5 NFL teams that are going to wish they drafted Stetson Bennett IV

Sadly, Tua Tagovailoa is a year-to-year player at this point of his NFL career

While the Miami Dolphins made the right decision to extend the fifth-year option to former Alabama star Tua Tagovailoa, he is one nasty concussion away from having to hang up the spikes for good. Oh, he will fight off premature retirement like nobody we have ever seen, but no responsible medical staff will clear him if he has another trauma-filled season like last year.

Although the Dolphins are a perpetually chaotic mess of an organization, they were able to somehow land Mike McDaniel as head coach. Along with Tagovailoa’s mounting health concerns, this is why I think the Dolphins could have been a good fit for Bennett. Having an innovative offense centered around the ground game would allow for the game to come to Bennett faster.

While playing in the AFC East may not do wonders for his downfield passing, keep in mind that the New England Patriots are still leaning on Mac Jones to win games. In short, it’s fine. What isn’t is Miami taking a step or two back in McDaniel’s second season at the helm. Mike White is solid and Skylar Thompson showed promise, but Bennett has the similar clutch gene that Tagovailoa offers.

Keep in mind that the Dolphins’ greatest quarterback ever rocked some curly brown hair for them.
