Overall, I'm happy with the trade, but I'll have to remember to ask myself this in three-five years...

Let me say first that I am glad that we will get Griffin because he is the better QB.

That said, I don't think that the gap between Griffin and Tannehill is as big as some people think, which is why I was beating Tannehill's drum so much before the trade. IMO Tannehill is going to be very good. It will be interesting to see if Griffin will be two firsts and a second (the net of the trade) better than Tannehill.
