It's a conundrum.  I don't want something no one else wants, which is why I would avoid him if he falls to 20, but then if the Pats or the Saints try to trade up to get him, that means someone does want him.  

On the other hand, both those teams might be in the mood to take a wild chance that he will regain his health and become a franchise QB.  Should we take that same chance?  We're not in their situation.  They have great rosters and they can keep their winning tradition going with a new franchise QB.  If the odds of him regaining this health were only 20%, they might logically want to take a wild swing for the fences, and we might logically not want to do that.  Because they are soon going to be missing just one piece of the puzzle, and we are missing about 10 pieces.
Playing it safe is how you end up with Fournette and Taven Bryan. This franchise needs stars and wins.

I’ve been saying for a while that they need to take a chance and go for a home run. Tua has a chance to be really special (IMO) and I would take that chance at 9 rather than 20.
