However Tua (who is a better prospect when healthy)


yeah umm....no

people are HOPING that Tua is the next Russell Wilson, but its a reach. Tua has always had the best Oline and WR corp combo in all of college football. I am skeptical.

At least this year, i cant really see a flaw in Burrow's game. He looks to transition to a pass first offense in the NFL very well.

I would be surprised if he's not a top 10 QB in the league in 4-5 years if he at least goes to a decent team

So the flaw with Tua is a good supporting cast, but you don't see a flaw in Burrow's game after a 10 game stretch with...a good supporting cast. About sum it up or am I missing something?

He's thrown 87 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in his college career on 684 attempts with a 199.4 QBR

Burrow- 56 touchdowns with 11 interceptions on 759 attempts. 165.4 QBR

You can admit that he's really good. Nobody will revoke your LSU fan card or take anything away from Burrow's fantastic achievements this season. There have been a lot of quarterbacks with a brilliant supporting cast that didn't approach Tua's efficiency. Sammy Watkins and Deandre Hopkins used to play together after all.

I guess you’re right.

I don’t understand how he started against LSU, but was a game time decision against miss state...

But you can still have him.

He’s damaged goods.

I’ll take him as an UFA.
Or maybe take a shot at him in the 7th round.

It would be an excellent move for your Falcons to take him in the first round.

Go for it.

Judging by your post history, can you show me on the doll where LSU touched you?

I think Burrow and Tua are equal.

However Burrow will probably go first and Tua might be available at 10

Saints can’t develop rookie QB’s. We’ll find a young FA. Use the 1st for O-line or WR2

As a resident Bama fan i’d be extremely happy if fell to us in a reasonable position but don’t waste a 2nd round pick on an unknown health liability. I’m telling y’all that if he can overcome and heal then fully healthy he could be a very good QB in the NFL. I’m not blaming LSU fans on here for being skeptical but at full health Tua is amazing and can throw the prettiest ball that you’ve ever seen. He has to work on working through reads and not picking his presnap receiver instinctively.
