Yeah I mean I fully get the need / desire to have a different QB but Tua?  In one year we'll have a front page filled with "We really thought this was that much better?  All he'll do is win just enough games to keep us from drafting [UNC darling QB of the season], [some dude from Alabama], or [whoever else is a sure fire can't miss definitely won't Ryan Leaf us prospect that Billy from the swamp has a hot tip on]"

Followed one week later by, "HOW THE HELL DO YOU FRACTURE AN EARLOBE?  AND HOW DOES IT KEEP YOU OUT ALL SEASON?" with we suck again memes attached.

Tua is currently a mid tier QB with a lot of room to grow and develop. He hasn’t played a full season’s worth of games and is putting up solid numbers behind a worse line than ours. He should only get better as he develops AND is on a rookie contract. He is also a lefty which means Moton is protecting his blindside. He is also on a rookie contract. The Dolphins haven’t given him a real chance, but see an opportunity to get a young top 5 QB talent in Watson.

Bolded section is key. Miami isn't giving up on him because they're some master evaluating team but because they know they can get Watson. They're not giving up Tua for Stafford and they wouldn't be giving up Tua for Cousins. If he was as bad as some of you say, they'd give him away...kinda like Minshew was.

The Dolphins are giving up 3 first round picks to move on from Tua.

Let that sink in.

The Carolina Panthers are reminding me of the geeky kid at the middle school dance that is asking every girl standing by the outside wall to dance with him and getting turned down by all of them except the big boned girl with braces, then they only dance with him for half of a song.

No, get better taste in QBs for just find cheap filler until you can make a hard but smart push for a franchise QB.

Tua peeked in college. Just face it, happens a lot. We have had 2 for our 'answer' in a row. It's just how it goes and rationalizing it doesn't change that fact.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
