Why do so many people keep saying this? It is ridiculous. Tannehill is not worth a top 10 pick. Not even a first round pick. But that is not to say he won't be drafted in the first round, he just shouldn't be.

He is more of a project than RG3 and less accurate and a lower ceiling.

If, IF, we target him I am sure Shanny will have enough sense to trade down and get a few more picks.

He basically said what he "thought" would happen not what he wanted to happen. Just about everyone here would love for the Skins to take Luck or RGIII, but most of with any common sense can figure that the Colts will take Luck and RGIII will probably go to the Rams, Browns, or Bucks.

So, when you see fans listing any of the other QB's besides Jones it's because they are figuring maybe the top 3 or 4 teams could take a QB and that leaves slim picking for the Skins and instead of going another year with out a QB they are saying we need to take whatever the next available QB is at #6, whoever they are.

What??? I can see the Browns taking RGIII (but QB isn't even in their top 3 needs) the Rams & Bucs, each of whom have drafted a 1st round QB in the past 3 years are now going to want RGIII also? If that's the case (which it won't be) that's great for us because then a young QB will be easily available for us!

Well lets just for a moment look at each...

Colts- no way they pass on Luck.

Rams- "IF" Luck was passed up they would take him. Otherwise... RGIII. I just don't think they are as satisfied with Bradford as others think, and the rumors of the Rams trading Bradford and taking RGIII does not help.

Vikes- I doubt would take another QB. I think they stick with their 2011 draft pick.

Browns- are rumored to want RGIII. Especially if he's available still.

Bucks- funny I'm also a Bucks fan and didn't know/care that they took a QB recently. Maybe cause I didn't like their HC so I didn't pay too much attention to them the last couple a years since Gruden was fired. But whoever they had just didn't stick out as a "franchise" QB to me. I could see whoever takes over wanting to get "their" QB.

Redkins- hopefully whoever is the next best QB on the list. Maybe we should take a second look at Weeden from OSU since they just beat Stanford and gave Luck a loss in the bowl game.

Can I say this Mock Draft sucks?...

they think we need a DT yet Jarvis Jenkins will be coming back next year. WTF? How about QB, WR, FS, or OL, before we pick another DT.

For any team that is need of a qb, the qb is always the number 1 need.
