Miami will draft a WR Michael Floyd or S Mark Barron

I’m simply embarassed by all these draft gurus who run around and try to prop up a kid just because they see a team that has a need. Tannehill, are they serious. This is a kid who has only played 2 years at QB in college, he was the 21st ranked dual qb recruit coming out of HS where he didn’t even make 1st team all conf. in Texas 4-A(not even 5-A). His TD/INT ratio has been near 2 to 1 in his college career(3 to 1 is the ratio most really good ones carry), and that’s in a conference that’s not known for tight defensive coverage(Big 12). Please don’t compare him to Tim Tebow, who was All Amer. in HS, Mr. Football in FL, and US Amry All Amer. and we won’t even get into college. Look at the tape, it’s about RESULTS. They want to take 2 years and speculate future result, will we all know about “speculation” that’s why I’m paying $4 at the pump now. Those who “overdraft” for need, usually find themselves in a big hole down the line.

Jaguars are privy to Dolphins secret information via an “unnamed source.”

Much rather take Kuechly then trade back into the late first for Weeden, who is an immediate starter.

One thing is for sure…the “Dol-fans”, and especially the moronic local talk shows, will blast Ireland for taking Tannehill….or they will blast him for NOT taking Tannehill! Good Luck Jeff!

@gmen1987,

Thanks to your G-Men for saving the legacy of the one true perfect season in 1972. And thanks for beating the Pats twice. Love it. But you Giant fans are even bigger tools. Fact.

Ha! So let me get this straight: the Jaguars, who have publicly stated that they want to trade down, are to be believed when they say the Dolphins will take Tannehill at 8?

By: latenightroach

latenightroach — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 06:21:32 +0000

So I guess the Jags think they have a crystal ball. I bet the the Dolphins want to trade down too. Tannehill isn’t a top ten pick & everyone knows it.

Ireland is very smart man and will make the best decision for the Fins organization, not what’s best for the fans or the ticket sales. He wants to win, and if Tannehill’s talent doesn’t equal to more WINS, then he’ll draft the Best Available Player.

How about that?!!

In order to believe this story, you have to believe that someone in Miami whispered their draft intentions to the team drafting one spot before them. YEAAAAAHHH RIIIIGGGHHHTT.

Clearly you expect me to choose the wine in front of me?

Two possible things could happen.

1. Miami will pass on Tannehill. Miami will draft another offensive lineman. Tannehill will become a big hit for the team that drafts him. Miami still doesn’t have a franchise QB. Stephen Ross continues to get turned down more than a bed at a Holiday Inn. Dolphin fans continue to be the biggest tools in sports.

2. Miami takes Tannehill. Tannehill flops. Fans don’t show up anymore on game day. Stephen Ross continues to get turned down more than a bed at a Holiday Inn. Dolphin fans continue to be the biggest tools in sports.

Fins should take a good position player.

They’ll be able to get Barkley next year…

By: bobby4413

bobby4413 — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 02:41:51 +0000

It doesn’t have to be one way or the other. If Tannehill is for real the Fins win if they get him. If someone trades up and he’s gone, Ireland should still be able to get a great player at 8. Ireland’s issue is he can’t draft in the middle rounds. That and he had to work for Jackanus Parcells!

Finally, an upside of not having to tune in until the last pick of the third round. Not much of an upside, but it’s something.

Unless they’re operating on a higher level of misdirection, which would entail creating the impression they don’t want him and hoping that someone will interpret that to mean they do want him, when in reality they don’t want him.

Give Ross/Ireland credit. Whatever the fire really is…it is utterly obscured by smoke. No one knows what Miami is doing…and that is exactly what you want as a GM.

I frankly agree with Tannehill assessments. He’s a product of hype.

Jacksonville’s gamble is sound…but they’re picking the wrong name. They should have leaked that Miami wants Melvin Ingrim. If any team moves up to 7 it will be the Jets worried that Miami wants him.

Both Tannehill and Weeden, possibly Cousins will be off the Board in the 1st. It is insane how valuable the position has become. The reason is because the Veteran Free Agent market is filled with overpriced mediocre talent. The P. Manning thing was an incredible event that won’t happed again for decades. Seriously, if Weeden was 23 yrss. old Teams would have traded weeks ago with the Vikes for not Tannehill.

How many page hits did this story get? Aren’t there other draft stories going on at the moment? Tannehill to the Dolphins has become too big of a story. Tim Tebow is upset… Peyton Manning is upset… Brett Favre is threatening to come out of retirement!!

Tannehill is a huge reach and will show the idiocy of the Dolphins. Matt Moore is better!!! Matt Barkley or Landry Jones would be a better reach NEXT year! Fire Ireland and sell the team Ross!!! The NFL would be better off!!! Oh, by the way Mister Ross… Is your mom a prostitute??? I need say more… Idiot!!!!

billsfaninmiami — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 01:11:55 +0000

Truth is…. Ross and Ireland don’t know if Christ was crucified or run over by a freekin motorcycle.
You guys should hear some of the chatter in Miami. Constant run of punch lines.
Tannehill better be the Second Coming of Marino or the Dolfans will start believing in like………. Jacksonville or Tampa Bay.

i don’t buy into the seahawks wanting a 1st round qb. if flynn doesn’t look good this year, maybe next year they go for one. but i think they’ll give flynn this year without adding pressure and controversy from the bench.

The team that trades up to get Richardson is the going to be the clear winner, not Tannehill and I bet every team knows that.
