You think the Dolphins would trade for Cam?

In all reality yes based off previous drafts and all the ammo they have acquired. I just feel a NE protege doing things similarly to the Titans vet qb carrying them with stout defense and a strong running game. But basically yes it’s a winning formula if Cams healthy I can see someone entrusting him with their offense.

Here's the thing, we have a huge wildcard with the Cam Newton situation, which makes it extremely difficult to draft.   

Our ideal draft strategy should probably be to find a desperate team, and trade our 1st round pick for multiple 1st rounders in the 2021 draft (similar to the Buffalo Bills Sammy Watkins trade).

If Cam Newton comes up and is healthy, then we're in good shape.  If it turns out he's done, then we have multiple 1sts in 2021 to move up for Trevor Lawrence or another prospect who emerges.

in theory we should be trying to pick Tua this year, but that might be a really bad choice if we're underestimating Cam's ability to get back to his old self.

I'm of the belief that nothing much matters if you don't have your franchise qb.  Taking a a DT isn't going to much for this franchise long term in the position we're in.  Trading our 1st allows us to defer judgment on Cam and stockpile choices.

Yeah if you really look at their team they are pretty solid on offense. There Oline is pretty good and they have a nice WR in Parker. They have money to spend to fix the defense. I could see them as a sleeper team for Cam.

Miami is beating NE right now does that help us at all?

"After the first round, the order is determined by revolving the teams with the same records, with the team that just picked first of the group picking last in the next round."

Helps us in the 2nd round, not 1st

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
