With Jameis Winston's three game suspension and people, like ESPN, saying he needs to win in 2018 to have a future with the Bucs, would you prefer Tannehill or Winston as the Dolphins qb? I would prefer Tannehill, but consideration for Winston would include his Florida ties and his younger age. The truth is Winston's not a bad qb, but might always lose and be over shadowed in a division with Matt Ryan, Drew Brees and Cam Newton.
 
As I said at the top, I like Tannehill a great deal but I would have to consider the fact that Winston is 24 with 3 seasons of NFL experience while Tannehill was 24 when he started his first game as a rookie. I'll tell you this, there's not a scheduled 2019 NFL free agent qb or qb in the 2019 draft that I would take over Winston.

He might always lose but will always be a loser.
 
I believe Winston has more football moxie or presence that has not happened for RT yet. Winston also has some backwoods immaturity issues that I am not sure are full blown bad or he just has not grown up yet. Winston and Manziel both got that Hiesman trophy way to early in their college career and I think it went to their heads. No reason to give that trophy to a kid until he is a junior at least in college and has proven he has true leadership qualities and not just a strong arm. I am sticking with RT cause he is tough hard working guy that l respect and he is a phin. Both coming out of college in the same draft probably would have chosen Winston.
 
So after he’s been caught yet again acting the fool— to put it mildly— and has been sanctioned by the league for it, you still think it’s a good idea to bet on him showing better judgment in the future? Because I’m pretty sure he’s got some more idiotic behavior in him.
 
I pick Tannehill because he's not a rapist and I like that.

Although during Tannehill's 8 game stretch in 2016, Winston during that exact time frame put up an equally impressive run.

Tannehill 13 TD 5 INT 69% comp% 100.1 QBR
Winston 14 TD 4 INT 64% comp% 100.7 QBR
