This isn't Dolphins directly but it does relate to possible QB selections this year. I know a lot of you don't check other forums here, like the Draft Forum, so I thought I'd post in here to give you a heads up.

Two of the better QB's likely to be in this year's draft are Joe Burrow and Jordan Love. Those two will face off today in LSU vs. Utah St.

If you want to see how two ascending QB's are doing, this might be one to watch.

They're on in the early slot.

Also a heads up, Ohio State vs Michigan State 7:30 PM on ABC. Our future First pick Chase Young plays against a conference rival.

also i dont think we will be able to see much of Jordan Love today... if he has any highlights then that would be impressive but overall, Utah State is completely outmatched in every way possible by LSU. LSU is shaped and built differently. Theyre stronger, bigger and faster.

jordan love has had a struggling year so far and wouldnt surprise me if he opts to stay for his senior year because his stock has dropped. He needs a really good year to be a second day pick.. right now hes looking at third day.

Interesting. I haven't watched Love myself but lately he's been said to have been improving with his stock rising. I posted some of that stuff in the ongoing QB thread in the Draft Forum.

If he does face stiff competition then isn't that exactly what we'd hope for in being able to evaluate him better? The knock on Tua etc is that tut competition faced is too weak.

Don’t know what happened in Baton Rouge in the off-season, but Burrow has looked like a different QB this season. He was very unimpressive last year, especially against quality opposition, the Alabama game especially.

Well. Left less impressed with Love. Weakness of his team aside his decision making left a lot to be desired. He wasn't horrendous but he made a few big mistakes.

Burrow had a few mistakes as well but looked better. I don't think I'd be upset if we ended up with him but Tua definitely still looks better at this point, I'd say Tua's accuracy in particular is incredible, above others, and his decision making this year has been excellent so far.

Yea Love looked exactly how i expected.. he also hasnt played very well after his first game.. it do him well to enter the transfer portal, go to a bigger program, and try to have success that way. Deriq King is doing that and wouldnt shock me if Alabama ends with King. Alabama knows how to make qbs look better than they really are and they love a dual threat.

Love’s team is completely outmatched, hes not in a power conference.
