Tua signed a 4 year deal worth 30.2 million with a 19.5 million signing bonus. I really hope the dolphins get their money's worth because that will mean Tua done well.
Tua's Contract
- Thread starter Tider n LA
- Start date
He definitely made the right move by going pro this year. There were still several doubts and questions about his ability to recover when he declared he was going pro. I'm so glad it worked out for him.
Let's hope he is as smart as we think he is. If so, he is set for life.
And he may well have made more than that already via his endorsement deals.
Agreed - going in the top 5 makes it a slam dunk right decision. Even if the worst happens and he never plays a down, he is set for life.
I think he has an AWESOME personality that advertisers will love. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I'd be shocked if Tua "wasted" this opportunity, especially with his family influence.
Now, I just hope he validates the money and has a successful career. IF he can make it to a second contract, he will sign another HUGE contract.
I received a bonus from Hibbett Sports a few times for meeting certain monthly sales goals. It wasn't close to Tua's bonus to sign with the Dolphins though. Man if I had more athletic ability.
He is 100 percent healthy. No reason for Miami to sit him.
As long as they have a decent OL, then go for it. But if their line is as porous as wet TP, then it would behoove him to sit a year and not take a pounding.
On the other hand, if there is no college football this year, he might have been better off not going pro. That would have given him an extra year to heal.
But I think he is going to be just fine.
I thought of that too but it's hard to improve on being the number 5 pick. It was a risk going pro this year but it paid off big.
I just hopes she gets rid of the dang ball more quickly when things don't seem to be going right......
Which is why I sit in utter disbelief at how many superstar athletes end up broke. A lot of them bring in more money on their endorsement deals than they do their team contracts. Which as we all know isn't chump change. I hope Tua is wise with his money and don't end up like a lot of pro athletes after they've retired.
I honestly cannot imagine him being stupid with his money.
