      To me, it's not just the hip injury that scares me about Tua, it's the number of injuries he had. I sure hope they don't trade up to take him because I think he'll have injury problems in the NFL.

        Agree...that read was interesting and he healed fast but wait til he gets hit again and a 300 lb DL lands on him....or when Feeney gets shoved into him rolling up on his weak ankles.

          I heard how Tua was injured in the game against LSU, but he still (almost) matched Burrow td for td.

          Miami has to reckon that their Oline is craptastic. Their 2nd first round pick pushes them out of range of the top 4 OTs.

          I would stay put if i were Telesco: if Tua is gone, he has other great options.

          The fear is that the panicky Spanos push Telesco towards a bad decision.

            It's always interesting that people think that Spanos forces Telesco into doing things he really doesn't want to. How would anyone here know that TT doesn't absolutely love Tua? If not for the injuries, which clearly have to be a major factor in taking him or not, he might be the first pick in the draft.

              Dont recall if he was hurt but he didnt miss a snap.

              Tua 21-40, 418, 4-1 sacked 5 times
              Burrow 31-39, 393, 3-0 sacked 0 times

                I guess a big difference would be was Borrows line that much better than Tua's or was Tua doin a little too much runnin around?

                  There was talk awhile back involving the curious decision to pick Yung Ku over Josh Lambo, although Yung Ku did not make a field goal attempt in the preseason.
                  It was noted that there are 100,000 + Korean-Americans in the Los Angeles metro market.

                  Did TT want to spend 30 million a year to get Brady? Or was that Spanos suggesting to him that it would be very important for the organization to bring in a big name to boost attendance?

                  You're right. We will never know if TT wants to take the risk/reward that Tua presents by moving up.

                    I heard it from someone like Bucky Brooks on the radio.

                        so what if Burrows made a huge jump between this last season and the season before? Could it be that he actually blossomed talent-wise and cognitive-wise? maybe that's all it was...he put it all together. he sure did look much better than lawrence when it was head to head. sure lawrence may have the raw athletic talent but so did that nimwit that played for the titans years back...forgot his name...the guy who ran into Merriman and flopped and then got his coach to call dirty hits on Merriman. How many super athletes have bombed as QBs. I STILL cant believe the donks drafted tebow. and what if lawrence has peaked? it's ALL a crapshoot so you just gotta go by what was on tape and hope for the best...oh and bring in the right people to develop systems that work.

                          They haven't drafted a good quarterback since....well, never!
