Chris Grier and Garfinkel are my consiglieres and won't rat me out"
