The Dolphins might not be overly concerned with Tua Tagovailoa‘s medical situation. Team doctors gave him a passing grade on his physical at the scouting combine, according to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald.

Presumably, Tagovailoa is even closer to 100% health today than he was in late February. In addition to his major hip injury, the southpaw suffered multiple high ankle sprains, a knee sprain and a broken wrist during his collegiate career. Predictably, Tagovailoa’s camp claims the medical concerns are overblown, though at least one team failed Tagovailoa on a physical earlier this year.
Over the last week, there’s been more and more talk of the Dolphins preferring Oregon’s Justin Herbert to Tagovailoa, but that could very well be a smokescreen. For months, Tagovailoa has been connected to the Dolphins, at the No. 5 spot or perhaps with a move up the board. Some evaluators are troubled by Tagovailoa’s issues, but the QB says he’s ready to rock.
“I feel 100 percent,” the Alabama quarterback said earlier this month. “I feel like if there was a game today, I’d be able to go out and perform the same way I was able to perform in previous years. I feel as mobile as possible. I feel 100 percent.”
As a sophomore, Tagovailoa threw for almost 4,000 yards and 43 touchdowns while lobbing just six interceptions. He finished that 2018 season as the runner-up for the Heisman trophy, just behind eventual No. 1 overall pick Kyler Murray.
Translation: we aren’t trading up.
If Miami was sincere about their rebuild, then you trade up and get your QB, whomever that may be. I think they’re too cheap and hoping one falls to them at 5. That’s what losing organizations do, hope.
If they stay at 5 I hope the top 3 QBs go before them
Ross has never been cheap with the Dolphins. He just hires questionable decision makers. He has always spent whenever asked by his gm and on the stadium as well.
Nor is Shad Kahn, Dan Synder, The Bidwells, Chargers family et al. But they all lose continually.
if they’re no cheap then why did you call them cheap?
Smokescreen. Tua isn’t even a real person.
You might be right. A real person would likely have a last name that fits on a jersey!
In feb lol months later know let’s see whose dumb enough to draft this injury prone over hyped clown
