Doesn't see the entire field, mediocre accuracy and poor pocket awareness.
Tannehill # 1 pick in this years draft!

What did I say that needed you to verify or correct what I said? Read my post again. Also, the idea that Tannehill could be the #1 overall pick if he were in this draft is not laughable. It is a very realistic possibility. This year's group isn't all that great and Tannehill likely grades out higher than most if not all at the QB position.

I did read it. However, the OP's point of posting this thread was to annoint him the #1 draft pick if he came out this year. He's doing it to dig for a silver lining among another mediocre season this franchise had. You tried to make it about just the QB's, but that's not what the OP is saying at all. He could've very well regressed like Matt Barkley. You think people expected his fall off? Course not. That's why it's pointless to automatically suggest anyone would've been guaranteed top pick in the draft had they stayed.
prob be clowney if he declares, as bad as the chiefs need a QB, and we would've had another season with moore with about an identical record, and we would've been looking at drafting aaron murray this year, i was on his jock last year and wanted us to bypass drafting a til murray declared. im not complaining about tannehill but dont see him as a full on hit #1 pick, nor any other qbs that are coming out this year

Agreed. Its so comical to read these premature 'expert analyses' from the armchair QB club.

Too bad Clowney can't declare. Now that would be the top consensus among most people's board. Can't wait for him to be in the 2014 draft. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/01/01/nfl-draft-rules-a-bad-deal-for-jadeveon-clowney/
Well that's kind of the point of having message boards. I consider myself a homer but I see red flags with Tannehill. Are we supposed to lie?

Accuracy I will give you. The other two, no way! His pocket awareness was a strength and you have no idea if he sees the entire field unless you study the film every game. I watched every game just like most on here, there is no way you could possibly tell what he was seeing. Does he lock on to one receiver on occasion? Of course, all qbs do at times. THE GUY IS A ROOKIE who came into the league with a limited resume. I have no idea how Tannehill will turn out....but to pigeon hole someone after one season is completely and utterly ridiculous. Given the circumstances, Tannehill performed pretty solid in my opinion and while he obviously needs to improve, he played pretty well overall!
Tannehill was a Senior when he was drafted, he had no eligibility left to stay another year in college. But Yes, if he was able to be drafted in 2013, he would have had a chance, to be the 1st QB off the board.
Did you even read the post? Where did the OP suggest anything that even remotely related to comparing RT to Marino, or anything you are mentioning in your post? Talk about, "Dude please"...
Doesnt see the entire field - Eh thats debatable
Mediocre accuracy - Would like to see a higher completion percentage and some of his throws were off but it would be nice if the receivers could catch balls that hit them in the hands or chest. With that completion %age is certainly a skewed number.
Poor pocket awareness - Definitely wrong here. He has tremendous pocket awareness.
So you have no opinions on the QB position, the OL, DL, WR, CB, LB, S, RB.... positions? Not sure what the point of being on a forum is if you have no opnions.

Ryan Tannehill has poor pocket awareness, that's funny.
He's no Andrew Luck, but that's not a knock on him. Go back and watch some plays from Matt Moore last year and then compare them to Tannehill under pressure this year. One guy has 'pocket presence' and the other does not.

I agree and there would be a thousand posts as to why we should trade up to get him.
