On what planet would they ever consider this?

Well I mean they are desperate, fire selling, etc and I mean waddle isn’t a Mica Parsons or Christian McCaffery!  You never know

I do know.

They also aren't desperate.

The Dolphins are the example of not tieing a team to an overrated QB who can't carry a team. They were so stacked and watched most of their talent go elsewhere so they could pay a mediocre and hurt starting QB too much money. They looked so good beating up bad teams at their peak and couldn't hang with any of the other playoff bound teams. I wonder if getting tossed aside will wake up their HC or if he continues to struggle elsewhere after his early success. 

It would be funny if we weren't doing a weaker and dumber version of their build.

I read the Athletic this morning and Russini says McDaniels is staying. We’ll see.

They are also a prime example of why teams should NOT Tank.

Maybe another year at the rate he is going but I woukd be surprised if it's longer at this point. They are going to have to deal with Tua and start over but their HC seems almost checked out at times. They have had so much talent leave in the last few years Im wondering who they lost in house that made better personnel choices. They were great at talent acquisitions a few years ago but seem to have taken some steps backwards. I don't follow them closely.

They actually came out well except their owner chose the wrong QB and kept doubling down.

Probably just keeping the guys engaged cuz I think they will definitely move on after the season

Pretty much but we still have the weaker one but the crap the Fins owner has done is pretty bad but weirdly competent in flashes. None yet seen for Dave

They didn't come out well.  They sucked before tanking, during tanking, and after tanking.

I do think concussions have played thier part in Tuas decline

Exactly, they chose Tua instead of Herbert. Not an indictment of tanking, that’s like us not tanking and getting a 2nd for Burns and trading away our future for Young. If we had actually tanked and trade Moore and Burns early, we’d be a much more talented team. Even more so if we dumped Fitterer et al with Rhule.
