Rosen sucks. Tannehill was much better. Tua might not be the answer either but we already can physically how garbage Rosen is.
Since we now have a significant stockpile of draft picks, does it make that much difference if we start winning a few gamws?

Tannehill had the same bullshit offense minus what? One tackle who everyone here said was expendable?
25% success rate is pretty damn good depending how you look at it. If 25% of your fellow HS grads went on to become millionaires that would be pretty incredible.
If the Dolphins won 25% of all Super Bowls we'd be the greatest franchise in NFL history with 13 Super Bowls.

And if 25% of all auto accidents resulted in a fatality, that would be horrid. Someone has already said fans need a baseline. What is the % of all other positions.
Well my 2 examples and your example fall in line with the fact that 25% is not a small amount. Which was my point.

You can't pass a grade school test with a 25%!
With the NFL success rate for 1st round draft picks somewhere around 50%, a 25% success rate is twice as bad. That's just plain bad!
Changing references to try and make a low percentage look good is total nonsense. When you use a success rate for all NFL draft selections based on how many are playing 1st string 5 years later, then you will have a meaningful reference; well, as meaningful as it can be in a TEAM BASED SPORT!
The succes rate for 1st round picks? I thought this whole thing was about the success rate of QB's picked 1st overall in relation to SB wins. Which was 7 of 24 since 1970 which is 29% btw not 25%.
You're right you can't pass a school test with 25% and if 25% of all student failed that would be a significant amount which is the point. The fact that 29% of all QB's selected 1st overall since 1970 have won a SB is a significant amount. It's not as you stated a "poor success rate".
But I guess I'm more of a glass half full kind of guy.

They looked like strong hands.
wtf?
Don't see any reason why a team like say, the Bengals, would have any interest in selling the top pick. Doesn't matter the ransom amount. They need a QB too.
**** the bullshit. Just lose.
What satisfaction do people get out of 3-4 wins vs. 1 or even 0? It could be the difference between an actual franchise QB prospect and..... Justin Herbert. No thanks.

I might agree, depending on what your glass is 1/2 full of.
Trying to use the percentage of “success rate” for a QB is moronic. Teams drafting that high usually suck. Quarterbacks take too much blame and too much credit. Good TEAMS develop good quarterbacks.
I’d almost rather use all of our picks on the trenches this year, have somewhat of a team and go get a QB next year draft. Tua is not this generational talent, he’s just a dude at the top of the list THIS year.
