@@e_toussaint941 Haha! Need him to hunt Josh Allen!

Thank you! Really appreciate it.

Dude looks great for a rookie!

Feels great to have him on the roster. If only the Dolphins can get some guards...

Do you think he's lying?

Flores was a joke. His sorry butt won't never be a head coach again.

@@tuat.mvpformallybigd.2635 He was unnecessarily cruel. Hopefully, he's learned from this.

The hatters will say anything. Dolphins fans already knew this was happening.

@@C_Ase_Ce Honestly, I didn't know it was that bad. Bullygate 2?

That's a reasonable take. Though I'd temper any expectations that have to do with comparisons to Mahomes or Hurts. Ideally, I'd like him to be mobile enough to escape linemen that are bearing down on him in the pocket. He does an ok job, but I'd like to see that improve. Other than that, maybe pick up 4 or 5 yards when it's man coverage and the LBs are 15 yards downfield, with their backs turned to the QB. I'll take it. I'm not expecting anything super dynamic, but I'd be pleasantly surprised if that were the case.

I agree. It should help assuming OBJ still has something left in the tank. I just wish we can actually get him on the field. Jonnu Smith should probably help in that area as well.

@@MattNewton he does, he’s still very capable of explosive plays. My ravens just didn’t use him

@@kameronjones6633 I took a look at his film from last year and I agree with you. But that was last year. He's a year older with yet another injury. And the money he took to play for the Dolphins was a lot less than the money he got from the Ravens just last year. Is that reflective of how the league views him? I'm not sure. But I am hoping for the best.

@@MattNewton yea but that can be interpreted in a few ways. His contract is very incentive driven, and if he gets starter amount of reps he can easily obtain it which will lead to a bigger contract. Or…he just wants to play there

@@kameronjones6633 Both good points. I guess I am eager to actually see him on the field. Once he scores his first TD, I'll be relieved. 😄

Mobility is certainly not his strength. But it can be improved. Let's hope this newfound focus on playmaking helps him perform against the better defenses in the NFL.

@MattNewton In his first year, when he was slimmer and more nimble, he had some nice runs. Let's hope he can return to that again. Some fear him getting hurt again, as he has been brittle, but in truth, his major injuries were either flukes or the result of very aggressive hits. He may not suffer those again for years.

@@c2jones That's a good point on his injuries. A couple of them in college, he held the ball too long and put himself in a bad spot. Saban wasn't very pleased with that. I rather him be nimble enough to escape hits instead of being a sitting duck. But he has to make smart decisions to protect himself.

@MattNewton That gift he has with improvising on the roll and allowing receivers to make a second move is something we don't want to trample. He gets into trouble, in my assessment, not from holding the ball too long (in his NFL career), but from being a statute in the pocket and making hasty decisions. When he rolls and can find receivers breaking for the ball, he's hard to stop. If he starts getting more mobile with his legs, he can freeze defenders from rushing in on him.

@@c2jones I was really referring to college in regard to holding the ball too long. McDaniel coaches him to do the opposite. His 1st 2 years in the NFL, he was still recovering from that devastating hip injury, so I don't think he was at his peak. We might see (physically) peak Tua for the first time this season. And it couldn't come soon enough.

Ouch! 😂

@@MattNewtonhahaha solid breakdown brother. Y’all just resemble eachother. Subscribed 💪🏻

@@mikegraham9401 I appreciate you, bro!

Haha! Last I checked, those QBs aren't married to supermodels.

I mean, he was still making $25-$30M a year plus incentives and contracts, not sure he needed a supermodel to help pay his bills. The amount they are making in a year would support the majority of the population for the rest of their lives if they weren’t stupid. It’s fine, it’s the market, but unless you are top 3 (he isn’t) it just means you can support a good enough roster to win the SB.

@@Feldubb can you try any harder to make no sense at all?

@MattNewton lol he could have been married to a blow up doll with a picture of Giselles face taped to it and it's still a good idea to take a team friendly deal that allows the organization to stack talent around you

@@Feldubb No, he didn't need financial support, it was merely a joke. But these guys are hyper-competitive and they are not leaving a dollar on the table. Very few would. Peyton didn't. That's why Brady is Brady. He's different. An outlier. Can't expect the outlier to be the norm. But in a year or two, his salary will fall back to the pack. Remember the outrage over Daniel Jones' 4 year-160M deal in March 2023? 17 short months later and it is a below market deal.

I’ll bet you any amount of money he had more passing yards than your QB on your favorite team last season tho so I guess ur wrong ?

You'll be giving him his flowers soon enough. I'm not worried.

I'm one of them who does blame Tua for that throw. That Claypool copout is amongst the most convenient (but flawed) grab-bag apologetic exercises going. Claypool is a very infrequently used receiver with scant few reps with Tua in game situations. Moreover, he was in heavy traffic. He was the very last person Tua should be going to in a critically important drive in a critically important game. There were others more open in single coverage with far safer, higher percentage odds of completion. It was only 2nd down. Blaming the interception on Claypool ignores the decision Tua made. Tua is responsible for managing and protecting the ball. He didn't need to put his trust in Claypool. There were easier opportunities elsewhere. And, Tua stared at Claypool the whole time. The DB was just waiting for it. Matt has an excellent video on that on this very channel. A couple weeks back. It is accurate.

@@choppahchubz9934 A lot of successful QBs had help. There's no shame in that. It's what he does with the help is what matters. 😉

Bro Brady and bills defenses you mean ?

It’s Tua Time!! Just hope the rest the team can stay healthy! Only reason we keep falling short. Tua gotta carry the squad with no oline no dline no linebackers no TE! Still Tua time !!

Well said. And I presume some of these packages are born from practice during the week and then incorporated into the scripted plays. But there is an opportunity cost associated when not maximizing the personnel available on any given play. In a game of inches, you have no plays to spare.

@@MattNewton Precisely. Especially when your adjustments shrink the offense into a shell of itself; often so void of creativity that success ratios drop considerably. Those chronic lateral screens are just one of many examples.

I have to agree. McDaniel is at his best when he blends his genius-level creativity with extraordinary talent on the field. Makes little sense to remove either or both from the game.

@@MattNewton If he has his most elite talent incomplete on the field, why wouldn't the inclination be to become more creative to account for that? Why condense innovation when he needs it most?

Yeah, that's the other problem when there's inferior talent on the field. You have to scheme them open because they can't get open themselves. And that's not to say those players don't have value. They do. But he should always keep an alpha on the field whenever possible. He's lucky to have two. Don't bench them both at the same time.

I hope so, but he's not getting any younger...

Thank you, kind sir! But you didn't mention what have you been impressed with so far? Or not impressed with, if you choose. 😁

Haha! Well done! I should probably do the same. But in all seriousness, I hope he has a bounce back season. The Dolphins could sure use it.

It would be great to see a twitchier Tua in 2024. Making dynamic plays is what separates the great from the elite. My expectations are still tempered in that department, but an improvement of any kind would be noteworthy.

Bro you are not the biggest fan of tua. Even tho i know he is the g.o.a.t. I told him to be humble. Marino was my fav QB before tua signed. Tua is more accurate than dan, quicker elite release than dan, and will never have a negative rushing yrd season. He is better than dan. Most anticipatory qb ever. Better than brees and warner…

@@gwappocapone6538 Even if he is all those things, don't you think he can get better? Is his game is flawless? And I don't like to compare Dolphins players, but Dan Marino is in the HOF. He also had 99 consecutive starts at one point in his career.

At some point in the season, the team is going to run into a brick wall. They can try to either go around it or through it. I hope McDaniel chooses the former versus the latter.

"But more times than not, being physical matters." Agreed. I think you can get away with a finesse style of play in the regular season or against inferior opponents and tally up the victories. In the playoffs, it's another thing entirely. Marino's teams were often toppled by more physical teams in the playoffs and especially in his only Super Bowl. I agree about the rule changes but the last teams standing every season often have a strong element of physicality built into their DNA.

@MattNewton I would generally concur with that. I could point to three or four exceptions in the playoffs here and there, but ultimately, the physicality of opponents was superior in their playoff losses, particularly to Buffalo and yes, to San Francisco. I would also add, however, that those teams weren't just more physical. Dan could have potentially gotten around that. It was that those opponents had better talent as well and were far more balanced. It's just that the passing game is so key now. For instance, on your question, are the Dolphins physical enough to win a SB? I think they can outscore more physical teams if Tua keeps his composure. He tends to be especially mistake-prone when he feels any kind of consistent pressure (unlike Burrow who thrives with it). But winning a SB with the opponents winning both sides of the line? If Mahomes was on this team, maybe. Very unsure about Tua. His supporters want everything around him to be bulletproof as it is.

"It was that those opponents had better talent as well and were far more balanced." Agreed. And because they had better talent, they were able to control the lines of scrimmage and thus impose a brand the physicality the Dolphins couldn't match. Shula went from being the bully in the 70's to getting bullied by the 80's. It's likely because he had too many underwhelming drafts during the Marino years. And Marino could only cover up so much of the team's flaws. He also went from coaching a physical brand of football to a finesse brand once he realized he had a cheat code at QB. When Marino's team ran into bullies, they generally gave up their lunch money. I hope McDaniel's team can learn from that.

@MattNewton This is exactly correct. Many overlook the dynamics that you have just highlighted. Under the Shula years, initially, when the Dolphins were just coming off their SB loss to a physical Washington team and John Riggins, they still had Foster at Center and the killer Bees on defense. But that eventually faded. Bust after bust after bust, even on positions that weren't critical while critical ones were overlooked, is what plagued the Marino years and highly contributed to his rosters being less fortified than that of his divisional rivals, particularly Buffalo. Throughout Shula's entire time with Dan, not one other HOF player was drafted, very few Pro Bowl players, and not once a 1000-yard rusher. (Jimmy Johnson delivered all that in just his short time here.) Remember, in the pre-free agency era when NFL teams were built exclusively through the draft, missing on a first-round pick was even more costly than it is today. When Don Shula did it in back-to-back drafts in 1986 and 1987 as he looked to develop a defense to complement the Dolphins' high-flying Dan Marino-led offense, he effectively doomed the franchise to constantly come up short when it counted in the playoffs. There are many examples, but let's consider John Bosa and Eric Kumerow (John is the father of Nick and Joey). Both Bosa and Kumerow were drafted higher than their talent should have dictated, and neither player started a single game during three years as Dolphins. Some pundits point to Marino's lack of Super Bowl rings and suggest that's a detractor to him. The truth is that Shula's poor drafting in Marino's early years led to his status as the eternal bridesmaid. And when it came to trades, it was just as bad. In Shula's final year here, the owner opened up the checkbook and gave Shula all he wanted. They had 19 1st round draft choices on the team. It mattered not. They were quickly eliminated in the playoffs. It's a different league now with the rules and they can only manage with what they have. I feel that their running game (with all that speed) will be the biggest difference-maker. And perhaps Jonnu as a relief valve for Tua.

@@c2jones "I feel that their running game (with all that speed) will be the biggest difference-maker." I believe in their running game, but in short yardage situations, they come up short more often than I'd like. And going 5-wide on 4th and 1 with a pocket QB is not the answer. I will say this though: if you are going to have a finesse running game and need to pick up short yardage against more physical opponents, you have to out-scheme them. You need a lot of creativity and flawless execution. It's possible, but it requires a lot of work and a lot of planning. It's much easier to just line up a do a tush-push (not saying the Dolphins should do this, of course).

yes especially after jordyn brooks and calias campbell

@@TheRealFortMaker I sure hope so. I'm really tired of the Phins getting bullied by other teams...especially late in the season and in the playoffs.

@@MattNewton sure its because of that but because of the narratives and hate create this fake reality with them but the thing is this is tua first real season where he played all 17 games, just give him time especially with guys like Malik Washington Jaylen Wright and chop Robinson will fit the scheme perfectly for them and they had a A- draft rating and a A FA signing. Perfect offseason for them

@@TheRealFortMaker The offseason went better than I thought it would, I admit. But Aaron Rodgers and Joe Burrow are back. CJ Stroud looks like he's destined for a deep playoff run. And of course, there's the freaking Bills and Josh Allen. So I guess I'm cautiously optimistic at this point. But hopeful.

The Ravens somehow got former MVP Lamar Jackson to play under his 5th year option and he was far more accomplished than Tua is at this stage of his career. Other QBs have played on the franchise tag which is a bit different because it's obviously more money. But I think McDaniel and Grier have been consistent in building up Tua's confidence and did not want the contract to be a distraction to his seemingly fragile ego. Especially since, they have an out before the 2027 season.

@MattNewton Lamar didn't threaten to hold out. Tua did. Other QBs played through their 5th year contract, but Tua refused. That's the difference. A contract doesn't mean a contract to some. People should remember that, but most are too happy to have others spend when the money isn't theirs. If one has a contract, they should honor it. With a tough early schedule and so much riding on this year being the year because of these salaries, the Dolphins caved because they need Tua a full participant in camp. Let's call it the NFL version of extortion. It used to be more common than it is now.

Good point. The Dolphins had no better options for 2024 so maybe they felt their hands were forced into the contract. But the commitment is manageable so that is a positive for the Dolphins. I do wonder, however, when was the last time a QB under contract held out into regular season. Just curious.

I don't recall hearing about an under-contract QB holdout for some time now. It's been so long that I'd have to look.

@MattNewton My previous post here is missing. The point was that it's been some time since I've heard of an under-contract QB holding out. So much that I'd have to go and look.

"The excuses are already built-in." Exactly. Outside of maybe the interior o-line, Tua has everything he needs on offense (barring injury) to have a career season. Frankly, anything less would be a disappointment. But I'm optimistic he'll have his best year yet. We shall see.

It's funny. A couple years ago, there were so many people who were up in arms because of Jones' contract. Then, people were comparing Trevor Lawrence to Daniel Jones at the end of last season, stats and all. Yet, today no one is really up in arms about Lawrence's contract. Go figure.

@MattNewton They should be. I have high hopes for Tua, though he hasn't warranted that kind of money yet in my eyes, and I have expectations for Love, Purdy and Goff. But Jones and Lawrence especially, are certainly overpaid. Look at Lawrence's numbers. He has more turnovers than scores.

Thanks for the kind words. I put great effort into making quality content that is both interesting and informative. Hopefully, my next video will be better than my last.

@@MattNewton I am confident that your progression will be sure and stout throughout. For discerning minds, you have few competitors.

@@c2jones I really appreciate the support. My goal is to release a film study video every Thursday. We'll see how it goes.

@@MattNewton I have a superb topic for you if you want to explore it. Pertains to Tua. I'll chime back in later. 😉

@@c2jones Sure, sounds good to me!

Thanks for the comment! That's good one. He's going on 3 years and I believe he was hand-picked by McDaniel to be a Deebo Samuel-type receiver with the ball in his hands in his offense. Let's see if he can earn some real playing time in 2024.

​@@MattNewton He's built more like an Aiyuk type in my opinion and was running some sweeps(last preseason) but I don't see him being super physical like Deebo. But I wanna see him on the field because he has Talent~

No, I totally agree about his build. But I thought that was the team's vision during the draft process. He's a guy who you manufacture touches for but not nearly as skilled or polished a receiver as an Aiyuk. I think Welker also had a hand in scouting him at his alma mater Texas Tech. Hopefully, he shows us something this season.

@@MattNewton Yeah,.Welker asked him to be Drafted~ We really haven't seen enough of the guy to even KNOW what type off wr he is,.but he was fantastic in college so I'm READY! ; )

@@matthewmatt5285 Agreed. Need to see more. He made the 53 last season. He was in the game on the 3rd and 4th plays of the season against the Chargers. Almost scored on an end-around so the coaches clearly had a plan for him last season. But sometimes plans change...

Thanks for the comment. Terrible luck. Injuries surely took its toll especially late in the season. But there were times when McDaniel used sub-optimal packages when his roster was relatively healthy. I'll explore that in an upcoming episode.

Thanks again for the comment, I uploaded a part 3 video with video clips of the personnel groupings when the team was relatively healthy from weeks 1-5. Check it out! Hopefully, it won't be a problem in 2024.

I'm so tired of the Buffalo Bills. McDaniel has to find a way to get past these guys. The time is now.

Thanks for the comment. I think I will make a part 3 with video from earlier in the season to add cite further examples. Hopefully I can get it done before training camp begins.

Thanks again for the comment, I uploaded a part 3 video with video clips of the personnel groupings when the team was relatively healthy from weeks 1-5. Check it out!

Thanks for the comment. This is more about the Dolphins maximizing available talent than it is blaming McDaniel for players that were unavailable. He could have rotated his available talent better so that a threat is on the field at all times whenever possible. But I agree, the Dolphins went out and got more talent on offense to fix the issue. Hopefully, it will be a non-issue in 2024.

@@MattNewton I understand what you're saying, but with Mostert and Waddle out, that left just Achane and Tyreek as the super explosive playmakers. It wouldn't make sense to start Jeff Wilson over Achane when Tyreek is on the field just so that you can stagger snaps so that one of them is always on the field. It also wouldn't make sense to have those guys run slower to conserve energy. In both of those cases you'd be hampering the offense's ability to pressure defenses with multiple dangerous threats, which is the whole point of their offense. The far bigger issue is the interior offensive line injuries. The offense as a whole was substantially less dangerous when they were out, and McDaniel resorted to a higher percentage of gimmicky run plays due to the inability to punish defenses with inside zone runs like he did in the beginning of the season. If Miami's starting line played 18 games together like Buffalo did rather than their top 3 guys playing just two halves together all season, the personnel used on any one play wouldn't matter. All 5 RBs played decently when the line was healthier, and Tua had no issues spreading the ball around when his pocket time wasn't an atrocious 1.8/1.9/2.0 seconds like it was weeks 16-18

@@smudgeous4068 The injures took a toll on the entire team down the stretch and the offensive line was certainly no exception. It affected the entire offense. But there is a reason why coaches never use injuries as an excuse. Because everyone has to deal with them. And I don't mean to change the subject (forgive me), but the defense was decimated as well losing Chubb, Phillips, Baker, Van Ginkel, Howard and others and they still performed admirably in the final two games of the season against Buffalo and Kansas City. I believe Fangio did a better job with a decimated unit than McDaniel did with his. A coach may be dealing with injuries (it's a variable that's impossible to predict) but he has to give his remaining players the best opportunity to succeed. In the playoff game, I believe the defense once again outperformed the offense and McDaniel got a lot of his guys back for that one. McDaniel has to do a better job across the board, but his use of personnel is a major one for me. Again, the good thing is the Dolphins signed more playmakers this offseason so it shouldn't be a problem in 2024, I hope.

@@MattNewton I think the weather played a larger factor in defensive success for both teams in the wildcard game than you're crediting it. By the end of the game it was 50F "feels like" colder than 2022's wildcard game in Buffalo, which kicked off at 23F. Mahomes was playing behind the #1 pass block win rate O-Line facing a squad starting old edge rushers off the street and a secondary missing half of its starters, yet had 1 incompletion fewer than Tua and posted a sub-85 passer rating. Tua was facing the #2 defense featuring the league's best DT with multiple interior O-Line starters missing. KC didn't need to blitz to generate pressure so had more guys in coverage and did just fine against Miami's weakened run game. Achane had 9 yards on 6 carries with a long of 3. Mostert had a long of 8 but averaged 3 1/2 yards on his other 7 carries. Much like Mahomes in the Super Bowl in Tampa, Miami needed the O-Line to be healthier to have any shot at competing in the game. Their best skill players were hampered by some combination of bad interior blocking, playing while banged up (Mostert + Waddle both played but were listed as questionable), and in extreme cold.

@@smudgeous4068 I can't discount the weather being a factor, but both teams played in the same conditions. The Dolphins often get favorable weather conditions (advantages in Sept/October) at home but I've yet to hear a team say, "we lost to the Dolphins because of the weather in Miami." Speaking of Miami, the week 18 game vs the Bills was in Florida. That defense was heavily decimated. They lost additional players in the game. They forced multiple turnovers and even a late turnover on downs. But the offense couldn't come up with a crucial scoring drive in any of their 4th quarter possessions. I believe it's largely a coaching issue while I believe (I truly hate to put words in your mouth) you think it's an injury/player availability issue. I get your perspective. But I think the coaching is the main culprit. Every time the offense fails (KC, Buffalo, Tenn, Balt) it's because of injuries along the o-line. If that's the case, they should have re-signed Robert Hunt and acquired better, more durable players along the interior o-line. It should have been an offseason priority. They didn't, so it suggests to me it's not a priority for them because they think they can coach around it because of McDaniel's scheme. When KC lost that SB to SF, you know what they did? They made the o-line an offseason priority. And as you said, "Mahomes was playing behind the #1 pass block win rate." That suggests to me the KC coaching staff realized they could not overcome that obstacle and addressed it in the offseason. The Dolphins decided to add more weapons to work around the o-line. If that's their plan (a presumption, I know) they really have to own it if it is ineffective against quality defenses.

Thank you for the kind words! I'll be adding more content weekly.

Thanks for the comment. And of course, context matters. I am not blaming him for not playing players that are unavailable to play. I am only blaming him for when players are available and left on the sideline. I think Devon Achane should have been on the field when Hill left the game. He was available to play. Robbie Chosen could have used his speed to stretch the defense but instead he went with Chase Claypool? McDaniel's offense is built on speed and he left two of the faster players on offense on the sideline during the most critical drive at that point of the season.

@@MattNewton In that area of the field, Achane would’ve been more of a speed threat than Chosen, who has more long speed than quickness. IMO, and I love Tua, but Tua, McDaniel, and especially Claypool are most at fault, since you kinda have to throw past the sticks there.

Agreed about Chosen and the long speed. But Chosen running a route up the left seam might have cleared out the left safety (who intercepted the pass) and given Claypool a chance at a one-on-one on the sideline. His use of personnel and play design on that particular play didn't do the players on the field any favors. But Tua and Claypool also executed poorly so I agree, they also share some of the blame. The fact that both Achane and Chosen were on the sideline was a headscratcher to me.

@@MattNewton chosen wouldn’t have been able to run that clear out. Be honest with yourself.

I'm being totally honest. In week 3 vs the Broncos, Chosen did just that. He ran up the numbers, put a move on Pat Surtain II and scored a long touchdown up the seam. It's on film. The Bills have undoubtedly seen it. At the very least it puts the safety in conflict. Double the seam or break on the out. If it makes him think for a second it could have made all the difference in how it turned out for the Dolphins.

The Dolphins added more talent in the offseason so that should help them avoid situations like this in 2024.

I like your videos. You're darn right we have a personnel problem. The problem is only Jalen and Tyreek were fast enough and quick enough to get to the spot in 2.1 seconds. Tua has to double clutch or throw late we have a problem. The addition of OBJ, who can separate against man coverage will help. Jonnu Smith can also beat man and is a Y.A.C. machine. Mike knows what he is doing. With OBJ, Jonnu, Forreston,(they also love TE Hill) M. Washington, T. Washington, Ez-E and Achane training as a Wide receiver, look for a nearly unstoppable force in 2024. Barrios, I wouldn't buy a house in Miami just yet. Braxton, you may be the odd man out. Cracraft to practice squad/(coaching in his future?) I think they have an agreement with River to always have a job as long as Mike is the coach, the man is a coach on the field, also the best blocking WR on the team!

Thanks for the comment! I am going to take a close look at how well OBJ wins his WR reps playing on the outside because that will really unlock the offense. Jonnu does everything on film this offense wants and needs. This should be a truly exciting season.

Ha ha! Maybe not. But I know the market is the "market is the market" though...

And I think that's why Tua's so "salty". Publicly, the love him but privately (as it relates to his contract) they are saying something different. Money talks. And Tua believes the Dolphins aren't talking loudly enough.

@@MattNewton yeah makes no sense phins are a losing franchise and now winning. The only other person to do that is Goff but I still choose Tua over him. But damn not offering even 40 is a slap in the face. no other QB is taking less than that and expect them to really win 🤦🏽‍♂️

Maybe the Dolphins want him to follow the Tom Brady model and take less money to get more help and possibly more wins. We'll see how it shakes out...

@@MattNewton less money bwahhhhh that’s how another team can come in that needs a QB can offer him more that already have a better OLine and defense. Go look who is getting paid

@@BigKahunaKai711 That's true. Washington didn't want to pay Cousins and Minnesota stepped in. Cowboys are doing something similar with Prescott. It's fascinating, to say the least.

He's the best QB the Dolphins have had since Marino and he fits McDaniel's system very well. The Dolphins have to pay him on par with Goff or Lawrence because that's the market rate if they want to keep him. But I'm not sure the Dolphins feel the same way.

@@MattNewton He is a mediocre QB not on par with a #5 pick. I see him as another Tanehill. He has not shown that he is a driving force, he is a bus rider. They want him to succeed and have given him so much support that it is ridiculous...even Skylar would have done better given the same support.!!!!...tua in my eyes is just a mid pack QB...give the little boy 45 mil....and he should be happy...he can;'t carry a team...he is too little...too brittle...

@@gavriilnick4225 Sometimes certain things have more value to some than others. Tua has more value to the Dolphins than other teams. They have to decide how much that value is. The way I see it, it's less about how much Tua will cost the Dolphins as much as have they seen enough to commit to him long term. If they haven't seen enough then wait and deal with the consequences of waiting. That's really all there is too it.

How much should Tua be paid now? QB salaries aren't going down.

@@MattNewton 50M

I think 50M is the minimum the Dolphins can offer Tua's camp. But is it enough? The total guaranteed money over the life of the contract is the likely sticking point.

@@roguebossa He might be the best combination of speed and power the Dolphins have on the roster at that position! Can't wait to see what he can do.
