I know Jeff Ireland will likely never see the email I sent him this afternoon, but it felt good to write and send it to him:

Dear Mr. Ireland:



I respect the attempts you have made to improve the Miami Dolphins during your six years in Miami. Unfortunately, the team is not where it needs to be and hasn't shown enough for me to believe that it will in the near future.



I believe it is best for you, the Miami Dolphins organization, and the fans for you to resign as general manager of the Miami Dolphins. Walk out with your head held high and know that you did your best.


I wish you and your family the best in your future endeavors.


Sincerely,

Brian *******

 
send it off in a letter to yourself---Steely Dan
 
whats sad is he literally built a team if the coaching staff didnt choke away from the bills,panthers,bucs,ravens we could'ev been 12-4
 
You can send it by mail to this address to make sure he gets it:

Miami Dolphins
ATTN: Jeff Ireland
7500 SW 30th Street
Davie, Florida, 33314

I sent off a similar letter to the GM of my favorite MLB team (Ruben Amaro, Jr. of the Phillies) basically telling him that his personnel decisions blow and that he has run the team into the ground since winning the World Series in 2008. He actually wrote me back a reply letter, so my respect for him went up a little, but he still has to go, just like Jeff.

I don't think Ireland knows how to draft players, or bring in guys through free agency/trades to help the team. He is a lot like Matt Millen. Nothing is going to change here until we have a better GM, so we can get the players to compete for a Superbowl.

Believe me I wish I knew who the guy was who could turn this around. I know there are a lot of good personnel guys out there. Guys who do the hard work and scout players all year long, watch film, and do the grunt work. Maybe Brian Gaine, the Dolphin's Asst GM? He seems to be rock solid.

BIO:

Brian Gaine enters his 15th year in the NFL and his second season as the Dolphins' Assistant General Manager after being named to that position on June 27, 2012.

In his current role, Gaine works closely with General Manager Jeff Ireland on the evaluation
of players at the professional and collegiate levels, as well as being responsible for administrative, supervisory and operational duties in both of those areas, while overseeing the Player Personnel Department. He also has an active role in the organization with Head Coach Joe Philbin and his staff, football administration and general football operations related departments.

In his previous roles in Miami, Gaine was responsible for directing pro scouting operations for the Dolphins, including player evaluations on all levels of professional football, advance scouting, free agency and tracking player movement. Gaine also participated in the process
and evaluation of collegiate prospects in preparation of the NFL Draft.

Prior to his arrival in Miami, Gaine spent the previous three seasons as the Dallas Cowboys'
Assistant Director of Pro Scouting (2005-07), where he worked with former Dolphins Executive Vice President of Football Operations Bill Parcells (2005-06) and General Manager Jeff Ireland (2005-07).

With Dallas, Gaine contributed to the Cowboys' player acquisition process by managing the pro scouting department and evaluating players and rosters from the NFL and all other levels of professional football. Additional responsibilities included advance scouting, free agency preparation, tracking of player movement and directing the development of the Cowboys' pro scouting database.

Gaine went to Dallas after spending six years (1999-2004) in the New York Jets' Scouting
Department, including serving as the Assistant Director of Pro Scouting in 2004. Prior to that promotion, he functioned as a pro scout for the Jets from 2001-03. In 2000, he was the Jets' Manager of Pro Development/NFC where his duties included pro
player evaluation and advance scouting as well as the scouting and tracking of players in other professional leagues such as NFL Europe, the Canadian Football League and the Arena League. Gaine began his personnel career as a member of the Jets' college
scouting department in 1999.

Prior to joining the Jets in a front office capacity, he served as a member of the team's
practice squad in 1996, followed by a stint with the Giants' practice squad in 1997. He then signed and spent the 1998 offseason with the Kansas City Chiefs, but was waived prior to the start of training camp.
 
Gaine learning from Jeff Ireland. Why do I get the feeling that wont fly?

Gaine actually did most of his learning under Parcells. I think Parcells kind of dogged it when he arrived in Miami, and he seemed to be more interested in playing golf and having everyone kiss his ass because he walked on water, and was the great Bill Parcells. But it sounds like Gaine has put in the work, and I know other teams like the Jets and Bucs have made inquiries into hiring him.

Honestly I would trust the people here on FH to have a consensus vote on who we should draft over trusting Jeff with our picks. I remember Ireland panicking in last year's draft, and trading up and then trading down repeatedly and not going anywhere. Do you remember this? It was like he got confused. I never heard a good explanation of what he was trying to do with all of our picks. :idk:
 
If we can Ireland and not Philbin, Gaine may be our only option at GM. Not many outsiders will come in without having their say on picking a head coach.
