Anyhow, I don't know what will happen. No one does. But if someone said I had to put money down on who I think they'll draft right now I'm tempted to lean toward Jones or Tannehill.

And sorry for ignoring your PM

Would they go Tannehill 1st round though?

top 7? I'd be kind of surprised. Bottom half (either via trade down, or trade up from 2nd round), wouldn't surprise me at all.

I think though that he'll be taken somewhere in the 15-20 spot, by whoever takes him.

There has been some talk that after a good showing at the combine, he could very easily inch into the first round.

that makes sense, every year at this time prospects all have a sort of preliminary ranking, then the combine & other info. changes things. QBs will go higher simply cause a team knows they can't get them w/their next pick. Ponder, e.g., was looked at as a late 1st/early 2nd pick at best heading towards the draft, then went #12 to Minnesota.

Many thought it was indeed a stretch at 12 though...and in retrospect it likely was.

I'm going to have to watch some You Tubes on Tannehill. He hasn't been mentioned a lot. It's been Andrew Luck and RG III.

The reason you never hear about this guy is because he isn't that good. I would pissed off if we drafted him in any round. I would much rather go with Kellen Moore. He might be undersized but he PLAY! Ryan Tannehill hasn't impressed me at all. I've seen him of Texas A&M game so trust me when I see we much better off with Landry Jones, Nick Foles, or Kellen Moore.

Tannehill has outstanding mobility, a good live arm, pretty good accuracy, and leadership skills. You may read that he played wide receiver but he was a QB before that and has started at QB for the last two years. He's a definite first round prospect.

Have you ever actually watched him play?

How else could I have described him as I did?
