Is Tua an option? Appears to be trouble in paradise...

Players thought Mahomes was trash too his first year. 

We’ll see.

They have a point about his athleticism and arm strength. This is why guys like Trask aren’t going anywhere. That stuff really matters these days.

I kept trying to tell people this.  The Dolphins are NOT sold on Tua.  Go watch his tape.  He did NOT look very good.  His arm was questionable, his mechanics were shaky and his decision making slow.  I want Tua to succeed simply because I like watching good QB play across the league as a whole, but it's far from a given at this point.

The 'Phins don't need to draft Lawrence.  They are in a position to take one of the two QB's that follows Lawrence.  Yes, they have other needs.  WR is a glaring need.  But I can understand why they might go QB if they believe Tua isn't going to cut it.  He's not on franchise money.

I don't understand why people think it is so crazy that an organization could use 2 1st round picks on QBs in a short period of time.

There isn't a team in the league that wouldn't happily give up 2 first for a franchise QB.

You are basically giving yourself 2 chances for finding a QB.

If one is bad, and the other one is good, you are happy.

If they are both are good, you trade one, you are happy.

If they both are terrible, then you are still looking for a QB.

If any of these reports are true, then it sounds like the Dolphins should look at QB this year.

Which also tells you how much good coaching matters. Andy Reid has pretty much made every qb he’s had look good. 

Yeah. He said he came back to the second training camp a completely different qb. It’s why I want Lance to sit for most of the year if we draft him.

I saw the Dolphins play three times and he was horrible to bad in each game. I hoped that Grier's (Dolphins GM) declaration that Tua was their starting would mean that they would not draft a QB in the upcoming draft. However, I am still not completely convinced that the Dolphins will not draft a QB in the first round. I am guessing that Grier was responsible for the pick . Tua was that bad. 

Herbert is clearly the better QB and Miami chose Tua ahead of him. Grier may be staking his tenure in Miami on Tua -  especially if he doubles down on the pick by passing on a QB this season.

I would not want him in Carolina. That damn WFT win continues to come back to haunt this franchise.

give it context

when?

Tua has actually played regular season games

Tyreek said it in an interview. Kelce disputes that claim though but said Mahomes had to transition from “just a regular gun slinger”.

      REPORT: Panthers open to trading down from #8

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      All options should be on the table. Always. I never loved Gettleman's probably ego driven stunt of running the pick up immediately to show everyone how confident you are of your decision. If the phone is ringing I'm listening. Yeah, you may really like a prospect available but someone on the other end of the line might like someone available to the point that they're willing to do something stupid to get him. Now granted, working against us is the reality that our owner is the poster child for that person on the other end of the line but that aside, yeah we should always listen if offers are coming in and there's time on the clock to hear them.

      ^This.  However, if some team feels froggy enough and nobody at the top of our board falls, let them jump.

      It could make sense, but I don't know who it would be if we're talking QB. I just don't see the Steelers trading up that far, it's not in their blood. I strongly feel they're angling for Milroe or Dart, and will be patient.  No need to get aggressive for those guys.  Other teams won't have an issue letting the Saints pick Sanders haha.   Our best shot is 1 of Campbell/Membou (or maybe it could even be Banks) are available & a team like SF or SEA with a boatload of picks and OL needs makes the trade.  Or it's Jeanty and the Bears/Cowboys/etc. really want him.  Put yourself in other team's shoes - no one else is worth trading up for.  This draft is Carter, Hunter, & Jeanty...then a huge field (25+) of late-1st/early-2nd round talent.    If anything, it's the OL scenario.  Seattle or SF are the perfect spots - move into the teens, add a 2nd, and a future pick (at min) The only Shedeur options I see would be CLE (we get 33 & next year's 1st minimum) for 8 or NYG and we get 34, 99 and 2026 1st type package.
