Parcells hires new GM

[A.E]

Just days after handing Randy Mueller a pink slip, Dolphins VP of Team Operations Bill Parcells has hired Jeff Ireland as his new general manager. After spending several years in player personnel with the Dallas Cowboys, Ireland comes to south Florida as the first hire in the "Parcells' Era".

"Jeff Ireland certainly was an important part of this organization," said Wade Phillips. "Miami has done a smart thing by hiring him. And Bill was around him, so he knew what he does."

"I am excited about joining the Dolphins," Ireland said in a statement. "I know the great tradition of the team, and in my mind they are one of the flagship franchises in the NFL. They have a great owner in Wayne Huizenga, who I know is committed to making the Dolphins into winners once again. I am looking forward to working with him and everyone else in Miami to achieve that goal."

So what will Ireland's first duty be as new Dolphins GM? Most likely a "pow-wow" with his boss concerning head coach Cam Cameron's future with the team. -AE

I loved the hiring of this. When we hired Parcells he was basically going to be with him. The 2 of them drafted 38 of the 52 players on the Cowboys, and 12 of the 22 starters, look for the Dolphins to get better and quick (hopefully).
