I'm not saying to dump Tannehill, he's definitely the starting QB in 2018. I'm saying it's not a bad idea to draft a QB early because at the very least we could a potential very good backup. No one on our team is irreplaceable, including Tannehill.
It's starting to feel like the chiefs with Alex Smith, delaying the inevitable of just moving on from Tannehill.
And yes this is a team sport but teams need leaders to take them to the next level, not sure Tannehill is that guy to win us a superbowl and I'm tired of just being a middle of the pack football team. Other teams don't fear Tannehill, they don't worry about leaving too much time on the clock for him, defense coordinators don't lose sleep over him.
Is Tannehill even better than Tyrod Taylor? You can make that argument either way.
You have no idea what other teams think or feel. LOL at Tyrod Taylor.
Drafting a QB in the first or second round is a terrible idea UNLESS they have already decided to move on from Tannehill. I'll prove to you that using a 1st or 2nd round pick on a backup QB is an incredibly stupid idea. What would your reaction be to the Dolphins TRADING a 1st or 2nd round pick for a QB that they intended to keep only as a backup. This message board would lose their minds and rightfully so.
If KC dumps Smith and Mahomes tanks, heads will roll in KC but that is exactly what I am talking about. They look like they are moving on from Smith before Mahomes has done anything in the NFL, because that is exactly what teams do. That is exactly what I am talking about. Smith had a very good season. It doesn't matter. They made the decision last offseason to go in another direction when they drafted Mahomes.
