i'd say that the hip injury sufffered by Tua might prevent him from having a healthy career, so i'd say burrow

If Tua goes to my dolphins, then EASILY Burrow :)

Your Dolphins made a turn last year under Flores. The Patriot window may be finally closing, at least a little. If you guys ever got Burrow I'd be at least a little squeamish here in Boston.

Probably Tua. His anticipation and accuracy are best in his class. Burrow doesn't have the strongest arm. He kinda came into his own his red shirt senior season after graduating.

Going to the Bengals is cruel and unusual punishment. They will always suck from the top/down

Tua and Joe get all the hype and rightly so based on their college work but the
best QB in the NFL (MAY) turn out to be Oregon's Justin Herbert. He's huge and
athletic (6-6, 235). He gets sloppy with his mechanics at times but that is fixable
in the NFL.

Tua and Joe are likely to be on bad teams. Herbert might just luck out and catch
a good one.

Both players could be All Pro players and yet both could be busts.

As i dolphins fan, it scares the crap out of me if they draft one and they turn out to be busts.

Burrow- he had 1 AMAZING year. Nobody thought he was first round material before the 2019 season. He also played in 1 of the best ever offenses in college football surrounded by studs (is he the next Matt Leinart??). I dont care that he transferred schools. He was beat out by a 1st rd draft pick so it doesnt bother me there. I wonder if he would have put up similar numbers at Ohio State?

Tua- he came in HIGHLY touted and played with an O-line full of 5 star recruits and offensive weapons who were 5 star recruits. Alabama has played weaker schedules so its not like be played against that many studs. I feel like he was limited in his offense as Bama rarely ever trailed and he never really had to do anything in the 4th quarter. If not for the injuries, he is a clear cut #1 overall pick. I would like to see the dolphins take him at 5 (NO trading up) as the fins can "red shirt" his 2020 season as they dont need to win now and they need to bolster their O-line.

I dont think there is a "sure thing" at QB in this draft. I think Chase Young is the overall best player.

Agree would love Tua at 5. Would also love Chase. Only chance he makes it to 5 would be him getting Tunsil'd.

tua is not going to last after that significant hip injury
getting drafted by a bad team that probably doesn't have a good O-line is the worst case scenario for him
he should actually be happy if his stock falls a little.

I don't believe Tua will go to Miami with the No. 5 pick. Dolphins gave Tua
the cold shoulder at the combine so they may be looking at Justin Herbert.
Tua's dad wasn't happy with Miami's like of enthusiasm for his son.

If I were a betting man, might place a small wager on Washington taking Tua.
Yes, I know they drafted the Ohio State QB last year.

I don't wanna jinx it but I would take Herbert, he will be hard to hurt with his frame and will play most all games where Tua and Burrow could have injury concerns. Burrow is awesome though.
