Tua has pedestrian arm strength but is great with his vision and accuracy.




I really don't know what people think about arm strength. Most deep balls are about timing, not about arm strength. Tua has plenty of arm strength and some to spare when it comes to making those throws.

Take 2nd and 26 for example. That ball was thrown with some speed and hit Smith in stride. Without good arm strength, that play doesn't happen. Perfectly throw ball with plenty of power behind it.

Tua's problem is what people forget and what made it 2nd and 26 to start with. He took a 16 yard sack.

you got to get it there.

But Drew never had elite Arm Strength

Definitely NOT comparing Tua to the Brees, though.

Tua will be fine, if his body holds up. He just needs to work to get better. He was NOT ready for the field this year
