Buckle in 'cause this ride gets a little bumpy sometimes. Bring any Pepto? I've found copious amounts of alcohol on game-day can also be very medicinal.

This is the most spot on sentence about Parker as you’ll ever read. While he isn’t the greatest thing since sliced bread, he’s also better than virtually any individual player that another manager would ever offer for him in a 1 for 1 trade. Extrapolated over the last 16 NFL games he’s played, he’s basically a set and forget low end WR1/high end WR2. Somewhere right in that range. Almost nobody that doesn’t already have him on their roster values him that high though for whatever reason. 🤷🏻♂️ Edited October 8, 2020 by Dislimb 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And that's with nagging injuries in the early weeks. I love watching Parker so truly hope he can come out one of these weeks free of all his nagging tweaks and aches and just ball out at 100%.

this guy right here 986 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I assume there are other owners who, like myself, are concerned with the arrival of Tua. Fear of potential lack of chemistry. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fear of potential lack of chemistry. A few things. 1. Pretty sure the Dolphins are going to let hin learn as much as possible from the bench this season. 2. Even if / when Tua comes in he may not have Fitzmagic's experience but he is already likely a better playmaker in general. Parker could break some huge runs on scramble routes. 3. Rookie QBs tend to lean on their best weapons. Why would he target Parker less? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tua being accurate may have a report with a better route runner/ someone he's practice with more. But that's not the only possible concern. Fitz being less accurate, and a gun slinger, turns the ball more over leading to throwing more due to trailing more. Gun slinger Fitz means more throws into coverage. More deep shots. Tua could play game manager and slow down the offense. Slow offense creates less opportunities. Less opportunities less production.

kco734 348 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Anyone questioning Tuas ability to get the ball to Parker obviously never saw him play at Bama. He can make every throw and will elevate Parker to an elite level. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RonnieRonaldo 126 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Are we firing him up this week? Seeing him exit early with an ankle, along with a stout SF D is giving me some pause. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deejay 35 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 SF is hurting On defense with injuries. Fire up DeVante as long as his health is not an issue. Hopefully a full practice Friday (possibly Thursday) will make me feel better about playing him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PhilaFanBoy 293 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Good to see him practicing without limitations after injuring his ankle mid-game on Sunday (and returning, as we saw, to catch 8 more passes for 96 yards). 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harck 478 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Yeah got the healthy notification on my phone and was pretty hyped. Let's hope he can remain healthy for the rest of the season and give us those fantasy numbers from last year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rlaalsrb 328 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 The only concern is that he'll get 3 recs for 50 yards in the 1st quarter and then exit the game with injury. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gun slinger Fitz means more throws into coverage. More deep shots. Tua could play game manager and slow down the offense. Slow offense creates less opportunities. Less opportunities less production. This first part could very well end up being the case. Tua as a rookie may make less turnovers. It may be similar. I think Tua like Rodgers will learn a lot from sitting behind a gunslinger. Learning from chances they take. But I just don't see The Dolphins risking Tua's health and development to bring in a "game manager" who they were floored to draft 5th overall. Remember before Burrow it was "Tank 4 Tua". Plus regardless of who is at QB The Dolphins Defense is still going to be bad. So scoring will have to happen on the offensive end to win games.
