Right, but there have been reports that Miami isn’t moving on from Tua. He can’t go to Miami is they don’t want him.

In context though, the current situation is that the Texans aren't trading him.

Do the Dolphins still say they want to stick with Tua if that situation changes?

From the article above...

They’re a popular team on his personal wish list and have the draft capital to pull it off.

I'd rather have Watson than Tua so I'd offer Tua and a couple of picks for the better and more sure thing QB.

Interesting point. Them benching Tua during games this year is a tad concerning, but the reports were talking about how Flores and the GM believe in Tua. Of course, Rhule said the same for Cam...

Which highlights another aspect of that scenario.

Besides draft picks, the Dolphins can also offer a starter quality quarterback in return.

Would be great if the Panthers ever ended up with a bunch of draft picks for sucking poo.

We never even get to trade our good players...hope this is one of the many changes with the new regime going forward.

Watson is open to waiving his no-trade clause in his $156 million contract extension signed in September.

The Carolina Panthers, led by owner David Tepper and coach Matt Rhule, covet Watson.

...

As for the Texans, nothing has changed since chairman Cal McNair drew a line in the stand about Watson again last Friday when he said in telephone interview: “Deshaun is a Texan, and he’s going to be a Texan.”

If the Texans remain dug in on not trading Watson, then he’s not expected to report and would incur hefty fines. That would include $95,877 for missing a mandatory minicamp, $50,000 per day for every day of training camp missed, and $620,000 for each regular-season game missed.

...

The Texans have been firm in their desire to not trade Watson even though he isn’t returning telephone calls and text messages intended to sell them on their vision for a new leadership structure of general manager Nick Caserio and coach David Culley.

“Our quarterback is under contract,” a team source said. “He is going to be our quarterback.”

...

Great stuff, thanks.

The guy who wants out caves on the no-trade-clause...who knew?!?

No mention of Fitterer, hmm.  There's a lead horse here, look for the spotted coat... 😎

2nd time today I've seen the subject of fines discussed...while not mandatory, OTA's aren't too far off.

Texans certainly do appear resolute...

You literally cannot post a single article with any of the details of the nature of the discussions with the Texans or what was said or how it was said or anything of the sort.

Exactly.  Gentlemanly negotiations done in private and respectfully don't generate "a single article".  JJ's video is a clear window into how it went down, you're blind.

Going MIA, demanding a trade, refusing to return phone calls & emails, threatening to sit out, posting cryptic twitter blips, etc...

...this is the sort of selfish, low-road/low-rent aberrant behavior which generates a media firestorm of speculation --- the vast majority of it with no basis in fact!!

Texans made the guy the 2nd highest paid QB in the entire NFL and this is how he thanks them...

...clearly someone is giving a good kid some very bad advice.

      Underdog 2nd year QB preview

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      It dawned on me this morning.... that we have a fan base that can't make up it's mind whether they want to be winners or lovers.  Y'all say ya want to be winners, but ya don't act like it.  Beening a fan since before the first game every played by the Panther, I know this fan base lobes us being then underdog.  "We play better as the underdog." Which in of itself is a loser mentality.  No competitor ever wants to constantly be considered the underdog.  Just ask Steve Smith.  This season, this team is literally the ultimate underdog.  Let by a QB that fits the underdog role PERFECTLY.   This fan base should be going hog wild about being an underdog in EVERY GAME we're scheduled to play this season.  Yet, they have already labeled this seasonnas another lost season.  Which it.may end up being, but who the fug really wants that? Seriously???  I personally, want to see our team thrive. I want them to take it to the NFL. I want to see these guys, Bryce included, to step up and show the NFL that not only do they belong,  but they're bringing the fight to the other teams.   Enough of this lover mentality.    Enough with crying over not having the QB we all wish we had (whomever that may be).

      Measuring last season MUST take into account that Young had no pocket to step up and pass.  If once is going to talk about footwork of a quarterback, one must first address the oline. Does said QB have a decent line. No.  Does said QB have clean pockets to step up into when passing. Again, No.  When a QB is running for his life. his footwork, which is 💯 tied to accuracy,  is going to crumble. Just ask P. Manning.  Cam, ....any QB to EVER PLAY THE GAME! Bruce's football career is based on his accuracy.   It's one of his elite traits.   So, let's, I don't know, see how he is behind a competent oline, with competent receivers.  This fan base is so incredibly stubborn with this kid. They refuse to be unbiased at all.
