Should the Saints draft Tua if he slides?

  1. Yes. Tua is worth the late first rounder.

  2. No on Glass Joe... er... Tua.

    The Steelers might need somebody right away. I think Roethslisberger will retire.

    I would rather pay Teddy B start8er money than take the chance that Tua will ever be as good a pro QB as Teddy. Still, while TB has become a local hero who will never have to pay for another drink in NOLA I don't think he will ever be close to Brees level. The defense rose to elite level during that magical 5 game run.

    Do you think the Bengal would take Teddy, Andrus Peat and some picks for the #1 pick? I really want to see the Joe Burrow in black and gold.

    It would require a Ricky Williams level trade... probably every pick plus next years #1.

    No trade should ever reach that level of stupidity. But in this case, no way of knowing what Cincy would be demanding, but if you're assuming they will go QB, an opening offer that includes a proven QB is a good start.

    We should deal him and try and get a draft pick IMO.

    That would be awesome, but unfortunately like loco said, the cost would be too high.

    I think we will be going offensive line in the first round, or corner back. Especially if we just have 1 more year of Drew after. TBH I rather ensure the offensive line for years, then maybe get a QB the year after. And maybe Teddy takes a back loaded contract and waits another year, but I doubt it. I think he is going to test the market and get a starting job next year and a big paycheck.

    This thread will be rife with what ifs if Tua is passed on and is great as a Pro...

    Even if Tua recovers and returns, his durability will always be in question.
