I’ve to start this publish with a confession, I don’t know a ton or a lot in any respect about Mike White. I’ve seen him play a few instances and I don’t recall something spectacular or actually something in any respect about how he performed. Normally if I see some younger participant that I do know little about ball out in a recreation I usually keep in mind it and precisely who it was. So when the Miami Dolphins signed him to a proposal sheet to be the backup to Tua Tagovailoa I didn’t know the place I stood on the signing so I did what most of us do when there may be breaking information, we wade into the human cesspool that’s Twitter. It won’t ever cease wonderful me what individuals can be keen to say on-line after they really feel protected behind their pc screens.
So how did it go? At first, there have been a number of posts that advised that it was a silly signing of a nasty QB that was additionally paid an excessive amount of. There had been additionally just a few that had been proud of it and even one individual that I noticed mentioned White was the man he needed the workforce to get all alongside. I noticed a hyperlink to an article that as finest I may inform from the title (I’m not paying to get past each paywall on the planet) the article was roughly an argument that we should always belief McDaniel and he should have seen one thing in White that made him wish to convey him again house to south Florida. Without even studying the article, maybe a few of you’ve and may chime in with extra strong info, I then immediately felt higher.
Mike McDaniel is by all accounts a mad genius in terms of offensive soccer. With that, I assume that he additionally has the flexibility to scout gamers primarily based on what he’s on the lookout for so far as the place he performs and the system that he runs. But, with that mentioned, genius or not determining what a participant may turn out to be is essentially the most not possible job there may be within the NFL. How many guys have we every seen go excessive within the draft and simply assume, wow, that man goes to be a stud within the NFL, what an superior decide solely to see them crash and burn within the NFL? So even the mad genius goes to get some issues incorrect, others very incorrect, some proper, and a few he’ll hit out of the park.
So I’m nonetheless caught and gained’t know what to assume till I see him in a Phins uniform on a area throughout a recreation. Maybe McDaniel can take a man that has very combined evaluations and switch him right into a viable long-term reply at backup quarterback or perhaps we can be doing this once more subsequent 12 months. As far as the value, who is aware of what it truly is till we see how the deal is written? It may very well be backloaded with the concept that if he simply doesn’t get the job performed that they’ll simply lower him subsequent 12 months and if he does then they’ll simply prolong him past that time. But what’s vital is what do you assume?
So tonight’s query is the place do you sit on the signing of White to be Tua’s backup? Are you cheerful, very upset, or someplace within the center?
