Dolphins, Cardinals seeking trade options for Tua, Kyler

[True Dough]

Not an easy thing to pull off, as anyone in a dynasty fantasy league can attest!

As the Miami Dolphins and Arizona Cardinals navigate the future with new head coaches, both teams would like to find trade partners for their starting quarterbacks.

The Dolphins would like to explore trading Tua Tagovailoa; ditto for the Cardinals and Kyler Murray. But it remains unclear whether a deal for either quarterback is feasible given the financial hurdles for an acquiring team.

There certainly are expected to be a handful of teams in the market for new quarterbacks. In addition to the Dolphins and Cardinals, the list could include the New York Jets, Atlanta Falcons, Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings.

Miami is expected to be willing to pay down a portion of Tagovailoa's contract to help facilitate a trade, sources told ESPN, though the money still makes it challenging.

1. Hope Miami gets rid of Tua.

If he's smart, he'll retire before taking more blows to the head.

2. Yeah, there's been some brutal hits and terrifying concussions

But he's shown no indication of being prepared to step away from pro football despite having close to $100 million in guaranteed income through his last contract.

3. Dead cap money is a killer

I feel for these guys. I think as we’ve witnessed with Sam Darnold that it takes and entire organization for a QB to show their true ability. Did Murray and Tua have that opportunity?

4. The only way Miami is getting rid of Tua is if they cut him which isn't very bloody likely.

With $54 mil in guaranteed salary this year, he isn't likely to retire and with $100 mil in dead money if they cut him, the only hope is someone is stupid enough to trade for him, his contract, and his concussed brain.
