That's not how value works. Value transcends positional need. The sharpest teams understand that and embrace it. You can't merely look at which teams apparently needed a quarterback. That's the mistake many people are making. If the draft had slipped further then many teams that didn't need a quarterback would have inquired about Rosen. One of them would have swooped him up...our opportunity gone. It would have been the same type of flawed thinking that led us to keep Tannehill for 7 years without competition.
The sharpest guy I met in Las Vegas taught me to just keep making good bets, whether I liked them or not. If I saw something out of whack then grab it, whether it was a pointspread, or a money line, or a prop wager. He was 100% correct. Once I started doing that it was amazing how the bottom line cooperated. I walked around feeling like a thief. Those were the days when every casino had its own independent sportsbook and none of them communicated with each other. Legwork was everything.
The same principal applies to Tua next year. If some team has the first pick and seemingly doesn't need a quarterback, that doesn't mean they don't need and won't draft Tua.
Gaps at that position are enormous. Arizona made the correct move and the Dolphins made the correct exploratory move.
I don’t fully agree, but I do understand the logic and appreciate the response. Regardless whether I agree in full, they’ve got at least 1 young QB prospect on the roster now and could end up with another next season if they are as bad as a lot of people believe they will be.
