Not really. The top two QBs in the 2012 draft were Andrew Luck and RG3. Tannehill was a very distant third. Russell Wilson would have been a guaranteed first-round pick if he were a bit taller, and draft analysts said as much. None of this was a secret four years ago. The reason the Dolphins drafted him so high was because Mike Sherman put in a good word and then babied Tannehill for two offseasons. By the time Bill Lazor got to Miami, the team was in "win now" mode. But Tannehill wasn't a "win now" quarterback and Lazor knew it. So he dumbed down the offense and hoped for the best. A lot of people criticized Philbin for throwing Tannehill under the bus before he left and there is some truth to the criticism. But he was right.
On a different team, Tannehill may have evolved into a serviceable starter. Unfortunately, that's the story for a lot of Dolphins quarterbacks. This is kind of what we do--we fukk up prospects.
Stop, he was average at A&M and threw for 29 TDs in the spread offense w/ 15 interceptions his last season
that cracker got hyped off everything black QBs get slandered for, a former WR.
there was no "he's better suited as a WR in the NFL...he needs to change positions."
Sherman told scouts he was a gem and they ate that shyt up
I'll say it again, this cracker got butt hurt at DBs for intercepting him
...motherfukker is a clown
Titans tried to bury that dude
Never seen a team with worse running backs wanna run the ball so much. Dolphins got too many weapons at receiver to not throw the ball down field. If Tannehill isn't the answer(he isn't) then go with Matt Moore. At least he isn't afraid to throw the ball.
