1 year deal. Would not be surprised if he has more than a few starts.

Hmm. Why would Miami sign a guy capable of starting if they were going to move Heaven and Earth for Watson?

Sounds to me like the chips are all in for Tua. If he fails or gets injured they have a contingency.

An nfl starter? Wow how far we have fallen as fans. He is a backup that has traveled around the league. This is is what, 3rd team?

He is a serviceable starter. I want Tua to be pre-injury Tua, but we haven’t seen that yet and I am worried we might never see that.

If Tua has a good year I hope some of you guys have plenty of hot sauce to go with the crow you will eat. I don't know what we'll get from him, but I remain optimistic. To think we KNOW what we'll get from him next season is arrogant, either way. As for Brisset, he was brought in to be a servicable backup. Get used to the idea. He will play if Tua is hurt, period.

Let’s see how long the hook is if the team struggles to win games...

Tone would have liked this move as he and I debated about him prior to him being drafted. Tone liked him a lot, but I saw him at NC State and wasn't that impressed. Of course, back then our OL was not good and he did show toughness and patience in the pocket, but I never saw in him the accuracy or the abilty to carry the offense as I did with Phillip Rivers, Russell Wilson, or even Mike Glennon when they started for NC State. I would say that he played better in the NFL than I expected he would and is a starter/backup tweener. I like the move.

Jacoby Brissett to the Dolphins

With Ryan Fitzpatrick in Washington, Jacoby Brissett makes all the sense in the world. In fact, he’s Fitzpatrick-plus on the field and off the field, is a legitimately helpful presence for Tua Tagovailoa on a good day, and on a bad day, legitimate competition to push the rookie after an up-and-down campaign. Brissett likely had some other offers, which is a nice nod to Flores and the team he is building down in Miami.

GRADE: B

QB Jacoby Brissett: One year, $5 million ($5 million guaranteed)

Grade: Average

As one of the top names on the backup quarterback market, Brissett brings two seasons of starting experience with him from his time in Indianapolis — in 2017 while Andrew Luck missed time with injury and in 2019. Miami will hope he isn't needed as a long-term starter following just a 61.0 PFF grade across those two seasons, but he does provide some security should he be forced into duty for a game or two. The Dolphins may even opt to use Brissett as the designated quarterback sneak option after he went nine-for-nine on rushing conversions with two yards or fewer to go in 2020.

Brissett reunites with Brian Flores, who he crossed paths with during his one season in New England. This deal potentially signals confidence in Tua Tagovailoa even amid rumors of Miami exploring a trade for Deshaun Watson and contemplating what to do with the No. 3 overall pick in the upcoming draft.

The value is solid here, all things considered, as Brissett is the latest quarterback to sign an incentive-laden, one-year deal with a base value of around $5 million. Realistically, though, this is just the going rate for a quarterback who doesn’t guarantee you a loss as soon as he trots out to the huddle.

Yep, yep.....one yr Brisett is equal to regardless of our lip service we aren’t really sure Tua is all we want him to be and keeps us in the Watson sweepstakes if not in ’21 then if he comes available in ’22.

And regarding the pile of crow.....there will be two tables served, we’ll see which one has the longest line.

While I think Tua will take a big step forward this year, there is no guarantee. What would be good is if the Dolphins could trade down and net a 2022 first round pick out of it in case they need to trade up next year to grab a QB. And, I'll be happy to eat crow as I just don't see the smarts in giving up on what was a very promising QB coming out of college after just one season. However, if the Dolphins thought that way then we would have never had Bob Griese, so, I am ok with whatever the Dolphins choose to do.

I will be the first to eat crow if Tua shows up but I did not like him coming out of college let alone win a championship.
