Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:The thing I don't understand is why the Dolphins don't already know if he's their guy or not. They should loving know by now. Because we have 1 1/2 seasons of this Tua. You can basically throw his first two season in the garbage they are completely meaningless and we learned nothing from them. You should know, you were his loudest detractor.

I don't agree the uncertainty surrounding Tua has to do with his playing time. It has to do with his skill level. If Tua has another season largely identical to the one we just had, there'd still be a debate over whether or not to pay him.

Tua unable to get a 3rd wr (or te) going despite having 2 guys who strangle all the attention is insanely bad

I think unfortunately NFL QBs missing games is just par for the course now. The ironmen QBs are a thing of the past despite the NFL's efforts to protect the position. There are just too many games and the balance of power between passrushers and offensive linemen has become too unbalanced.

Amy Pole Her posted:His injury concerns don’t have to do with playing time? Interesting take. Tua's injury concerns aren't really any more significant that Joe Burrow's or Lamar Jackson's. He's a Dalton Line guy. He's franchise QB purgatory. If he was slightly better then giving him a long-term contract would be a no brainer; if he was slightly worse, cutting him loose would be a no brainer.

They’d already given Burrow the contract before his injury concerns popped up. Different situation entirely. We’ll see what the do

My point was less about his injury history although that certainly plays a part in why I don’t want them to pay him huge dollars right now. He’s had a season and a half under McDaniel and he’s regressed. He has to show that he can play at that 2022 when not concussed level for a full 17 games and not get worse every quarter of the season. If he has another year where he starts out great and gets progressively worse franchise him and start looking for other options.

Not saying missing time isn't normal, but there's plenty of QBs proving the exception. Allen has started pretty much every game (after the rookie year). Mahomes hasn't started less than 16 games a season since being a starter. Goff missed like 3 games in 2021, but other than that has played pretty much every game with both the Rams and Lions. Russel Wilson missed 2-3 games per year with the Broncos, but started every game under the Seahawks.

They are literally the exception. And even for those exceptions there were exceptions. The seasons are longer, the protection is weak and the game is still dangerous.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:Yeah Burrow signed his extension this past offseason, then his season got ruined by the wrist. Tua was healthy this whole past season, wasnt he? It was the year before where he got concussion after concussion. Yup yup that’s correct. My point with that being Im really happy his durability proved to exist (thank you Judo?) but similar to Burrow, I’d love to see if he can keep it up another season. More reason I’d rather wait it out. The more I type it out the more i realize it’s unrealistic in the current nfl but hey it’s a forum and its may.

I'd argue the nature of Tua's injuries has me more worried than the normal injury stuff. Like maybe judo was legit or maybe it was dumb luck that he was able to protect his brain last season, either way I'm just concerned about that dude's brain health in a way that's different from an elbow or leg injury

Pay him big bucks, negotiate on guaranteed money, other than injury guarantee. He's played one season where he wasn't knocked out for multiple games. So, injury concerns, yeah, but also stayed upright behind an ever worsening line last year, so his getting worse as the season went on is understandable.

Since he HAS had several serious injuries but it never affects him at all somehow You can't really count on your QB having Wolverine-rear end mutant healing powers that make injuries not matter

It really feels like we're a huge hit and concussion away from the dude needing to consider retirement. If they'd meet you and keep the injury guaranteed lower than the playing time guarantees then yeah sign away. They clearly are going after a 5/250/200 guaranteed type deal.

Just pay Tua, so many qbs are terrible. If Lawrence can miss, anyone can miss. That said, the line they've got currently will get him killed.

Apparently Maye and the two rookie receivers stayed late working at OTAs today. We are so back baby https://x.com/ChadGraff/status/1792620326204928465 Also Cole Strange’s knee is super hosed up to the point that Mayo calls him “month to month” which seems not ideal. This O line can’t exactly handle setbacks. At least it’s only May.

Might actually be a blessing if Strange being out allows Sidy Sow, Mafi, Layden Robinson, or one of our other 11 interior guys to grab the spot and hold it down. I'd rather that than Strange be at LG and get injured or be terrible again by week 3
