Taking your statement above why not draft Tau and let the best man win at the most important position in football. You could "see" both at the same time.

Problem is you really can't have QBs "compete" for the job anymore with such limited (possibly soon to be even more limited) practice time. Splitting reps in practice ends up hurting both guys as you're not giving them enough snaps to really develop. And then a natural divide develops in the locker room depending on who guys get behind and support. And then the constant questioning Rivera and the players would deal with all offseason. I really don't think RR wants to go down that road.

Yup, for below market value because the trade is forced. Thus setting your team back even further.

Makes sense.

This is a good point about the practice reps. Dwayne had virtually no practice reps with the first team when he had to be inserted into the lineup and he struggled hugely for the first few games. Once he settled in, he performed well. I think a lot of folks are overlooking that when they claim that Haskins is a bust.

Drafting Tua means passing on a (supposed) generational talent in Chase Young.

Tua's injury history makes the decision a little easier for me. But let's pretend Tua will never be hurt again .... I still say Chase Young is a better value.

Man, didn't take long for people to fall into the Tua trap huh?

I'm now more paranoid about Tua than catching the Coronavirus lol.

Tua is not coming to this team. If Haskins really busts this season, with all the improvements to the OL, TE, WR then we’ll draft for a QB with our first draft pick in 2021.

I wonder how much this regime likes the front 7 enough to make a deal?

AnonEmouse · 03-19-2020, 09:30 AM

I'd like the front 7 better with CY. We don't have an out and out LE pass rusher as it stands, and he would give us that plus the increased capability to swap personnel all across the DL for situational need.

And I suspect we've only kept RK so far in case we don't/can't draft CY. He could be waive/trade bait post draft if we do, or CY leverages us to renegotiate his contract.

If we draft QB or trade down then it puts RK in a good position with his current contract, else we weaken the front 7 if we let him go.

Cowturd also had Brady going to about six different teams over the past few months and also retiring. He has zero credibility.
