WTF?
I never said he was a bust, and if he was why would it be frustrating for me?

Todd McShay on @dpshow:
“I would take Tua over Joe Burrow if there were no medical concerns.”
Compared him to Drew Brees.

Tua has way too many injury issues. My fear is that the Bengals will see Tua as a "bargain" if he drops due to those issues.
I have seen multiple scouts say that Tua is just as good as Burrow. I have watched them both and I believe it. But there is no way in hell I want the Bengals to draft Tua.

Fun to point out, PFF graded Burrows season the greatest season ever played since they started grading college football about 5-6 years ago. That is better than any single season Tua or Lawrence put together.I had Murray as a top 15 player in that draft. He was always great as a talent.
Also, Can we revoke Jpoore's ability to make more Burrow threads? This is getting kind of ridiculous, and seriously starting to feel like his Kylar Murray take where he tried to speak him being bad into existence.

1.) Burrow just had the greatest season any college QB has ever had.
2.) Burrow and Tua strengths and Weaknesses are nearly the same. When both are healthy.
3.) Burrow is also the bigger of the two.
It would be somewhat close but Burrow would be ahead.

You went so far to bet me he wouldn’t be, and you lost. Reason why doesn’t even matter, when everything in the world was saying your assessment was wrong you just kept banging the drum. You get laser focused on your guy and just try to talk them being good into existence like Nassir Adderaly last year.

Quote:ARM STRENGTH
This is the one trait that will get picked apart by evaluators all spring. Tagovailoa’s arm strength is on the low end for NFL standards and can only get worse with his hip injury robbing him of some torque in his lower half. He’s had one pass his entire college career travel 50-plus yards downfield. That throw, shown below, was an interception against LSU in 2018 and looked as if it was everything Tagovailoa had in the tank.
From release to landing spot is still comfortably under 60 yards on that throw. There are quarterbacks with weaker arms starting in the league, but we’d be lying if we said it wasn’t a concern.
Quote:CONS: [Delivery features a slight hitch. Base will occasionally narrow and impact his release point. Has some intermittent issues staying on top of the ball on quick outs. Missed some coverage rotations vs Georgia and Clemson late in 2018 that led to costly turnovers. On a few instances (enough to note), it appeared that he didn’t read the same leverage as his receiver on some deep shots. Arm strength is good enough but he doesn’t have a cannon. Injury history is concerning.
Quote:Arm Strength - Does he have elite strength? No. Is his arm strength a problem? Definitely not. He's got plenty of juice from within the pocket and generates desirable heat on the ball when he gets down hill to throw on the run. Has ability to squeeze tight throws in tight windows with zip but more so because he's so accurate.

Burrow played great against great Defenses.
That is pretty decent lol
As others said, Burrow still had a better game than Tua did as you avoided the stats that prove these stats false.
Also, last I heard Bama had a better Defense last year than LSU. So Burrow did it against the better Defense.
Just makes my point honestly.

Notice what I said though...he hadn't played fantastic against A LOT of great competition to that point.
He played great against Florida and Alabama before Tua went down.
That's only two.
I wasn't as on-board with Burrow at that point as I am now. I needed to see more to convince me. Luckily, his performances through the rest of the year helped with that.
Meanwhile, Tua was playing very well in 2019 after coming off a stellar 2018 and winning the National Championship in 2017.
I felt Tua was a safer prospect to project than Burrow by Nov 16, 2019.
