Checks and Balances?

Saban had complete control over the roster and it appears as though, so far Cameron does as well. I thought Mueller was in place as a checks and balance system. So far that does not seem to be the case. Cameron seems to be pulling the strings and getting away with whatever roster moves he deems neccessary to fullfill his 'plan'.
Funny that the controversial moves Cameron has made so far invlove players he his personal ties to. Ginn Jr? Trent Green?
Cameron appears to be putting his personal relationships with players ahead of his team. The only excuse you get is that you have to buy into the statement that 'he has a plan.' If you don't, well too bad, Cameron is an offensive genius and you? Well you have only bled orange and teal year after year.
It is sad when most Dolphin's fans are rooting for Culpepper to play well elsewhere making Cameron look foolish for the trade for Trent Green.
Oh and they also say that Quinn had better play poorly in Cleveland so Cameron and Mueller don't look foolish as well.

John Beck over Brady Quinn TAKE 2.

Here we go again. Cameron and Mueller had their mind on who they wanted in the QB position and have been evasive with the media and fans. The trade for Trent Green has finally happened. Although Cameron has repeatedly said he would not evaluate Daunte Culpepper until he was 100%, the team notified Culpepper this morning that they are looking to trade him. Culpepper was just given his medical release!
So Cameron evaluated Culpepper when exactly?
If Cameron was honest in saying they would not evaluate Daunte until he was 100%, then why is Daunte not getting the chance to prove himself if this weekends upcoming minicamp? What's another week or 2 to evaluate Daunte? Heck, if anything it'd probably help the trade value. That and you get a better feel for the work Daunte has put in and how he could fit into this offense. The Dolphin's owe it to Daunte and their fans. Instead, Cameron and Mueller already had their minds made up. There was never going to be an evaluation of Daunte or a chance for him to play this year.
I have not been a big fan of this trade as I don't believe that a healthy Trent Green is a better QB than a healthy Daunte Culpepper. Now that Daunte is healthy and been given his notice, I realize that I was also unhappy with this trade because of the way Cameron and Mueller were handling it.
Cameron and Mueller have again made a largely unpopular move at the QB position. Almost as if to say, they don't care what anyone thinks, they are doing it their way. 'Stick it fans, we are running this show and we don't care what you think.' Cameron had better hope that both the John Beck and Trent Green moves are successful ones for this team.
