Y’all do understand that the #1 pick goes to the team with the worst record unless it’s a traded pick? Very rarely is the #1 pick a good team that had a horrible season like the Colts in 98 and 2012. Some of y’all act like Tua was destined to go to the Patriots, or some other elite franchise.

I just hope one of the horrible teams gets talked out of taking Tua because of his "fragility" and he falls down to a team that is at least a well run organization or at least has been in the not so distant past.

Well y’all need to be the biggest Steelers and Texans fans from here on out because the higher in the nfl standings they are the less likely Miami has a shot other than #1 overall at Tua

I’m hoping that a decent team sees the value in him, trades to get first to pick him up.

OR perhaps the hapless Dolphins (or the Bengals) pick somebody else as #1 overall, which is what some have suggested.

NEVER! As a Cleveland Browns fan I HATE the Steelers.
As a Steelers fan... the only time I hate the Imposter Browns (1999- present) is years like this one in which everyone and their mother overhypes them up beyond belief, otherwise they arent much of a rival to me. Now the REAL Browns (Ravens) I hate 24/7


There are so many NFL teams tanking, Miami is not a guarantee to pick first.
Yeah but you get into just as bad picks like the Bengals. Tua is probably better off going outside of the Top 10

Bama has an unique problem. We have so many former players in the pro league it's almost impossible to keep track of them all. And good luck picking a favorite...

Bo Scarborough rushed for 98 yards for Detroit against Washington today. According to the Detroit Free Press, "How was Bo Scarbrough a free agent in mid-October? Scarbrough had another nice day running the ball. He finished 98 yards on 18 carries and repeatedly got yards after first contact. Scarbrough did lose a fumble in the first half, but I thought that play should have been blown dead with his progress stopped."

Minkah Fitzpatrick had a fumble recovery for Pittsburgh against Cincinnati and returned it from Pittsburgh's 6 to their 42.

Derrick Henry of the Tennessee Titans is one of the biggest running backs in the NFL. But that doesn't mean he's a plow horse.

In the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Henry raced 74 yards for a touchdown. The former Alabama All-American reached a top speed of 20.66 mph on the run, according to the NFL’s Next Gen Stats.
