Beerfish Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 You heard it here 1st folks! We will finally trade down, after the top 3 ots are off the board. If I recall the Ravens under Newsome moved around i the draft a lot historically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetstream23 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Is he going to make his announcement on Monday about whether he's returning to Alabama? I think there's a slightly better than 50% chance he goes back to school. Saban is convincing guys such as OT Alex Leatherwood to return to school even though they'd be a 1st round pick. This could quickly turn into just a Burrow and Herbert QB draft....with guys like Fromm and Hurts being risky consolation prizes (ex. 2nd round....Geno Smith, Christian Hackenberg territory of the Draft). If Tua doesn't enter the Draft then I think Herbert gets pushed into the Top 11....and that's a positive for the Jets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the event he comes out- he will go to Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had a series of injuries the latest one being very serious. Do you risk the 5th pick in the draft on a big ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back is the single dumbest thing he could do. he wont start next year he'd be competing against Trevor Lawrence in 2021 for Draft stock (and he'll lose) any reinjury/complications = no NFL career/paycheck There 0% to gain from sticking around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me be clear. Many are saying he is returning to Alabama to rehab - not play. Obviously playing for Alabama next year would do nothing but risk his future. Odds are he’s not ready to play next year anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I'm hearing he's listening to where his draft position might possibly be plus monitoring his own rehab. He WON'T be a participant at the combine if he did indeed come out so that would effect his draft stock. If he did declare he'd be IMO the ultimate crap shoot for any team drafting him. 50-50 he stays at Bama and prays he stays healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why the hell would stay in college and rehab for no guaranteed money when he can do that in the NFL? Makes no sense. Right now he’s still easily the 2nd best prospect at his position and will go round 1 - regardless of the fact he’s not playing a down in 2020. That’s ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like I’m breaking this story my friend. You haven’t heard this this week? So I can’t answer your question. My guess would be to further his education rehab and prove he’s worthy of a top 5 pick. Something he now will not be this year. I responded to the op my opinion that no way in hell he goes 11 this year- nor should he. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don’t you pick out another completely mediocre free agent you want- then you can change your looser name( see how I slipped that in) - and post under that name next year. ? Clown!

PepPep Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I don't know about Tua but I'll tell you this much, I DO think there is a very good chance Miami passes on a QB at 5 and LAC pass on a QB at 6, leaving the #2 QB on the board at 11, making a trade down scenario very much possible. I've suggested in a separate thread that the Broncos may want to move up for a QB as they are selecting behind the Colts. Who knows. Trades are so hard to predict. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they liked what they saw from Lock this year, at least enough to not take one high in 2020. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero chance the broncos take a QB in round 1 and I also think there is zero chance Tua goes back to school. If he were to play and get another injury he could become a mid round pick, plus who is going to give him "draft insurance" at this point? Teams like he chargers could be looking to move up, but I think a big piece could be how the pre-draft goes for Jacob Eason who is slotted as a second round pick, but to me seems like a better prospect then Herbert. If he winds up in the top part of the first, it would give the Jets another opportunity to trade down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
