Tua Absent From Off-season Activities - Contract. Update: Tua Growing Impatient

[jetspenguin]

Where are all the media hot takes about Tua being a bad leader? Missing OTAs in June is pretty much like a late term abortion, no? 

Same as baby killing on Miami Beach.

But...its not the Jets so it's all good.

• ESPN’s Adam Schefter said the Dolphins “want to pay” Tua Tagovailoa, but at a “fair market value.”

   

  As Schefter pointed out on NFL Live, the market for quarterbacks has seen a massive shift in recent weeks, with Jared Goff and Trevor Lawrence recently signing massive deals. According to Schefter, the Dolphins and Tagovailoa are now left to figure out “what is the proper value for a quarterback of [Tagovailoa’s] abilities,’ which could leave him on the shorter end of some of the deals we’ve seen given to quarterbacks as of late. Tagovailoa led the league with 4,624 passing yards last season and added another 29 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. He’s currently set to play out 2024 on the fifth-year option that was picked up last offseason, but Schefter believes a deal will eventually get done between the two sides. If Tagovailoa wants a deal similar to those of Goff and Lawerence, it’s possible he’ll need to play out this final year and prove to the Dolphins’ front office he’s worth that kind of commitment.

1. Dolphins are 100% justified wanting a cheap-side deal for Tua, because the risk of missed time remains huge for him and is a season-killing kind of risk.

2. Tua should be taking it on the chin because he's holding out.  He is (I believe) under contract, he should be there.

3. When healthy, Tua is a very good, very productive QB so far in his career.  Not sure he's a title winner, but he certainly puts up top-end numbers.  So he has value if he can stay healthy.

4. The Dolphins and their fans have never seemingly been sold on Tua.  I know many here at JN thinks he "sucks".  

5. With all that said, a holdout for a contract/money issue is often treated differently.  By both players/coaches and even media at times.

6. Bad things for the Phins = Good things for us.  Lets hope the holdout continues.
