With the uncertainty in the press conference today and reports I'm reading about the potential recovery time I think this is Tuas best option

Do not declare for the 2020 draft.

Sit out the 2020 season while rehabbing at Alabama

Then he's healthy to play in the Senior bowl as well as attend the combine and Alabama's pro day.

Saban will pull scholarship. That’s not part of the process.

You do all these leaks and decisions have nothing to do with Tua right? All this crap is coming from the Tagovailoa family.

Absolutely not. If he's picked in the teens he's looking at a signing bonus in the $8-12m range.

If that's in your pocket you take it - especially if you're not guaranteed to get everything you lost back. They're going to want him to prove his athleticism next year. This year he can just roll up in his chair and collect his check. It's a no-brainer.

Go to the NFL now. Start earning those years of service towards the pension and retirement benefits. He'll still be a first round pick due to the extra contract year. Maybe he ends up with a team like NE or NO where he can sit for a year without pressure and then start in 2021.

That young man needs to go get paid. He has earned it.

I’m a Saints fan and would love to have Tua. It would be 2 years before he would have to start a game

Saban has already proven repeatedly he would rather win one game than worry about what's best for his players.

If he comes back then he can hang up a pro career. Someone might take a chance on him right now.

He's gotten hurt both years he's been a starter. Leave and get a rookie contract. He may not even have that option if he tries to come back and play for Bama.
