The San Francisco 49ers traded up to the No.3 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on Friday as they explore potential trade options for Jimmy Garoppolo. Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins traded back to the No. 6 pick after swapping draft slots with the 49ers despite having Tua Tagovailoa behind center.
I’ve been watching the Dolphins for over 40 yrs and have been a super fan .. watching Tua play made my eyes hurt..Not only did he look out of his element..but also looked uncomfortable.. here’s my take on why..At Alabama..Tua threw to 3 First round draft picks.. those guys were open by 3 to 8 yards every time he dropped back..he got spoiled..he didn’t adjust to the fact that if your receiver has a foot on the defender..he’s open..also he has to learn to trust his recievers..he didn’t do that and I wonder if anybody pointed that out to him.. with all this being said I’m all for watching Tua play and seeing if he gets it.. but I will tell you this much..I would have taken justin herbert..why you ask.. because this kid didn’t have the talented recivers Tua did ..and he still lit it up..and look at his rookie season..so we’ll see if he bouncers back..or still looks lost!!!
