Well, this didn't last long. I am very annoyed that during the easiest month of our season per the schedule that we are rattling off this losing streak.

That would lessen one problem on our OL, that is for sure.

I am just going to disagree with you on his value. Admittedly, he didn't exactly light the world on fire so I don't think he would command the kind of haul Herbert would(Probably 2-3 1st round draft picks) but he is still a very promising young QB on a rookie deal. I definitely don't that that EVERY QB needy team would be willing to pony up a haul for Tua but I could easily see a scenario where he is a top 10 pick, and something like two 2nds or a 2nd and a 3rd. Keep in mind, he was already a top 5 pick, so it is basically trading into the top five in a previous draft, which is typically pretty pricey. So, yeah, if they were willing to make that trade, I am doing it all day long because we absolutely destroy them on the value. Do I feel like Tua is worth trading for much closer to "market value?" Honestly, not really. I was a little skeptical of him coming in, although mainly due to the injury. After seeing him last year, I do think he might be a lot more of a project than I expected.

I am not sure if you have looked around the league recently but the QB desperation is at an all time high. Tua is a top 5 draft pick on a rookie deal. I GUARANTEE that Miami can get more than that for him right now.

Trading Tua and an 18th for the 8 would be insanely stupid on their part, so I would gladly take that deal. Hell, we could turn around and move him for more than that.

No, it sounds like lack of give a damn.

He will never play an NFL game again. He screwed up his shot forever.

Correct, I meant "didn't trade for him." Look back through this thread for a pile of bad takes. It was pretty obvious he wasn't going to work out. Most guys that don't take this seriously at all, especially as little as he did.....they aren't long for the NFL.

So, where are all these people upset that we didn't sign him? This was so fuging obvious.

Yeah, that doesn't make sense to me either. I'd take Watson or Wilson in a heartbeat. I'd take any elite QB in a heartbeat.

I mean, the Riot Report review on Elflein wasn't exactly stellar either. IMO, they seemed like reaches at the time. We will have to see if they see something that we don't. We know that Whitehead and Weatherly were both examples of big misses from the last offseason. Anderson was a big hit, though.

Probably not enough for him. He should be a hot commodity for "win now" teams.

It depends on the overall plan. I guess we will see what the overall plan is. Hard to say at the moment.

I think it just depends on what the overall plan is. If it is "Watson or bust" then there isn't a rush. If the plan is "Anyone but Teddy" I could see a reason to start looking around.

Fuller to Miami is interesting. Does that change their view on the draft now?

ESPN could already have had the market cornered on streaming had they seen the writing on the wall years ago with satellite and cable subscriptions dropping. I mean....YEARS ago. I would have been an ESPN streaming subscriber back in the day. Now.....f*ck 'em. Don't need 'em. Not interested in paying Disney money, either.

IDK about that. A lot of that depends on what we plan to do with Teddy. If the plan is to jettison him come hell or high water, I'd probably look at Mariota now if he is affordable. At worst, huge boost at the #2 QB.

Eh....I'll still stream it. fug 'em.

I cannot recall who. Someone in here was trying to convince me he was gonna get a $8-10 mil/year deal or some such nonsense.

Interested to see the financials on this, since I was assured he'd get a big deal.

Agreed. He has a decade left at the very, very best. Watson may have 15 years

It was an appropriate response to the OP.
