Some thoughts on the Pasqualoni firing

I cant say for sure, but I’m confident that Paul Pasqualoni was not in Dolphin GM Jeff Ireland’s ear demanding that he sign FS Gibril Wilson last off season. Wilson spent the season barely disguising his desire to lose every game by as many points as possible. Cynical? I think not. In fact it gets even deeper. Wilson got a big bonus to sign with Oakland in 2008, then stunk bad enough to be released in 09’. Now he’s using the Dolphins as victim number two. With 2010 being an uncapped year, the Dolphins are free release him without taking a cap hit, and without the cap restraints Gibril’s next victim will likely emerge to sign him to another sizeable deal. Gibril may have trouble diagnosing route combinations, but he’s a master at gaming the NFL’s financial system. With his proven skills at juicing NFL owners for millions, I’m expecting Gibril to be named chief negotiator for players union in their fight for a new labor deal any day now.

LMAO. I didn't get to watch the last couple of games, but I just felt like our D never really improved as a whole. I agree that the personnel is a huge issue, but the players didn't seem to improve ( well Cam Wake did ) but not many others. Seemed like none of the starting LB core improved. The safety play got better, but still wasn't great.
I love Pasqualoni, but something just didn't sit right with me about this season. I sadly agree with his departure.
This year is cleaning year for over priced FA. In that sense the uncapped year will do some good.
