At best, he's Alex Smith with worse pocket presence.
Now that he has had injury problems in the past 2 years, he is a diminished player relative to his peak in 2016.
Peak Tannenhill had a strong arm, could make throws on the run, did a decent job of throwing deep, generally took care of the ball.
His biggest weakness is that he plays poorly when the game speeds up: on 3rd down, on the road. He is not an instictive quarterback and doesn't improvise well.
Might be crazy, but I think he compares favorably with Jared Goff. They seem to have similar traits. Goff has more upside and seems like he can create a bit more with his legs.
McVay's system when its working picks up chunk plays, which keeps their offense out of 3rd down.
