Yes, because Malik Willis had offers previously.

Malik Willis had options.

The Dolphins had to sell Malik Willis on a vision.

I don't think there was a bait and switch.

Now, I could be wrong, but I don't think this caught him by surprise.

I really don't.

And while we all know what Malik Willis brings to the table is he can throw a deep ball, and the numbers suggest that Waddell's probably like the third best deep threat in the league.

Like, the advanced numbers love Jalen Waddell way more than Dolphin fans love Jalen Waddell.

I get all that.

But I don't think this caught him by surprise at all.

You know what didn't catch him by surprise?

$45 million guaranteed in 67 on the contract.

I don't know what Arizona was going to offer, but when you're a guy who's basically a journeyman in the NFL and you see 45 guaranteed, you're like, you know what?

don't care what happens the first year i trust these guys i've been in the building with them they have a plan and yeah we may suck the first season but after that if they start putting you know pieces in place and getting other guys and drafting well this could be a team that in the next two years maybe i can get another contract for another 50 or 60 or 70 is that foolish of me dave to expect that the the miami dolphins probably floated their their vision for the future to malik willis

I'm not sure.

But now it feels like for Malik Willis' sake, they need to use the first pick on a pass catcher.

But for the team building overall, wouldn't you rather have somebody at the line of scrimmage?

If you're the Dolphins and looking at needs, really what it comes all around to is that...

I don't know why they just didn't stick with Tua.

And, you know, it's I hear what Tony's saying.
