We’ve found Jim Nagy, the executive director of the Senior Bowl, to be a smart judge of talent, and he has 18 years of scouting experience with the Patriots, Chiefs, Redskins and Seahawks.Dolphins NFL Football Live . Nagy has closely evaluated these Miami Dolphins draft picks and shared insight on several of them in a phone conversation.On Tua Tagovailoa: The injury thing scares me and that was a big gamble. I would have asked for every assurance from my owner and if I didn’t get the OK from my owner, that it shouldn’t cost me my job if Tua got injured.
When they recruited Tua to Alabama, there were comparisons to Russell Wilson. I don’t think they’re very similar anymore. Whereas Russell is so good at extending plays and making plays off script, that’s not Tua’s deal. He is a springy and bouncy athlete but not great at creating. That’s where he gets himself hurt. Russell has a knack for getting out of harm’s way. Tua takes a lot of contact. You see on tape Tua gets hit a lot and goes down in a heap a lot. |
