No.

 

The draft is two days away.

 

Nope. No disrespect to Dak. He's had to put up with as much BS from Cowboys fans as Tua has from Dolfans. Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

 

...and we have three months before training camp. We haven't scratched the surface of thephins.com offseason insanity yet.

 

No

And I like Dak more than most.

 

I think they're in the same tier of quarterback so I'm going to vote no. It would be a lateral move for both franchises assuming the hypothetical trade was Dak for Tua straight up. I don't see Dak as a better fit either.

 

Dak is talking about securing a $60 million bag after this season. Not good context for the question you asked.

 

Anyone mention Dak is 30? He's not getting better while Tua still has room to improve. So No

 

No. Dak wouldn't be enough of an upgrade to make a difference.

 

I'd be a no.

 

While Dak has had to endure the never ending soap opera that is the Dallas Cowboys, he’s not demonstrated to me that he can win the big games needed.

Jones tends to stick with losing quarterbacks too long.

 

The best you are doing is ever so slightly upgrading but at the expense of a QB who is 5 years older so it wouldn't make much sense to me.

 

Even if I was open to trading Tua at this point, trading Tua for Dak would be a lateral move.

 

no

 

Not much of an upgrade (if at all), older, more expensive = no.

 

It interests me.

Call me crazy.

 

No and I like Dak a lot.

Tua is 5 years younger, he's still got a lot of growing to do.

 

:favre:
LOL

 

Just playing Devils Advocate…

If we were to trade Tua (and I don’t want to trade him), it would have to be for either an DEFINITIVE upgrade…or part of a rebuild in which we needed multiple draft picks for him.

 

As was mentioned above, Dak is 5-6 years older and about to sign a huge contract. I doubt anyone believes that Dak would come here and play any better than Tua has.
And if people were willing to give up that amount of draft pick, enough to fill a rebuild, we’d be crazy to do it. Franchise QB’s are hard to find.

 

Next year QB class is an iffy one as well.

I do think the Chargers can do the funniest thing ever though by trading Herbert for an astonishing amount of picks/players and then drafting JJ to play with Harbaugh. It won't happen, but I am rooting SO HARD for it. :chuckle:

 

Neither player shows up in big games, let's stay with Tua.

 

I didn’t mention Dakota because I don’t believe he is an upgrade, let alone a definitive upgrade as I previously stated.

 

Saying it interests me is not me saying I would actually do the trade. At first blush, it is interesting.

Not sure why people act like it's crazy to think it's interesting.

 

If they were the same age I think it would be. I don’t really think of Dak as a “choker”. His play is nearly identical in the postseason as it is in the regular season. He’s a very good QB and ai like him. However, due to his age and the contract he will command, I’d pass. Tua does some things better, Dak does some things better. I don’t know who McD would rather have, but if they were both the same age, and McD did this hypothetical trade, I wouldn’t be angry. I’d have more of a wait and see approach because I trust McD.

 

I was just what you said…

You said call me crazy :lol:

 

Oh, so because YOU don't find it interesting means NO ONE can? Like dude, you really think about what you're writing?

I mean, if McDaniel is this great coach and QB guy, why wouldn't the assumption be that he could have Dak playing better than he ever has?

I think it is an interesting conversation to have. Doesn't mean that at the end I would end up dumping Tua for Dak.

 

Oh yeah I know. I was referring to others who think it's crazy. I understand your posts haha

 

Both Tua and Dak have had more than enough time to prove themselves capable of winning playoff games and making it to the Superbowl.
Both have failed so it's time for both the Cowboys and Dolphins to draft QB (s) and give new players a chance to succeed.

 

:sidelol: :sidelol: :sidelol:

Whew thanks! I needed a good laugh. It’s been a rough day of work on a Saturday.

You could say Dak has had plenty of time, plenty of weapons and one of the better offensive lines in the league.

If you think you can HONESTLY and OBJECTIVELY say the same about Tua?

 

Tua has had significantly more weapons that Dak.

 

For all 4 seasons?

 

For the 2022 and 2023 seasons the Dolphins roster was loaded good, especially 2023. For 2024, with a significantly depleted roster, if Tua plays on his 5th year option I am expecting a 9-8 season and fans breathing a sigh of release the team did not extend him.

 

Then we sign Zach Wilson

 

What does Zach Wilson have to do with Tua's play?
