I am a little surprised by the Miami Dolphins acquiring Brandon Marshall, the wide receiver with a lot of off-the-field baggage during his days as a Denver Bronco.
Bill Parcells, Miami's general manager, usually hangs onto his draft picks. Today, however, he gave up two second rounders to get Marshall. Parcells, a legendary no-nonsense coach during his days in New York, New England and Dallas, is bringing in a guy who seems to define nonsense. South Florida is not a good place for players who have a knack for finding trouble.
Troubled or not, Marshall is a physical talent. He will upgrade the Dolphins. However, talent alone isn't always a reason to hire anyone. I thought Parcells knew that, but as he enters the twilight of his career, maybe the desire for another Super Bowl title was the blinding force that led to this trade. Read more.
