Not a bad gamble for a team with huge cap space that needs young leaders. Bringing in Tagovailoa for a QB competition while filling the rest of the roster with upside draft products is a great way for Miami to contend for the division and hedge its bets. Moreover, his aforementioned confidence in pro style RPO and spread offenses meshes well with Miami’s preferred offensive philosophy.
