Tua Tagovailoa Should Be Offended if Latest Dolphins-Joe Burrow Report is True

If the latest reports are indeed true, Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa being selected by the Miami Dolphins with the No. 5 overall pick might not be as much of a certainty as we all thought. The Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins are trying to trade up to No. 1 and take LSU quarterback Joe Burrow.

In addition to the Burrow buzz, Miami has been rumored to be high on Oregon quarterback Justin Herbert and has already scheduled a pre-draft visit with Utah State quarterback Jordan Love. What are the Dolphins doing?

Per @ArmandoSalguero "The Dolphins want to trade up to grab Joe Burrow with the first overall selection, if possible. They will make that attempt."

if I'm Tua, I'd be livid with the Dolphins as an organization.

The only way the Dolphins could back this up would have been some sketchy Tagovailoa medical reports. However, Tua appears to be ready to roll following his scary hip injury.

While Tagovailoa remains the most likely candidate to get picked up by Miami at No. 5, all this extra pontificating seems extremely unnecessary from Miami's point of view.

“The Dolphins want to trade up to grab Joe Burrow with the first overall selection, if possible. They will make that attempt.

But, failing that, they will decide between Tua Tagovailoa and Justin Herbert.” https://t.co/tA1BvVCPCB

The Dolphins fanbase wanted Tua when the season started, and now they're in a perfect position to take him considering Burrow to Cincinnati is essentially done and dusted. Dolphins fans might not get their wish if the organization continues to mess around with these trade rumors.
