hallelujah! i hope he is able to play again

 

[EasyTider]

GM easytider would sign him and include a clause that calls for $100,000 fine each time he (unnecessarily) absorbs contact instead of throwing the ball away.

Good for you Tua! Go get that Top 5 pick.

Get ur cash and life CAN be on easy street.
Don't know what some of us had to do for a college education
I believe we will be reading positive stuff on TUA for a lifetime

Poor Tua. It's like a dark cloud has hung over his football career from day one. Postponement of the draft will surely affect what happens with him going forward.

I think he benefits from it. The more time he has to heal, the less uncertainty as to his condition. Might be a silver lining.

He certainly won't be poor.

I agree. He is a better quarterback than Burrow and it continues to pain me to see Burrow #1, and then everyone else. I would like to think this extra time is giving Tua the opportunity to actually work out and throw before his Pro Day to clear out the cobwebs.

If he does go to Miami, I see a Marino type run if they build around him quickly.

Grading the NFL mock drafts: Just how wrong did all those experts get it?

We looked at 122 different mock drafts published since Monday and found that... well, no one really knew what was going to happen.

If Tua can stay healthy...
You might prove to be right....
But....its just not in his DNA .... ".....throw the ball away" is the most important thing the nfl team has to teach him.....

Good to see the kid getting back healthy. Just a great kid with a great spirit about him. Wish him all the success in the world.

That is amazing to be able to move like that considering the severity of that injury and it's timing.
So happy for him!

Saw an article this am that said Burrow drawing comparisons to Peyton. Geez... One good season after all those years in college. Let’s see a little more sample before we draw those comparisons. I’d much rather have Tua on my squad, 100% or even 75%.

He hasn't signed a footwear/apparel sponsorship yet. He's wearing Adidas clothes with Nike cleats.
