then we will have Tannehill and Rex or Orton.

Agreed...unless Tannehill turns out to be a much better QB than expected.

I think I probably give it a 60-40 edge Manning over RG3 as our next QB. We shall see

60-40? So does that mean you're 100% sure (as sure as you can reasonably be) well get one or the other?

Oh no, I was just speaking in terms of those two only. Though, from what I hear it's probably 90% it will be one of those two (doubt it's both)

A 90% chance of either Manning or Griffin makes for a happy day.

Definitely. Those are odds I like.

Is that another sick Rex Grossman/RG3 joke?

If we take a T, it's like Martin or Glenn (with Reiff a bit of a smaller possibility). Though I don't think any of them are taken at 6.

If we stay at 6 I believe it's Tannehill, Claiborne, Blackmon in that order of likelihood. With Floyd a dark horse

With or without Manning?

That was my confusion too.

I'm tempted to say yes. That said, it would not surprise me at all if the Dolphins moved into the top 5 to get Tannehill if we can legitimately convince them we'd take Tannehill even with Manning

I hope that we can take Tannehill at 6. My fear of a potential Manning signing is that we will then not go all-in on finding a QB of the future to groom. I think that someone like Cousins will be a career backup so a combo like Manning + Cousins (or other lower tier rookie) is problematic IMO.

Whatever team RG3 goes to will have a Cam Newton type of effect. Ryan Tannehill not so much. I live in Charlotte and the excitement for the Panthers has never been this high. RG3 is a better prospect than Cam was and thanks to Andrew Luck coming out is within our reach. We need to make this happen.

I think it's debatable that RG3 is a better prospect than Cam was
