Just google his name. Its more than his hip, the lad is labeled by some team doctors as being brittle.
The reward outweighs the risk.Not gonna lie, he’d be awfully tempting if he fell to 17. And I like Dak.
I think a player has to be declared dead for Dallas to fail them on the physical. Even then Jerry may still select them in the 2nd round. lol

I wonder what teams would even give him a physical? Wouldn’t it only be teams drafting early or in that top 25?
Thanks for that, Steetwise.
If a guy (a QB) who was being discussed as a #1 overall pick falls to you at 17 you gotta take him. Yes it's risky. But the payoff would be huge if it works out. Plus, it would give us immediate leverage with Dak.
I never found him to be the type of player that would be good in NFL. he is a great college QB, surrounded by some of the best talent in college (isn't that what Dak is accused of having). Alabama showed they succeed without him, which speaks to his talent. he is now injury prone and would probably be similar in the NFL unless he sits on the bench for a couple of years to heal and learn.Not gonna lie, he’d be awfully tempting if he fell to 17. And I like Dak.
Yeah and I could be confusing this with visits but I thought it was only a certain number of guys you can bring in?I'm pretty sure all teams would have him in (even as a diversion), foolish not too as you never know what will happen during the draft
Yeah if I can find a trade partner...that would be ideal. Some fans fell in love with Tua because of his name.....I never found him to be the type of player that would be good in NFL. he is a great college QB, surrounded by some of the best talent in college (isn't that what Dak is accused of having).

I wouldn't be enticed. I would actually look to trade down for a team that would be interested.
Thanks for that, Steetwise.
Tua's surgery was about 5 months ago. A serious injury by most accounts, but one that seemed to have a positive prognosis after the surgery. The bone and joint exam at the combine would likely determine a players ability to play now. I think the teams who have their sites on Tua, like possibly the Chargers, would love to sit him for a year, let him learn and fully heal.
this is the great opportunity to offer Dak, for example with the chargers, they need a QB, and you still have salary space, Dak + First round 2021 + Second round 2022, for Charger 6th overall pick, negotiate that 6th round for more picks For example, with the buccaneers, they need the best available tackle to protect Brady, the number 6 pick plus the second round pick, plus the fourth round pick, for the number 14 pick, with the number 14 pick selecting CJ Henderson and with the pick 17 select Xavier McKinney, if Tua falls much on the table, because he did not pass two medical exams, try to select him at the first opportunity, or select Jalen Hurts, then sign Cam Newton or James Winston for 1 year. and we are ready to rumble.

Exactly. This is the same team that drafted Bruce Carter, Sean Lee (although in the 2nd round) and LVE (1st). All 3 had medical red flags coming out of college but we still drafted them.I think a player has to be declared dead for Dallas to fail them on the physical. Even then Jerry may still select them in the 2nd round. lol
