If Steven Spielberg was producing a documentary film on Tannehill’s on field performance would you suddenly revere him a a pro scout?

Filmmaking, producing, and editing chops do not a scout make.

Seriously, he is not Cam Newton-size and should stay in the pocket as much as possible if he wants to have a long career.

If the Browns are smart, they worry about the right side of their O-line and someone to catch the damn ball instead of yet another “drafted higher than his real value” QB like Quinn and McCoy.

Your wrong, the draft is not about hype, it is about weighing Need vs. Value, and not just for your team, but how much another team values a prospect as well. In all of the mock drafts done by any “Guru” this season, Tannehill has only gone to teams with dire QB situations, and it has been mentioned many times that Tannehill has a 2nd-3rd round grade. Sure, hype does play a small role, but teams will reach for a player they think will turn around their franchise. Nobody is pumping up Tannehill as being the best QB prospect, they are just making assesments about his talents compared to the other QB’s.

Causing some to speculate he should be taken #1 by the colts.

Born in Queens, New York, Cosell attended Amherst College where he played basketball. After applying for a job at NFL Films, he was interviewed by founder Ed Sabol at the company’s New Jersey headquarters, and subsequently hired as a producer.

In 1984 Cosell with NFL Films President Steve Sabol created a show titled Monday Night Matchup (now known as NFL Matchup) which was initially hosted by Chris Berman. The show has grown to one of the most respected sports television programs in the industry[4] and is currently hosted by Sal Paolantonio, Ron Jaworski and Merril Hoge.

Cosell co-authored the book The Games That Changed the Game: The Evolution of the NFL in Seven Sundays

Not sure if you are with Cosell or against him, but I call your bluff on you watching film. Watching film is not the same as “NFL Replay” or “Playbook”, which, unless you work for a scouting agency, or are on a coaching staff, is the only “Film” you will get your hands on. Now, what Cosell says is something you can see just by watching him play, and after watching a few games, he’s right. His delivery is shortened just enough to allow a throw from any angle on the run, but, as far as his other abilities? He needs lots of work. This wasn’t an endorsement of who should be taken higher, it was honest analysis and teams can do with it what they will. Seriously though, all of you armchair QB’s need to get your facts straight before bashing somebody. These guys have the job, and you don’t, that obviously tells the rest of the world something.

He is not Cosell’s son.

If he had any type of talent he would be hired by a NFL team.

Russell would need intermediary class in ‘pass on the ribs and chicken bro’ .

This is getting pathetic at this point.

You are an idiot.

Let his team to six straight wins coming off the bench his junior year, first QB in history to beat Nebraska, OU, and Texas in the same season.
Numerous awards and allocades, multi-talented student athlete who is pre-med, set school season and career passing yards despite hundreds of wr drops noted by scouts.

Yes you have an opinion, but not an educated one.

I watch youtube.

This is strange: “Tannehill was very efficient off the boot-action pass game. That will translate very well to the NFL.” I’ve spent over 4 decades hearing that a mobile QB does not translate to the NFL game. Is there a change in the air? If that’s the case, Russell Wilson throws it on the move better than any QB out there. Since his size doesn’t hurt, on the run, I guess his value should jump. Unless it doesn’t count because he’s short. (even though he had the biggest OL in football, NCAA or NFL)

Tannehill is a project. But he can play in a few years.

Why do we care what he has to say?
Because he has watched lots of film?
Everyone reading this has watched lots of film.

This is the truest statement I have read on any post!!

It can be done, but you need to have some decent college experience.
