Tua Tagovailoa Trade from Dolphins to Washington in Talks: NFL Sources (https://www.si.com/nfl/washingtonfootball/news/tua-tagovailoa-trade-miami-dolphins-washington-football-team-talks-nfl-sources-deshaun-watson)

Per JP Finlay, it's not true.. And I hope he is right as I don't see Tua being a franchise QB..

Tua is young, has some talent and my big concern are injuries, but I’m not opposed to giving him a shot as long as we aren’t moving a lot of assets for him

Unless as a staff you really love Tua and think he's the future, why bother? At this rate we're heading towards a top 5-10 pick anyway. Wait until the offseason and target someone you really believe in.

I think this Washington interest in Tua is somebody's camp trying to affect whatever dealings are happening between Houston and Miami.

Pass.

It's normal for multiple teams to be named as involved in a transaction like this. It's meant to drive up the price tag. I tend to believe JP, because as MTK said, it doesn't make a lot of sense at this point.

If they are going to make a move prior to the trade deadline, they ought to look at what they can do to improve that God awful D.

Anyway, the fact that this doesn't make sense scares me, because that is exactly the type of move I expect this organization to make.

Excellent point by Andrew Brandt. As much as I would want Watson, the baggage he's bringing would be pretty insane.

@AndrewBrandt
I cannot believe an NFL owner, in this current climate especially, would bring in Deshaun Watson and face his fan base with the lawsuits circling that player.
No matter how "good" a trade deal they could get.

I agree with that if we were any other franchise.

Bringing Watson here be equal to lighting a match during a bon fire; we are all ready a burning pile of dog shit what is one more flame. At least it give us more to talk about.

QB is a mission this off-season. I really think he wants a proven vet. Matt Ryan is my guess
