I’m not.

I just think it’s silly how early people here are giving up on him.

And I think it has to do with Alabama more than Tua.

Of course

This guy thought LSU would be good this year. He also thought they didn’t have massive problems.

He was oblivious to LSU being a dumpster fire.

But LSU is a dumpster fire.

And the miami dolphins might have drafted the wrong QB.

LSU fans are ****s.


This is a melt

I agree that it's too early to give up on Tua. But I don't think the criticisms of him have to do with him being from Alabama, aside from some LSU fans on this board who may be rooting for him to fail.

I think it has more to do with the fact that we've seen 4 rookie QB's play significant snaps this year with Burrow/Herbert/Hurts showing franchise QB potential. All the while, Tua hasn't even really shown any flashes of high upside potential.

Bama bias aside, that is concerning. Add in the valid point that he was throwing to Devonta Smith/Jerry Jeudy/Henry Ruggs/Jaylen Waddle while an NFL O-line blocked for him and it's easy to speculate that his deficiencies could have been easily masked in college in a way that cannot be done in the NFL (Not saying that is the case, just that it isn't a crazy notion).

I’ve always said he won’t be as good as a pro as he did at Bama...... but the Dolphins don’t need to draft a QB until late or not at all.....

Any QB taken with a top 5 pick is going to be put under a microscope, especially when other top picks in the same draft (Herbert, Burrow) do very well out of the gate.

Same thing happened to Darnold, Trubisky, Sanchez, Jamarcus, Leaf, etc.
