Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search
Looking at Tannehill and Jones I don't look at their stats/performance because their indelibly linked to the circumstances that occur with their surrounding team and coaching.
Therefore I'm not concerned nor do I worry about perceived 'dips' in performance because it doesn't change their physical skillset. Its why a prospect like Locker can have a perceived 'bad' season and still get drafted top 10. I only look at skillset/talent: can/how does their skillset project at the next level. Their scheme doesn't matter much to me because all the prospect will(should) have the best coaching of their lives at the next level. The prospects should all have their best football ahead of them.

As far as the arm talent difference between Jones and Tannehill I just don't see it. Tannehill can flat out hum it; the litmus test for NFL arm strength from the far hash to the far sideline with ease. I've seen him hit the seam with ease and drop in 'bucket' throws. Imo (sum): Tannehill=Jones arm talent Tannehill>Jones athleticism(avoid)/playmaking Jones=experience; especially in know when/what type of throw to use in a given situation Tannehill>Jones integration into Kyle's offense because of the A&M/Houston offense connection BUT- Don't get me wrong I like Jones.(subtracting Broyles from that offense hurt OU) He reminds me of a more mobile Ryan Mallett and I liked Mallett alot. I'm just hashing out why I rank Tannehill ahead for this team. Last edited by 30gut; 01-04-2012 at 11:51 AM. |
