[quote=rocnrik;1245973]What happens if bengals take Tua ... there would be a a mad rush to get burrow.. if that were to happen we could end up with 3 number one picks offered to us..[/quote]

All this shit is marketing. Every damn year there is the next two great QBs.

Burrows is nothing great he is just the best they have this year to build up as the Golden Child.

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???
 

Here is a question to answer.

We have the second pick and Burrows goes #1. With the second pick would you pick Chase, Tau or Haskins (hypothetically here that he came out in this draft)?

If Tua still has that injury concern, Chase Young. If he was completely healthy then Tua

so you wouldn't even take Haskins

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???
 

Id take Tua first (since I dont have a QB), Chase second and I woudlnt take Haskins with the 2nd overall pick. Certainly not in this draft where it seems there are 5-6 really blue chip prospects.

Im not a Haskins hater, I like him but I just dont see an elite franchise QB. Foot work, arm slot, mechanics, feel need work. maybe 10-15 best in the league in a few years and you can work with that. Still way to early to judge Haskins and we will find out a lot this year.

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???
 

Right now if you asked me who was the better prospect Haskins or Hurts? I'd probably say Hurts, similar accuracy traits and arm strength but Hurts can move much better, he's going to be a steal this yr

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???
 

[quote=mredskins;1245986]so you wouldn't even take Haskins[/quote]

Wow, I totally misread that somehow.

Tua, then Dwayne, then Chase if they are all in the same draft just because you need the QB

He only just had one of the greatest, if not the greatest season in college football history.

No biggie.

I'm surprised no one is talking about Carolina trading up to try and get Burrow to pair him back with his LSU passing coordinator. Maybe they don't have the resources to do so...but if I were a fan, that is what I'd be hoping for vs. hoping Cam is "healthy"

Doesn't always translate to the NFL but time will tell.

Still you got admit every year its two great QBs coming out hype and then fizzle.

Lamar and Patrick are probably the two best in the last five years to come out neither was part of this pre-draft circle jerk hype machine before each of their respective drafts.

Maybe I am old now but the NFL on so many levels is just wash rinse repeat year and year out. I actually enjoy amateur sports now more.

What was so impressive is his wins against extremely quality opponents and defenses. Also, he played in an NFL style offense.

This is the schedule he dominated:

@Texas
Florida
Auburn
@Alabama - rewatch that game. my god the poise.
Georgia
neutral field Oklahoma
neutral field Clemson

Who didn't he play in college football this year?


What is true about Tua this past season...everytime he played...everytime...the announcers always talked about how much he hobbled around the field...always talking about how injured Tua was. The writing is on the wall...completely negligent to take him at 2

If you look at the list of college QBs that put up huge numbers there are plenty of guys that never made it in the NFL or low end starters/backups like Case Keenum.
