I hope history don't repeat itself.

Remember years ago the Dolphins coach was Nick Saban and he had to decide which Quarterback to chose in the 2006 Free Agency. He was told by the Medical Doctors the injuries of Drew Brees and Dante Culpepper. I don't need to tell you if the Dolphins made the right decision do I? I hope the Dolphins Brass get experts on the condition of Tua before going all in.

Come on bro. It's not the same staff, situation, doctors, or even owner.

Yes Grier was technically here, but certainly didn't have a damn thing to do with that decision.

Everybody on the site hopes we don't repeat bad decisions, of which there have been many.

The choice at that time was between two free agent QB’s who were free to sign with any team that had interest in them. If the Dolphins stay at 5, they will only have to make a decision on which QB to take if
teams above them in the draft haven’t already drafted Tua. I think the Lions drafting Tua and letting him sit out and fully recover from his hip surgery is a real possibility. So the Dolphins might just be deciding on drafting Herbert or Love at 5 or instead drafting someone like Simmons with the 5th pick.

Didn’t we trade for Culpepper?

We have plenty of medical 'experts' to consult with on this forum, no worries.

The irony of that statement from you is delicious.

If we get Tua this front office better invest heavily in the oline or we will be looking for another QB all over again in a couple years.

I stand corrected. For some reason I thought we signed him as a free agent but you are right, the Dolphins gave up a second round pick for him. Sorry for my mea culpa.

Totally forgot about that myself. Man, that's even worse. I want to go back to ignorance on that one.

which only made the decision more painfully wrong

Not only that but we better hope Rosen has developed enough to take over … or maybe draft 2 Qb's in April … worse case we have trade ammo for 5 years … IMO of course

Yep this thread has repeated history.
