[swordsandtequila]

Pro. Get Paid. Rehab on their dime. Easy peasy. Next topic.

[daneblazer]

He gone

[kidcudi92]

Probably playing soccer in Russia

I’ve been thinking of going there

Thoughts?

[homie1975]

would be foolish to come back unless he gets a huge insurance policy. both ankles were operated on last two years.

now the hip.

get healthy and leave. do not risk another injury

[Sam Odom]

would not sign him... Sam Bradford II

[MinnesotaFats]

Can't risk returning

Think Leinart tried this....lost $$$

He might make more $ tax free in 1 yr at Bama though.

True leinart was projected #1 if he left after 04 season but he came back to try and 3 peat. He dropped to 10th after 05 season. It wasn't due to injury though.

Tua should leave because if he gets injured in college again he is literally through. The pros will be scared to death to pick him.

[BadNina]

It will depend on the 6 week post surgical MRI scan. That is when they will be checking for any signs of AVN, although that might not show them. It should within 3-6 months post surgery. The odds of that area low considering they were able to reduce the fracture immediately at the stadium.

Ha ha, good point.

[cincinnatikid513]

tough choice

what if he drops 3rd 4th round cant see a team spending a 1st round pick w his ankle issues and now hip hes gonna be the next bradford

[unluckysob]

Wonder how much his insurance policy is for? Who pays for that? Bama?

[stevek173]

I think he will die in the off season and do neither.

[pologq]

i would leave. no need to risk more injury in college.

[Big Bear]

lifelong Panther fan here

I think he will be available for us to take but I’m just not sold on him

is there a single lefty QB in the NFL?

there must be a reason why there are no lefties

the only left handed QB i can remember was Steve Young and then Mike Vick but Vick wasn’t very good, just a runner

[BigdaddyQH]

He is very injury prone and certainly not 1st round draft material. That does not exclude him from being picked by some stupid G.M. but I would not touch him.

Will Tua go pro or return to Bama??


I think he will become sbr pro next year

[Goat Milk]

Teams so obsessed with number 1 picks. If I were someone like the Bengals, I would just trade my number 1 pick and the my 2nd round pick and some other players and trade for a QB like a Mayfield.

Let's take a look at the last 15 or so number 1 picks.

2018	Baker Mayfield	QB	Oklahoma	Cleveland Browns	1	0
2017	Myles Garrett	DE	Texas A&M	Cleveland Browns	2	1
2016	Jared Goff	QB	California	Los Angeles Rams	3	2
2015	Jameis Winston	QB	Florida St.	Tampa Bay Buccaneers	4	1
2014	Jadeveon Clowney	DE	South Carolina	Houston Texans	5	3
2013	Eric Fisher	OT	Central Michigan	Kansas City Chiefs	6	1
2012	Andrew Luck	QB	Stanford	Indianapolis Colts	6	4
2011	Cam Newton	QB	Auburn	Carolina Panthers	8	3
2010	Sam Bradford	QB	Oklahoma	St. Louis Rams	9	0
2009	Matthew Stafford	QB	Georgia	Detroit Lions	10	1
2008	Jake Long	OT	Michigan	Miami Dolphins	10	4
2007	JaMarcus Russell	QB	LSU	Oakland Raiders	3	0
2006	Mario Williams	DE	N. Carolina State	Houston Texans	11	4
2005	Alex Smith

Andrew Luck is the only superstar on the list and his career didn't go as planned. The second best player there is Matt Stafford who has led medicore teams his whole career.

So you ask, why would I trade the number 1 pick for Mayfield? It's because he already got 2 subpar years out of the way in Cleveland. We don't have to wait for him to develop and develop and develop. While the supporting cast around us goes to waste. Some GMs don't seem to realize how short the career lifespan of an NFL player is.

Look at AJ Green. Just waited and waited for Dalton to develop and it never happened. You wasted the career of one of the most explosive WRs of this generation.

Chargers traded Drew Brees. If they kept Brees, they would have won a minimum of 2 rings. Brees was older and much better than Phillip Rivers. Instead, they wasted Tomlinson and Gates and Junior Seau and all these studs so they could "develop Rivers."

And look what happened.

Tribusky?

That defense will go to waste because of Chicago's stupidity.

Never draft a QB as a high pick when the rest of your team is built to contend.

Look at New England.

Went after Brady in the 6th round.

Fwiw, Chargers didn't trade Brees. His last season in SD he hurt his shoulder in the last game (required surgery). SD offered him an incentive heavy contract, he declined. He signed with New Orleans as a free agent.

I reckon hell make the leap, no good waiting another year he's got nothing left to prove. Their will be a team in the first round that will take a shot on him regardless of the injury.

[5918mike]

I think he leaves, drops a bit to a better team, sits longer, less pressure to start right away. If he's good enough it will probably be better long term for him. No way would I risk coming back to college.

[jjgold]

He is a nobody, does not have NFL tool nor durability

[billyloco]

I agree w/Swords!!

[hostile takeover]

Why would someone draft him in the first place?

[homie1975]

we will know on monday. i think he goes NFL, at least i think he should

[2daBank]

He would be retarded to go back to school and risk more injury. Even if he went back and was great Lawrence still gonna be the top pick next year. Plus he be better off in long run dropping a little in this draft and not ended up on some shit bag team.
