In this day an age, you need a top QB to be a strong perennial contender. That is the general consensus backed up by a lot of recent data. But you don't need a top QB to win one Super Bowl and that is what the Dolphins may be trying to pull off in the next 2-3 years.
Tua in all likelihood is not a long term answer for the Dolphins but he may be a good value at QB over the next 2-3 years.
The standard for a QB to win a single SB isn't as high if that QB is on a rookie contract/relatively lowly paid and the team isn't having to carry too many bad contracts.
Dolphins appear to be positioning themselves for a SB run a year from now with or without Tua.
I would not be surprised at all if Tua has a fairly good season this year statistically speaking and he does a better job running the ball but I wouldn't invest big money in him on a 2nd contract given the injury risk and what I perceive as his level of talent.
