Jetsfan80 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 https://www.nfl.com/news/brian-flores-confirms-dolphins-fielding-trade-calls-for-qb-josh-rosen Brian Flores confirms Dolphins fielding trade calls for QB Josh Rosen Published: Sep 04, 2020 at 10:03 AM Kevin Patra Around the NFL Writer Josh Rosen might be on the move once again. Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores confirmed that general manager Chris Grier has been fielding calls about potential trades for Rosen, as well as other players, per Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post. Rosen is the odd man out in Miami with Ryan Fitzpatrick expected to start the season and first-round pick Tua Tagovailoa the future in South Beach. With all the starting quarterback gigs currently accounted for around the league, a team would be looking to add a signal-caller like Rosen as a backup insurance with potential upside. Any team that views the former UCLA product as a long-term answer would be relying on its pre-draft evaluation of Rosen. His play in the NFL has been sub-par through two years. After being selected with the No. 10 overall pick by the Arizona Cardinals in 2018, Rosen started 13 games, struggling behind a faltering offensive line. When the Cards reversed gears, making Kyler Murray the No. 1 pick last year, Arizona traded Rosen to Miami during the 2019 draft for a second-round pick and a 2020 fifth-round selection. In Miami, Rosen fared little better behind a similarly disastrous offensive line. After initially getting beaten out by Fitzpatrick, Rosen made three starts from Weeks 3-6 last year. He did not play well, throwing for 465 total passing yards with three INTs and one TD, and was sacked 12 times before being benched. He didn't throw a pass again, as FitzMagic played the rest of the season. Coming out of UCLA, Rosen was a polarizing prospect. He owns a good arm and flashes of talent. Those splashes, however, were too few and far between in his 16 pro starts. The signal-caller displayed disastrous pocket presence last year, struggled under pressure and made too many poor reads. To be fair to Rosen, neither situation in Arizona nor Miami was conducive to positive growth. Perhaps another new start can give the backup quarterback a shot at proving he belongs. The price-tag for a team to take a look shouldn't be prohibitive, neither is his rookie contract. With cut-down day looming on Saturday, we'll see if the Dolphins get an offer worth taking for their third QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post T0mShane Posted September 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2020 I wonder how long these NFL media puff pieces will keep getting puked out about how Flores and the Dolphins are such a smart, savvy team now that their QB of the future is Ryan Fitzpatrick for the past two years. 3 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I can't quite connect the QB I saw in the UCLA - A&M game with the one we've seen in the NFL. Was ARI so much worse of a situation in 2018 than it was last year for Murray? I liked the moxie Rosen showed in that one particular game, which is the only one of his I saw in its entirety. I'd like to see him figure things out and become a viable starter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Bradford started the first 3 games and threw for 400 yards, 2 TDs. 4 INT's and had a QBR of 62.5. I'm not a fan of Bradford but he doesn't suck that much. It was a very bad situation to be thrown into. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you don't. You just think you do. The one thing about being a fan of a really crappy team is when I watch the playoffs without a rooting interest watching two good teams battle I'm always amazed how much I enjoy really good competitive games. It's a great game when it's played at a high level by two really good teams. A competition is fun to watch when it's competitive at a high level.

"Good games" involving the Jets are stressful. Nothing is more fun that watching the Jets kick the sh*t out of someone. 41-0 over the Colts was the most fun I've had at a Jets game as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I never liked Rosen, and this development does not surprise me at all. Lack of mobility and a soft noggin is never a good combo for a QB. I don’t care where he goes, he’ll probably suck there, too. He has over $5M guaranteed coming to him, still. If Miami wants to get out from that contract, they’ll probably have to give someone a pick to take him off their hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenbloodblitz Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I would gladly go with Darnold, Rosen, White and Morgan. Rosen is a really smart dude and would challenge Sam. Sayonara to Flacco and Fales. Talk about Deadwood, I'd at least like some guys that have an opportunity to grow. I would take this guy in an instant for a conditional 7th to a 5th. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutal. Speaking of puking, sometimes people need to be reminded that the Dolphins are the true pukes of the AFCE. It took the Cheats a while to become neck and neck, and now because of the Cheats' Legacy of Cheating, that's the only reason that they finally and narrowly edged them out. The Cheats, I'll tell you what, though. Even though Tom Brady has left the building, Bernard Pollard For President in 2020. I know, no politics, but it had to be said. ^By the way, that was never my avatar from September 8th, 2008 until the end of the 2008 season, nope not me. That was some feller by the name of Arbogast. ? Anyway, to be clear, it's not remotely the same thing as wishing an injury on someone. I don't do that, even with a cheating sh*tbag like Brady . . . Bernard Pollard for President in 2020! I must be Britney Spears, because Oops I Did It Again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Blast Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I believe a large contributing factor to a QB making it or not making it in the NFL is the circumstance that he falls into. A really talented and driven player may be able to overcome circumstantial misfortune, while a mediocre or less talented QB may not. Conversely, a less talented QB may be put into a great situation and become a franchise QB. In this regard, I think the NFL football gods have not been kind to Josh Rosen. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most fun games I watched was the Pittsburgh playoff game we eventually lost. It was stressful, edge of your seat crazy. That was 2005. Granted I wanted to call Dr. Kovorkian after we lost. I also loved the win over the Pats in 2010. Coincidentally I have a partner in Boston and went to the Jets/Pats regular season game in 2010. We lost 45 to 3. It wasn't fun. I love sports for the competitive drama. I love practically puking at ever turn and thinking I can't watch this anymore. King Kong one minute, zippy the chimp the next minute. It's like a roller coster. Blowouts are the easy way out. A win that you practically have to call your cardiologist during the game, that's entertainment. I love the drama of the best going at it and not knowing the outcome until the final whistle. Granted if we actually have a great team and blow teams out because we're unbelievably good, I'm all in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
