Cam vs. Tua


Sam Mills Fan

Recommended Posts

Very straightforward question: the more we lose, the more it's likely that we're going to be in a position to draft Tua if he falls to around the 10th pick because of his injuries. If the choice presents itself, would you rather want the new coach to start his career here with Cam and the question marks that surround him or would you rather pair Tua with the new coach and start from scratch like we did in 2011?

Depends on too many factors.

If Cam requires a new contract before stepping onto the field and Tua's medicals are the two unknowns at this point.

Answer those, along with who is going to be the next coach, and I can give my opinion.

Tua most likely won’t play in the NFL dude. 

That's an absurd statement. He's expected to make a full recovery. The only long-term concern with the hip was if any tissue died before they could go in and fix it. No tissue died, so he'll be 100% in the NFL.

Tua is made of glass.  The hip injiry is the one that has everyone concerned.

But the dude hasnt been healthy since his Freshman year.  Foot, ankle, etc injuries. 

I know its the SEC, but the players are Much bigger, faster, and stronger in the NFL.  And hit way harder.

I still don’t think he will get drafted. He was minutes away from dying by every news report. He’s glass dude, worse than Manzel glass. Only a desperate team would take that risk.

I’m not sure they can determine this soon whether or not he can or will develop osteonecrosis. An angiogram might lead you to believe that there’s no significant vascular injury to the femoral head, but I’m not sure it would be definitive.

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
