Good morning to you again.

Where do you want to take us first?

The Davids don't have a ton of money to spend in free agency, but they are expected to spend this offseason. Gentlemanager, Chris Greer, has been, let's see pretty open about the desire for a long-term contract extension for Tua Tugavailoa. I know there is hope for for Tua that this gets done around the spring so we can just focus on spring drills, OTAs, and all of that. Sometimes these things don't always happen like you want, but surely this is something that is very much on the dolphins radar. As it should be, Ian, thank you so much. Talk to you a little bit. Tuo Tungo Vailoa, extension talk. What does this mean for the dolphins right now and beyond?

But also maybe a look back at what Tua has or has not accomplished in Miami.

I like that. I look back and you think about the journey that Tua has been on since he joined the Miami Dolphins.

And Brian Flores was his head coach and there was a roller coaster ride coming in.

And they had Ryan Fitzpatrick there in the beginning.

And there were doubts and there were times that Tua even said it where he started to doubt whether he was going to be a quality quarterback in this league.

Enter Mike McDaniel.

Two has just continued to skyrocket and an upward trend of we saw him have two of his best seasons.

Yes, he got injured a year ago. This year played every single game and continued that streak of being able to get the ball out to whether it was Jalen Waddle or Tyreek Hill, a Pro Bowl type of season. And he's continued to perform and he's earned the contract that is coming to him. Now you say, what does that mean for the Miami Dolphins? We watched over the last few years, Chris Greer, the general manager, tradeaway picks going to get a guy like Tyreek Hill and surrounding Tira with the talent that he has. Once you pay Tua, talking about Lowa, a new contract and you put them amongst those top quarterbacks in the NFL, that takes away from the rest of your team. They've already lost a ton of guys, whether they've had to release guys or left in free agency on the defensive side of the ball this offseason already. So as you look at how you're making up a team, and you look at Christian Wilkins, sign one of the biggest deals for the defensive tackle. They had to release Agua, Xavier Howard, Jerome Baker, and then Brandon Jones and Van Ginko have left. And that's not even talking about the two guys at the bottom of that screen who are not going to be there at the beginning of the season due to injury. They've been able to have some quality pickups like Shaquille Barrett, Jordan Porter, who rap sheet just talked to you about. But for this team, now it's a different error for Tua because now you're going to be walking in and you have to go out there and win games. In the playoffs, you go on the road and you're playing in Kansas City. You're going to need more than seven points. They're not going to be surrounded with as much talent because now you're going to need those draft picks to hit a guy guy like Cam Smith, they drafted in the second round,
