The reason, or actually reasons, are because there’s a much better option in Burrow, and because Tua couldn’t even stay healthy at the college level. There’s no reason to believe he’s going to suddenly become a much more durable player in the NFL.

I disagree with that last sentence. There is every reason to believe he’ll get healthier in the nfl, namely the tightrope surgeries(elective surgeries btw, not needed). The ankles won’t be an issue anymore or shouldn’t be

Besides the Tua vs Joe debate, I’m not sure Epeneza is a good fit in a 3-4 hybrid. I think of him as a more traditional DE in 4-3, not a 3 technique in a 4-3 or an OLB in a 3-4. But, overall not bad. Your job as GM rides on Tua panning out.

With the moves we’ve made and what they’ve said, it seems to me we’re gonna go to a 4-3 hybrid. And I’m drafting epeneza at dt.
