Consider that in 2020, he drafted Tagovailoa, Austin Jackson, and Noah Igbinoghene in the first round. There are still questions and debates about Tua. Jackson is serviceable but not considered elite, and Igbinoghene was a flat-out bust.<\/p>\n<p>Miami is known for its long list of bad drafts, and we can now add another one to the list: Seventh-round draft pick Skylar Thompson. No one expects a seventh-rounder to make a huge impact on an NFL team\u2019s roster. While it happens more often than it used to, it is still rare to find a gem like Brock Purdy, whom the Dolphins passed on to draft Thompson.<\/p>\n<div id=\"qcmgidgb2\"><\/div>\n<h2><strong>Dolphins will stick with Tyler Huntley after the bye week, says Mike McDaniel<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tyler Huntley is\u00a0going to start\u00a0against the Indianapolis Colts when the Dolphins return from their bye week. McDaniel has said that he is going to stick with him, given the jump he says from his first game to the second. Thompson is\u00a0nearly 100% and will serve as the backup.<\/p>\n<p>After three years of development in the McDaniel system, he loses his job to a guy who has been in it for three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>It begs the question: Why was Thompson the backup plan entering the season? The Dolphins had to have known how things would\u2019ve gone if they needed him to start, and it didn\u2019t take long for them to give up on him. But it\u2019s something they needed to fix in the offseason.<\/p>\n<div id=\"qcmgidgb3\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Did the\u00a0Dolphins fail Thompson? Did they not develop him properly? Or was he never going to be anything more than an emergency third quarterback? It isn\u2019t like Huntley is some great quarterback that Miami lucked into finding.<\/p>\n<p>Thompson\u2019s future with Miami has to come to an end after the 2024 season is over. He doesn\u2019t need another year, and he doesn\u2019t need more time. Thompson needs a change of scenery and a new team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The Miami Dolphins continue to spin their wheels and twiddle their thumbs as they\u00a0wait for Tua Tagovailoa to return, but they are still being exposed for&#8230;
