If Tannehill is good enough to go at no. 6, he should be playing over Manning anyway.

Well Tannehill is not really worth the 6th pick since he's not generally considered a guy that can step in and play right away. However, if they want him they may be forced to take him there. That's the way it goes with QB's.

I think if we presented Peyton with an aggressive free agency plan he would be less concerned with what we were doing with the 6th overall pick. He also knows the position and can probably watch one practice and realize that Tannehill is not a threat to his job any time soon. It would not be the same message drafting RG3 or Luck would be IMO.

Hard to disagree that Tannehill isn't worth the sixth pick if you can watch one practice and tell he's not ready to play.

Someone's going to be the third best quarterback in this draft though. If it's not Tannehill that's worth the sixth pick, it will be someone else.

would you rather take the best corner, wide reciever or tackle in the draft or the 3rd best QB in the draft at 6th?

My opinion of how close the QB are 1. Luck..............2.RG3........................... .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..............3.Tannehill.

Just to be clear do the periods represent skips or jumps?

I might take the best corner (Claiborne)

Don't think the best receiver (Blackmon? Floyd?) is better than the 3rd best QB

The best T (Kalil) won't be available at 6th. Unless you're saying the Redskins sign Manning and trade up to 2. Then shock the world by drafting Matt Kalil

I think that the gap between RGIII and Tannehill is not as big as you make it out to be.

your saying you start Tannehill day one then?

I dont see it. I saw Tanny play 3 or 4 games this season. I was never impressed. I dont think he is better than Foles. but hey its just an opinion.

I think you can start RG3 and obviously Luck.

Id take Blackmon over Tanny at 6

I don't think it's that crazy. The fact is no one knows for sure, not even the so called experts who do this for a living. Who cares how high a guy can jump or how fast he can run. The last 10 Super Bowl winning QBs were Eli, Rodgers, Big Ben, Brees, Manning, Brad Johnson and Brady. Go back 2 more years and you can include Kurt Warner and Trent Dilfer.

Eli and Peyton were the only ones taken first overall. History tells us that it's highly likely that one or more QBs taken AFTER Luck and RGIII will go on to have similar or better careers. Why not Tannehill? Anything you think you know from their college tape or combine workouts could become irrelevant in a few years.

It's like they said in the Brady 6 documentary. No one could crack open his chest and look at his heart. What makes me laugh are the comments about long ball accuracy, arm strength, mobility, etc. it's all mostly BS. No one here knows for sure.

No No No. I didnt mean it like that. I was still thinking of the periods being used as a measurment in some previous post that his post alludes to. I think Tannehill is going to be a top 10 QB in 2 or 3 years.

And to me everytime I hear this I think you could be way off. I guess Brady being drafted so far back would be a couple of pages of................................................ .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..................................................

Seriously no matter their individual physical skills I could see even Weeden, Tannehill, or Cousins having a better year then Luck or RGIII based off of possibly their teams OL protection or WR play or if their team has no run game. That's if all were to start.
