On April 21st, Dolphins fans got real heated last week when asked about the worst player to stick around Miami for any real stretch. Top of the list was Deon Jordan, that third overall pick they traded up for, who bombed out with suspensions and barely played before getting cut. Tua, Tegel-Viloa, Drew Fire 2, with folks saying he tanked half a decade, wrecked the rebuild, and left a huge deadcap hit. Other names popped like John Avery, a Jimmy Johnson flop where they traded down and missed Randy Moss. Eric Kumaro shocked everyone as a first-rounder who just wasn't ready, and Cam Smith, second-round in 2023, kept bouncing to practice. Squad till they released him. Fans ripped bad drafts hard, like Ronnie Brown over Aaron Rogers or Jake Long ahead of Matt Ryan. Yet Hill Green and Josh Rosen trades got called disasters, and some even blamed GM Chris Greer for picks like Jonah in the trenches who needs to step up. The pain ran deep, from guys who sucked on field to those derailing seasons and costing bags of cash.

One fan said Tua wasn't clutch, failing big spots like that Monday night game against the Titans. Hopefully the new front office learns from this mess and drafts smarter, turning the page on all that bus trauma for brighter days ahead.
