Not crazy about what I’d expect to be a good portion of half our draft to get burrow rather focus on getting tua and retaining some extra picks
And fwiw Tua started a higher percentage of his college games than Burrow. Seems to me that Tua is more likely to be on the field than any of them imo rtr
Anxious to see how long it'll take me to talk myself off the ledge and convince myself Herbert is good. I'm gonna say I should be there by 3 PM tomorrow.
I’ll say this on the Phins, they’ve done a great job of no one having a clue what they’re doing. Seems like there are half a dozen possibilities.
its pretty impressive how much they have muddied the waters we want burrow then we want Herbert then we want an OT at 5 then we want to trade up to 3 for a OT Now we want Tua
20+ years but I actually have some blind faith in this current regime. After tonight I likely won't but for now...
Beasley is saying Herbert at 5 now I’m about to go on social media blackout because this shit is getting ridiculous
What would everyones response be if we took Herbert? Would you stop watching? Would it not change anything?
I really hope around the time someone just sits with a big wheel of different lines to say and spins it for each reporter who calls thinking they are getting some inside info.
Fucking Barry Jackson trying to pimp his butt boy Chawlie Casserly. Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz And Charley Casserly hears they're trying to trade up for Herbert. And two people in touch with Dolphins front office (who I talked to) emerged with completely different view of whether they're taking Tua or Herbert. Intrigue! Quote Tweet Joe Schad @schadjoe · 1h Jeff Darlington projects Tua to the Miami Dolphins. Says the Dolphins cover leadership and Alpha Males. Sure, let's discount the guy who sits in market and covered the team for years.
It's really hard to trust a national guy, especially one who is pretty far down the totem pole as far as 'insiders' go. The problem is that a local writer like BJ, who has next to no credible sources, runs something like this, and all of a sudden you have clickbait.
If they pick Tua, I’m buying new dolphins gear for my son and I tonight. If they draft Herbert I’m not spending a dime. I won’t stop being a fan, and I’ll certainly pull for Herbert to be a HOF caliber player, but we just settled for mediocrity with tannehill for 7 years. He won’t get me excited Additionally, I’ll probably not give the current dolphins front office the benefit of the doubt going forward. You don’t suffer a year of purging the roster to settle on the “safe” guy
I would hope that for the first time they were right and everyone else is wrong. Younger me was furious with the Tannehill pick, but then by game 1 of the season, I was on board. Hopefully an older me will be more cautious this time. Wait, Herbert might be worth it now.
Ultimately this is Ross’ show and with him coming to so many Bama games and the time he’s personally invested in Tua, I can’t see how he isn’t the pick it would be brutal!
To think Ross was the smartest one in the room when he pounded the table for lamar jackson but listened to grier who wanted minkah
And where did that get us besides an additional first rounder? Grier lost all credibility the second he made that choice and will get fired long before he strong arms Ross once again.
It’s not like Minkah was a bad selection though and I can’t imagine Lamar would be near as successful here as he’s been in Baltimore
