Miami stays at #5, and someone (the Chargers, maybe) moves up to #3 and takes Tua?

1. Burrow
2. Young
3. Tua
4. Giants go OL
5. ???

I’m leaning towards Isaiah Simmons. Dude is a beast, covers the whole field. Top corner in Okudah would be option #2.

Try to trade down or we take Herbert or Love, whichever you have rated higher. Not getting a QB here is, frankly, not acceptable.

I dont get the argument of "needing a qb" why grab a QB because its a need? Why not go for the best talent available? Finding a franchise QB is really hard thing to do, and frankly alot of teams fail and waste alot of good years developing one OR failing to do so. Dolphins should approach and not reach or panick because its a "need". Fix the holes first and let a QB fall to you... Im pretty sure theres atleast one good QB that goes late in this draft and will get overlooked by alot of teams. Look at the Chiefs, they moved down just to grab Mahomes. And there was atleast 11 teams that passed on him.

Seems that you answered your question.

Also, while Tua is the hot thing atm, both Herbert and Love are legit first round talents. I'd probably prefer Love myself, Herbert has the physical attributes but I am not sure he will put it together. But the point is, take the guy, see if he works, if not try again with one of your picks next year. Try until you have your guy.

A high-end QB is always worth more than a high end anything else.

Absolutely not trade down, unless it's only a couple picks.

In your scenario, there are five legitimate blue-chip prospects on the board.

Isaiah Simmons, S/LB
Jerry Jeudy, WR
Jeffrey Okudah, CB
Derrick Brown, DT
Andrew Thomas, OT*, if this isn't NYG's pick

Passing on any of these five to trade outside of the top ten would haunt this franchise.

simmons or okudah if trades don't exist, maybe even so if trades exist.

And you havent been remotely relevant since then, until you finally had a guy play like one this year.

I dont know how that isnt obvious, it's like a big flashing neon sign.

VY sucked. Fisher was trash but he isnt the reason why VY couldnt complete passes or be accurate.

I blame the front office with their horrible selections throughout years. Flopped on Jake Locker, Vince Young and now Marcus Mariota. GM could do wonders. Hiring Jon Robinson is probably the smartest move that the Titans has ever done. Its been a complete turnaround since he took over in '16. Two back to back winning seasons, followed by an AFC title game.

Hopefully Detroit will take Tua at 3 then we can concentrate on OL or DL. Then go QB with one of our other first round picks.

Herbert at #5 makes a ton of sense IMO.

I have said it before and I will say it again. We should take LOVE at 5 if Tua isn't available. That way he can sit a season and learn behind Fitzpatrick. I would like to add a caveat to this. If we learn during team interviews etc. that LOVE doesn't have quick processing power then I don't want him or any other QB. Tua has had great success behind a great OL at Alabama. While that may be a benefit for him he still has to run the show and he did that very well. He would be my first choice at QB if Burrow is gone.

Leadership isn't getting people to line up behind you; it is getting them to join you.

Sometimes the journey is as important as the destination.

The little things matter. Winning starts by not beating ourselves.

I’d Literally drive to Florida and punch Grier in the mouth! We have way to many holes to fill and void of talent we take the best player in the board and build. Also if that happens this franchise is clearly doomed!

also I’m worried about the pats trying to move up to grab a QB and hurt us
