So we all know Tannehill doesn't use all his weapons. TE Jordan and WR Stills were rarely thrown to. Now we draft another WR that is just going to sit there collecting dust when we were already stacked at that position. If this offense doesn't average more than 21 points a game next year, Tannehill needs to go. Because there are no more ****ing excuses. The oline is the best in the AFC East, we have the best recievers in the AFC East. What more does Tannehill need?
We draft a WR that is not going to be used, nice.

What an awful take. It's literally pointless to compare last year's offense to Gase's in 2016. Jordan Cameron had to block on the OL half the time because of Fox and Thomas. He can't do that and also catch 80 passes.
Kenny Stills? He was the 3rd WR, his numbers weren't gaudy but were they supposed to be in the first place? Landry led the team in catches and was followed by Matthews. Not everyone is going to have 60 catches.

Stills also had a number of very frustrating drops.

Why do you people continue to live in the past? Did you miss the news that we hired an entirely new coaching staff with different philosophies, gameplans, and pedigree? What a pointless post to start. Get with the now.

Leaving all of the hyperbole at the door...this was a luxury pick. We still haven't done one single thing to improve the interior line- unless, of course, you consider drafting and picking up FA tackles and intend to turn them into guards. I know people get so jazzed about the pretty picks(toys), but until Miami gets serious about building an offensive line that can compete against the D-lines of the East, Tannehill, and the Fins, don't have chance. I'm starting to think to get that done is going to require a new owner, GM, personnel department...etc. No, we do not have the best line in the AFC East. SMH
There is a very high likelihood that Carroo is the #2 wide receiver in this offense, most likely not this season, but definitely next season and beyond. Call me crazy, but I really like the player and how the team envisions how he will fit in their offense. I think wide receiver was more of a need than most people realized.

We could've drafted Kendall Fuller as our full-time nickel CB which is necessary in today's pass happy league. He's probably better than Maxwell and Howard right now. He would've been a player on the field making impact 50-70% of the time instead of catching 25 balls. We needed two more good corners. Not one. He was sitting there.

Nothing was more of a need than our secondary and an OLB. Same old Dolphins. Thank God for Tunsil's Twitter.

Did you miss the Tunsil pick in the first round? It allows you to play either Albert or Tunsil at left guard and gives you a lot of options with Turner, Douglas, and Bushrod battling it out for right guard and depth positions. I think there is finally legitimate talent and depth on the offensive line.

I imagine Tannehill might be able to use more of his weapons when he has more than .2 seconds to get a throw off. Adding Tunsil should help with that. I HATE the picks we sacrificed yesterday, because I think that was unnecessary. But I have no problem at all with any of the picks themselves. The Carroo kid is a good take in the 3rd, and could be a good weapon from jumpstreet for us. And we did need another WR. You're a checker player if you think we didn't. He's Stills replacement beyond 2016. Now the only other thing we need on offense is a TE for the long haul. Unfortunately, we don't have much ammunition left to fill in the remaining hole on defense.
Miami addressed the O-line with Tunsil. Either he or Albert will play OG in 2016. There's no room to complain about O-line anymore. In fact, the offense should be stacked. Pretty clear that Miami's goal was to present Tannehill with an offense in 2016 that has no reason to fail. The Drake pick really stings.

Then let's trade Stills and recoup some of the picks that were wasted.

If he was any good the Saints wouldn't have traded him.
