They're saying he could "move into a senior advisory role" instead of retire per se. How good this news is depends on whether that senior advisory role means he's still in charge or not. As some of these articles point out, it might be similar to the role Tannenbaum had, and that wouldn't be a good thing.
Ultimately it's up to Ross. Very interesting rumor, but boy do the details matter.
I thought the same thing. If he does stay on how much influence will he have?

My guess this is or at least I hope Ross said either take this role or ur fired to save face.

Not sure about the save face theory. Doesn't happen as often as just straight up firing the person. I don't think Ross would have an issue with firing Grier. This move could be consistent (just speculating) with Ross thinking Grier is good at some things, but bad at some crucial stuff where he'd like someone else to take over. Retaining Grier is important in that case because you still want him for the things you think he's good at. For example, Grier's biggest weakness is drafting in rounds 3 or later. He wastes those picks way too much. He's actually decent in the first 2 rounds and FA. This kind of move would be consistent with letting someone else take over the draft while retaining some elements of Grier that Ross thinks is useful.
I guess we'll see.

Sounds like a nice cushy job because Ross loves him or maybe a thank you for him being with franchise for so long which is fine by me. Definitely does not sound like him staying in charge.
StaleTacosforum_veteranGreat news IMO if true.
This is the way to fire someone and pay them to not burn down the house on the way out the door. I'm sure he's amassed many secrets over the years.
If he fails to get a deal done with Tua I'm joining the call for "Grier has to go". -cbrad

brandon27subscriberFire this piece of trash before he gets the chance to retire. Give him a one way trip to Russia as his retirement gift too.

I hope people don’t judge you on your decisions like you do Grier. I’m no fan but….really??
Lots of people will tell you what they think about you and what you shouldn't and should do. Not everyone's thoughts are worth consideration. Don't take criticism from anyone who you wouldn't also go to for advice.
Good.
He was like Flores or Tannehill in that he was slightly better than average, but not good enough for Superbowl success.
The complete inability to draft interior OL ruined so many seasons for us

I couldn't care less if they do. He's nothing but a below average GM and a cockroach that's been here since 2016 ensuring the mediocre performance of this franchise through his entire tenure. He needed to be gone when Flores was gone, and probably before that. As for the rest, try picking up on some humor once in a while. It's necessary when dealing with this team. There's not a single person here likely that wants Grier anywhere near this franchise.

FinatikmoderatorA cockroach. Really?? Some of you have to really evaluate your metrics on how you evaluate people on a personal basis. Not a Dolphins employee basis. I get it people are pissed, but that’s kinda of cringe.

Yeah… I’d be pissed if I was a cockroach and someone said I was like Grier. Lol

Cockroaches are survivors. In that sense it does describe Grier lol.

Well this shows where the real problem is: Ross.
And there's nothing we can do about that one.

Ross is trolling the fans at this point.

Stephen Ross is an absolute idiot. But we all knew that already.
Going to be another long year next year.

Ross is a businessman, he loves money. Let’s show him our displeasure by not opening our wallets to the team until there is real change. let the team play in a nearly empty stadium, don’t buy merch, don’t watch Phins games on TV.
I’m done with this team until they are done with Grier. Grier’s refusal to bring in healthy players, and to build the OL is fucking criminal. He might be the nicest guy in the world but he sucks dick as a GM.

Well the man is 84 years old. Hell, for all we know he may not even know he owns a football team.
