The fact that can keep the offense intact and use their high picks on a pass rusher and IOL is huge.
 
Okay. I say keep him but dont break the bank. 1 good year doesn't deserve that type of money. franchise him if you need too

You said that you hoped he would get hurt in the 2nd half of last week’s game... :disbelief:
 
Every game a part of me is waiting on "reality" to set in and Tannehill come crashing down.

Even Pickpatrick looked like a superhero for a handful of games last season.. then he lived up to his name.

But he looks legit to me. I think this is who he is as a qb. He may have shown flashes in Miami and never quite got there, but I think he fits here.
 
Henry and Tanny are killing it and helping each other out.

Linebackers on opposing teams are really struggling againts us right now.

Yeah, let's just ignore the best, most consistent QB play this franchise has seen since, um, well, a long fucking time.

You have to extend him. No idea what a rookie will turn into. Plus opportunity cost, using a 1st on a QB takes away from other positions. Extend Tannehill, and get another pass rusher and IOL, then some depth.
 
We haven't had a franchise QB since McNair. Tanny is the best chance we are going to get one in the near future. I don't think Tanny is going to be willing to take a short term deal, its going to be commitment here or somewhere else. You have to pull the trigger and if he bombs out later it is the chance you have to take. Are other option is we draft a rookie with what is now going to be mid to late pick and that to me is a greater gamble.
 
It's hard to argue that we shouldn't re-sign him. But it's hard for me to believe a guy who has been in the league 8 years is all the sudden going to be a top 10 QB, so hopefully he doesn't expect to get paid like one.

Maybe Adam Gase is just the worst thing since coleslaw, and tanny is fine

Did you watch the games he played? You would know the story if you did. Awful OK - historically bad. Rotating coaches..

Would you believe me if i told you there was a vast amount (maybe even majority) of knowledgeable Dolphin fans that understood Tannehill REALLY was this good?

He’s not “all of a sudden” good. he was in purgatory playing for the worst OLs, the WORST front iffice, the worst OCs, the worst head coaches and some seasons the WORST “star” WR (im talking you, Mike Wallace)

He was a warrior and class act through it all.

Nope, THill is simply an uber talented, uber ACCURATE qb. If any here think he’s sticking around for a short term “bridge”, you dont get it. One team is going to make RT a rich man with at least a 5yr guarantee. Maybe TN, maybe not.
 
It’s not required to have a “top 10” QB to win.

Tannehill is good. Our franchise has sucked at drafting/developing QBs.

That’s sounds like easy math to me. Sign Tannehill to be the guy. MM walks, we need another backup. My suggestion on another thread was to see the cost of AJ Mccarron. He’s a FA and after a failed starting opportunity, followed by a quiet backup job, I don’t think he’d be very costly.

Draft pass rush.
 
Is Tannehill going to get a deal similar to Foles? His is four-years, $88M.

Foles was a Super Bowl MVP and is a year younger but I think we can expect a deal for Tannehill will be in the four-year, $80-$85M range with most of it guaranteed.

If Tannehill averages $20M a season, he’d rank 19th in NFL QB salary.

I think he gets more than Foles but not to the $30 mil range.

4 yrs /100 mil.

Probably right. Signing bonus and guaranteed money play into it as well.

You can bet the Jags have regrets signing Foles. They’re stuck with him until 2021 because of the cap hit.
 
Per PFF, Tannehill has had above average grades almost every year in the league. He always put up big numbers but played with and for terrible teams and coaches.
 
IMO it would be insane not to just franchise tag Tannehill. The list of players who "broke out" after age 30 and then stayed good is... not long.

Need to see it for another year before I would want to commit. The Jaguars already regret the Foles deal and will be screwed for at least 2020 because of the cap implications of it.

Tag Tannehill and then pay him at this time next next year if he's still playing this well. No reason to rush into this.
