Good info here.
We heard late last season that they were really high on this kid. And it turned out to be true.
They're betting they can get 10+ years out of a 1-2 year investment.
I'll say this, he's got all kinds of raw talent, some of which is starting to seep out.

Wait, so Tannehill was asked (in front of Ireland and Sherman) if Sherman made a mistake in not starting him earlier? Man that's a ballsy move. Would love to her Ryan's answer.

79 drops?
Was he throwing to Brandon Mashall and Ted Ginn?Ophinerated, Boik14, The Rev and 11 others like this. -

Marshall, Chambers and Ginn would be a pretty damn good receiving core actually. Especially in college football :lol:

This should be stickied. Good stuff.

Jeff Fuller had around 23 of those dropped passes. When I watched Ryan on film, I always came away feeling that his receivers clearly failed him with drops.

He has everything they need in a potentially great quarterback, they just have to bring it all out and put it all together.

well i guess the florida media is now picking the players for the dolphins . man what a crappy draft pick . the dolphins always goes for the lesser talent . i would take Tanehill in rd 2 but no way is he a top 15 pick . I hope you guys are ready for more bad qb play

I've yet to see bad quarterback play from Ryan Tannehill, and I've watched every throw he's made in 7 games. This guy has the best feel for the pocket of all the quarterbacks in this draft.

The thing about him that I like is his....well, intangibles... He's a coach's son, he is a gym rat, grew up in film study, has a few 'flaws' but the ones he does have seem to be coachable and probably due to inexperience... I'm excited for us for a change, even tho I fully expect MMoore to be our starter...
Bet Devlin's not too happy right now...bran, Fin D and Ohio Fanatic like this. -

I am happy with the pick....I had us drafting him, and I have us taking Bobbie Massie in Round 2.

Ireland confirmed tonight that Tannehill told them (he and Sherman) that he should have started as a freshman. They love that competitive fire.
It's abundantly clear he's expected to sit, but he wants to compete. At a minimum, he's going to be highly involved since he's going to have the strongest grasp of that offense the moment he steps off the plane. And if you saw his episode on Camp Gruden, he's the only guy Gruden's ever seen who was actually demonstrating for the WR's how to properly run their routes.
We'll have to be patient. And what's ironic is that a lot of the fanbase appears to be ready to do just that.Ohio Fanatic, gafinfan, Marco and 7 others like this. -

That reminds me of that story about Manning teling Polian that "I'll kick your *** for the next 15 years if you dont pick me"

Most people agree he's a HIGHLY talented guy. He's just raw. Just needs to bake at 425 for a season or so. That's the way it used to be done and it isn't extinct if we look around the league. If you grade a QB as a second rounder, that makes him a first rounders in today's NFL. Just the way it goes now.
Time will tell, but that's where we are now. They knew full well what they were getting. The Packers have been doing it this way for 2 decades. Behind Favre was Brunell, Hasselbeck, Brooks, Rodgers, Flynn and so on. Not always guys drafted highly (because they had Favre). But they drafted guys and developed them. -
