Dolphins' GM commits to Tua in '21


LinvilleGorge

Recommended Posts

We want to be clear: Tua is our starter and we are pleased with his development," Grier reiterated, according to NFL Network's Michael Giardi

Here's my question...

Did the #3 overall pick just get put on the auction block? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they'd have no issues sitting tight and taking Sewell or Chase, but...

Can’t imagine any other reason to make this statement unless someone directly asked the question.  Of course they’re committed to Tua. 

It may have draft implications. If the Dolphins don't trade down, they won't be drafting a QB! Perhaps they'd be more amenable to a trade because they don't need a QB, or maybe they'll get Tua some more weapons like Chase or Smith (which is what I believe will happen)!

I'm a charlotte native living up in buckeye country. Can't stand Ohio State but I gotta tell ya that Justin Fields as a pro prospect has been growing on me a ton lately. I would not mind one bit if we gave up a ton to move up and get him

clearly we aren't getitng anywhere with Teddy. We have a superstar RB, a star WR in the making, and a young talented D. let's not waste it on Teddy, move up and get fields imo

For the record, I'm fine with targeting someone and going to get them. I'm not sure who that someone should be but if I had to name a name right now it's be Zach Wilson for me.  But if we target Fields or Lance, whatever. Just go get me a damn QB. As much as I love Howell, he's still a year away and this overall QB class is almost certainly much stronger than next year's and we are sitting on the 8th overall pick. Gotta go get a guy this year IMO.

If we targeted Lance, I seriously doubt we'd need to trade up to number three to get him.

I don't believe anything I hear this time of year, its not like he is going to bad mouth his rookie QB.

Even if they want Sewell or Chase they should still pretend to be willing to trade it so Atlanta might trade with them if Atlanta wants a QB.

In theory Miami could get a 2nd from Atlanta and still get Sewell, that is if Atlanta wants a QB enough.

    • Very Odd, seems someone is lying about the "love" between Seattle and canales.  I did read some about B.johnson and he said he wanted a stable good job and that 5 out 8 teams that filled this past season, will be open again in three years. I somewhat get his point, but he's lost millions the past two years waiting. Plus great job are never open cause great team don't fire their HCs. He put lots of time and sweat into the lions and wanted to enjoy the good times longer.    I do think tepper made other coaches not want to be here. That all-star staff had as you stated had connections around the league and coaches are no different when someone contracts them and goes " How was it Carolina ??'.... " Love the area, hated the work environment/owner". They did get Brian Callahan to interview and had a 2nd one lined up, but in just one interview titans hired him. I'd much rather had him or just name evero HC instead.  Nobody wanted Ron Rivera either and he interviewed everywhere. No one wants this job..... even the jags got recent SB winning Doug Peterson.... I truly think Carolina coaching rep is in the dump and they fuged up waiting for Callahan. Panic move. This is my pure guess too, Jim Caldwell is the acting/real HC and canales is the OC.
    • I go back to the hole the Panthers put themselves in and his positive track record with getting production from ‘problem’ QBs. Which, we have one.  I go to the idea people were putting forth on these younger HC prospects - that maybe you take a guy early and let him grow and give him all the help you can. Like a QB go figure. I think that is pretty much where it is right now. I think Canales could be good.   
    • It's like with Friterer was the same as Canales. 'He's a great guy' and everyone loves him but Seattle had a HC opening with ties and no interview, even with a playoff appearance in a weak NFCS to boost his name. The NFL is all about ties and connections. It's so much more a small pond than most sectors could be so the corporate NFL bs is sooooo much thicker. All of those openings and no HC interviews? B Johnson is an anomaly, like a Kiffin, where usually you have guys that will go whereever to take a promotion even if it looks terrible for a distance, Wilks to Arizona comes to mind. It's weird and interesting how the NFL mirrors and then deviates from the rest of corporate America in their MOs.
