Jeff Fisher is still unemployed, which is a pretty big surprise considering the high level or reported interest by several teams including the Miami Dolphins. The negotiations are taking a lot longer than anyone would want, and it is because of the price of Fisher's potential coaching staff, according to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald.

These negotiations intrigue me in that they are not necessarily about money going to Fisher. They are about money to hire a coaching staff, which is important because Fisher is reportedly constructing an experienced and expensive one. (He has invested quite some time the past couple of days compiling a staff.)

Fisher is going to want to bring a lot of his own guys in, and that plus the cost of buying out whichever coaches he chooses to replace could be a pretty big expense for the team that takes him on.
