Why no talk about trading up to #3 for Tua?

The Burrow talk was a pipedream but a trade up to #3 seems realistic. Detroit is not taking Tua and could be fielding calls for that pick. Miami is not going to trade a lot to only move up 1 spot in the draft. The only completion would be the LA Chargers. Seems like a great chance for Carolina to get their future franchise QB. Tua to me is the best QB in this draft. Nothing against Burrow great QB. But the way the NFL is heading towards these days you need a athletic mobile QB who can throw on the run. Tua has better upside than Burrow the traditional pocket QB.

 

What would it take to move up to #3 for Tua?

Tua is a risk even if a great thrower. Love is a safer pick as is Herbert and both could be available at #7, but Simmons is the best pick and may still be there.

What in the hell does this have to do with moving up to #3?

This topic is about the #3 pick not the #7 pick. Of course we take Simmons if we stay at #7. Duh!

He also said nobody is going to be guaranteed to be the starter.  So that is a long long way from "confirmed". 

"I don't want to say about anybody that they'll be a starter," Rhule said.

You are correct in that Rhule has been adamant about not naming anyone a starter.  That said, if Cam comes back healthy (I believe he will) who is going to beat him out for the starting QB slot?

I believe the public chatter by Rhule and Tepper in regards to Cam is intended to both change behavior and motivate. 

Cam has always been coddled and catered to and he developed a healthy sense of entitlement.  Rhule and Tepper are making it perfectly clear this will no longer be the case, Cam is going to have to earn it.

I believe he will.

What’s to say he doesn’t drop to the 20s or even 2nd round?

hes far from a lock. He’s had major injuries and points to an RG knee or Wentz waiting to happen.

he might be fine but who wants to gamble their top 10 pick on it?

Maybe if he's sitting there in the 3rd, you throw a pick that way. Too much to gamble on that injury... Looks like something the Dolphins or Raiders would do.

You guys are dillusional if you think Tua isnt going in the first round. Sure there is injury history. But look at the up side.

Arm Talent

Throws with anticipation 

Throws with touch

Accuracy 

Mobility

Reads defenses

Production

If it wasnt for injury he would be the first player taken

Without a doubt. But then, there's that injury and it was a serious one. And that's where the doubt creeps in. It's not about the skills he displayed, but about the durability he might have.

True. We will know more after his pro day.

Honestly, they won't know anything until about halfway through his first season of taking hits, heavy practices and general wear. And there's the rub... it's like buying a used car with almost no miles on it, but one troubling accident on the CarFax. They say it's fixed and it runs good right now, but then a few months later you're on the highway and BLAMMO!

Or maybe you get 10 good years of driving out of it. 

Except you are paying new car price for it and cannot get your money (or pick) back.

Just saying why he might not go in the first ... and why he may fall to the place where the risk vs reward balances out better. Like I said, though, there are teams that will always take a gamble. Just like in regular life, there's always someone willing to try that get rich quick scheme and every once in a great while some guy hits it big. But there are a lot of schmucks that get stuck with damaged goods and debt that lasts for years.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
