Ppl keep saying this, but this injury has a longer recovery time, than exists before the draft.
Why is that so hard to comprehend?
If you say you are willing to risk it, fine, but it is likely not possible to know for sure.
Now what ? 2020 QB?

No QB will excell if we don't solve the line issues, so that's not optional, and really is irrelevant to addressing the QB posistion, as a seperate issue.
I still don’t think Miami will have a top 3 pick but I’m all about Chase Young, Creed Humphrey so far in round one. I’m not sure what I’m doing with the other 1st round pick yet but I’m leaning Jordan Love.
I'm guessing Miami will be taking closer looks at Herbert and others. Now if Fromm, Love and others Return to school for 2020, I could see Miami moving assets into 2021 for a possible scenario, where Miami plays better and is in need of a trading partner, in a potential trade up to select a QB. It's looking like there's a chance the expected great QB class of 2020 may be more like the great QB class of 2021.

Draft Tua and let him take 2020 to recover. Sign a vet free agent or stick with Fitz for next season.
Doubtful. Bet he has an insurance policy if he doesn’t get drafted in the first that would void if he stayed in school and didn’t return to form. Redshirting isn’t an option for him as who knows if Alabama would wait for him when they could bring in the next 5 star freshmen that would have 3 years with. He’d be an idiot not to come out this year. At worst he’s not making it past the 2nd round. If he stays and plays next year at Alabama and doesn’t perform he could be not drafted all together. You come out when you’re hot and even though he’s hurt, he’s still one of the best prospects to come out in years

I think Miami is third at the moment, behind the Bengals and Redskins. If the Bengals mess around and beat the Raiders the Dolphins could still be in the hunt.
How do you know they weren’t taking closer looks already? For all we know Tua may not have been their target. I do know our scouts have been to multiple college games to get close looks at different players.
No it's not. You can't draft the answer at QB if the guy's weaknesses will be exposed repeatedly on our team. Yes, all QB's will struggle when the line sucks. But the reason why Fitz is starting on this team and Rosen isn't is because Fitz struggle's less. The team is too afraid that a Rosen offense will be a non-starter on this team to even throw him out there to evaluate.
I'm not gonna act like NFL teams don't tend to draft who they perceive as the most talented without evaluating whether or not that player will have success in their system. The do. The things is, NFL teams can be pretty dumb. They miss on more QB's than they hit on. They draft guys like Jamarcus Russell and EJ Manuel highly.
Just a figure of speech on my part. Miami has been scouting players. I know they scouted Herbert a lot over the last 2 seasons.
Jalen Hurts doesn't have NFL caliber passing skills and the last few weeks should have made that plenty evident.
That will play in and its something that's hard to factor.
I understand, but everyone assumes they were locked in on Tua. Seems like they’ve been doing their homework, and looking at multiple prospects.
I doubt Tua's injury make it less likely for these fringe guys to come out. Not with Sunshine in next year's draft.
