Peter King & Mike Florio

[Mr Fan]

They were discussing the possibility of the Dolphins taking a QB at #6, seems Florio believes this a significant possibility. I must admit the logic was reasonable even compared the Cowboys taking Walsh and Aikman in the same year with 1st round picks.

... nope. But good clickbait, though. Florio is definitely a master and its why he's made millions!

I highly doubt that. The 2023 1st rounder we got from SF is our QB insurance.

 

[Danny]

Ok, this will not happen and everybody should know that by now.

I would expect as much from these two

 

[bostondolphin]

Why trade down from #3? That makes no sense. You don't give up spots for such a key position.

I'm sorry...this is ridiculous.

The only thing Florio knows about football is how to trick people into visiting his website.

2023 will likely be the next time we seriously look at a QB. That would give Tua three years to develop and we would have 2 first rounders. If Tua doesn't pan out (Hope he does!) we would likely package and move up then.

Florio is good for some things. If a player gets into legal trouble, he is really good at breaking down the situation, what charges mean, what has to happen, because he was a lawyer.
He can also raise some good questions some times, and like anybody with smarts(He's no dummy) he will make good points from time to time.
But sometimes these talking heads like to go off on a topic just for the sake of discussion, which is fine, but they present their baseless speculation as "true possibility". I would be STUNNED beyond belief if we would take a QB at 6. The Jags and Jets would both have to pass on Lawrence, then I would think then Grier and Co would have a decision to make. And we know that's not happening.

Guys with too much space to fill overthinking something.

 

[jazzy_jamis]

Put the word out we are looking for a QB, forces someone to trade with ATL at 4, Pitts falls to us.....it's genius

The Dolphins are not taking a QB with the pick at 6. Perhaps they will take a QB in the seventh round and stash him on the practice squad if they think he might make a good backup in the future.

Obviously King and Florio are bored waiting for the draft to begin so they are just making things up to get clicks.

This could be why when trading back up they keep the longer first-round pick it would be smart to do it that way.

Like you, I certainly hope that they don’t have to draft a QB in 2023. That would either mean Tua doesn’t improve or he has an injury which ends his career. Yet I do agree that they are going to build around him over the next two years and see how that works out. I don’t see them even having any interest in a QB in the next two drafts unless Tua has a serious injury during the 2021 season.

I like how Peter King pretty much laughed at Florio for suggesting it.
