Citing sources close to the four-time former NFL coach, Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports is reporting that Bill Parcells could be the Miami Dolphins' general manager in 2008.

"It makes a lot of sense that the Dolphins would be a job he'd be very interested in if it came open," a source close to Parcells told Cole. "But only as the GM. I don't think he'll ever coach again."

Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga has told the Miami Herald that he plans "internal self-studies" to figure out what's wrong with his 0-7 team and whether solving the team's problems would include replacing General Manager Randy Mueller and/or coach Cam Cameron.

Parcells, who has coached the Giants, Patriots, Jets and Cowboys, has a friendly relationship with Huizenga. The two played golf together at Huizenga's private course in the spring. Parcells might be interested in a job with the Dolphins because he spends a lot of time in the off-season in Florida, although he has twice turned down job offers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Could be. That's what he's interested in, general manager. He's had enough of coaching the guys.

I think the Lions need him more...they got Matt Millen...

I wouldn't necessarily give Bill the keys to the car. His drafting has been far from spectacular.

His first 2 picks in last year's draft are turning out to be busts. Bobby Carpenter and Tony Fasano (Suposedly the second coming of Bavaro).

His drafting with the Jets was so-so at best. John Abraham and Sean Ellis, and Chad Pennington were his best picks (he could have had Tom Brady instead of Chad).

I think he is overrated...his style is now out of sync with today's NFL...though heck Miami took Ginn over Brady Quinn, so who knows.

He also drafted DeMarcus Ware, didnt he? Canty, Spears??? Dont remember. Was Barber drafted or a free agent???

I don't think he's out of sync. If not for a botched snap, the Cowboys move on last year. But I'm wondering why would Parcells want this job. The Dolphins are in such cap hell, it'll take him a decade to turn this team around.

For the challenge maybe??? Of course, at his age, a decade is a long time.
