Tua is projected to be the first pick in next years NFL draft according to Mel Kiper Jr.  Do you agree?

At this point, absolutely. Of course he has areas to improve, and if he doesn’t then maybe it will cost him the top spot. But he already has shown that he has the best arm talent (accuracy, zip, touch, etc) of anyone in the country. Again, it’s not in cement, but at this point it’s his spot to lose.

If Kyler Murray was No. 1 this year, Tua will definitly be the top pick or at least top qb next year. I like Murray, but Tua will be at least a two year starter and wen he was fully healthy he was special!

I dont always agree with Mel but I do here. Tua was basically a freshman last year and starting his first year with Jalen looking over his shoulders. He wont have any pressure this year and i expect him to LIGHT IT UP!!! I care about the championships but would luv to see a bama quarterback go in the first round and get the top pick to. Whos the last one we've had Willy Joe?

For once I believe Tua will be at the top.  Jalen said he is making a run for it, but Tua is better, more poised, doing better in the pocket on timing and I think his blindside will be really well protected this next year.

Would love to see both going for the Heisman. Be good to see Jalen get some vindication for winning but I just care if we win the Championship. I think both will have very good years.

I've seen virtually every quarterback that has come through Alabama and I can say with 100% certainty that Tua is the best I've seen with my 58 year old eyes. The difference between him from the beginning of the year when he was healthy to when he could barely walk was paramount to the way the Tide struggled on offense. I know coach doesn't want to alienate the run game, but we have some absolute studs at wideout and it may be a conflict internally with him, but he's going to have to air it out and let Tua be great. The kid is something else.

We havent had a lot of top flight quarterbacks over the years but I get what your saying. Tua is the real deal and its great for us because more top tier qb's will want to come here like the Lawrence kid at Clemson. We will start getting guys like that.

Tua has a great shot at #1. It will help a great deal if he also gets the Heisman and of course another National Championship. We have had many QBs that are good team leaders but Tua and Jalen before him have exceptional calm and focused presence on the field. I have never seen true freshman at QB that can handle a big program like AL. It has been remarkable to watch. It will be great to see what Tua accomplishes on the field this year.

I agree Nancy! Hes been great and with all the hype coming into last year he more then lived up to it and if he didn't get hurt who knows how the rest of the season turned out for him he probably wins the Heisman if he didn't stick it up in the Georgia game for being hurt.

It will all come down to team need, but more than likely, he will be the first quarterback off the board in 2020, which is great for us. The more we can market that our quarterbacks are highly draftable coming out of Alabama, that means we get those elite level guys year end and year out. Tua is an elite quarterback and one of the best I've seen in my lifetime at this level.

I believe he will be the top pick as long as he is healthy and has another great year.

Don't believe there is another QB to compete for the spot.

Only shot is if there is a defensive lineman out there that may be the next beast, don't see it though.

Yeah Mcshay raved about him saying hes like the best passer hes seen in 20 years or something. Kyler was good but if he can go number one i know Tua can because hes just better imo.
