Kinda, sad that we had two of the QB's on that list and the Browns had the other. The rest of the league did ok.......lol
I'm not totally sure but I get a bit of a Big Ben vibe off Tannehill. Not as a person but rather as an afterthought that could go on to be special. Then again I would really bank on it.

He could turn out great but I think he is a big reach @ #4. I'd be fearful of his "potential" not developing as most say. He only has a handfull of games and ya never know how potential will mature.

I guess the same could be said for RGIII and Luck as well though. However, I like that they have a little more to judge them on.

Re: Griffin's impact on the off-season FA/draft

Tannehill started more D1 games than Cam Newton so it is not like he is lacking tape or even perhaps some necessary experience.

I think Tannehill is going to be very good. I think if you are QB-hungry you could do worse than taking him at #4. As Parcells said, better a round early (or in this case just a few picks early) than a pick too late.

Kiper and McShay predict that Tannehill will be a successful NFL quarterback. The fact that he only has 19 starts on the NCAA division 1 level might actually turn out to be a good thing. From the youtube videos I've seen of him, he's not that far behind Luck or Griffin III in terms of talent and ability. With the right coaching, he could be Joe Montana II.

IMO opinion it's to early to tell how good/great/bad everyone of them will be no matter how excited I get over drafting RG3/LUCK. Tannehill has the least amount of work to grade so with him it's even harder.

It doesn't look like the Redskins are going to sign a right tackle through free agency. If Brown continues to rehab his hip injury by doing yoga, maybe it will benefit him during the season. Whether he can play 16 games in a Redskin uniform remains to be seen.

Very much so. I feel like he's always near the top of my feed whenever I check my account on my phone. Anyway his tweets are mainly about Baylor, inspirational filler, and uh Kevin Hart.......Andrew Luck doesn't have a Twitter feed. He's to busy training. RG3 more like RGLeaf

RG3 already studying our playbook.

Source tells me Redskins Kyle Shanahan in Waco Tx. tonite Will visit RG3 couple times each week for next several weeks

Redskins OC Kyle Shanahan will reportedly meet with Baylor QB Robert Griffin III a couple of times per week leading up to the draft.
If it's true, the report speaks of the level of confidence by both the Redskins and Griffin's camp that the Colts are locked into Andrew Luck with the first pick. RGIII will get a head start on the Redskins playbook in the meantime, expediting his NFL learning curve. Apr 6 - 9:18 AM
