Really chaps my hide that we never even got a chance at either Mayfield or Murray.
No doubt. His pocket instincts can't be coached.
Bro - the Dolphins don't have a quality O-line or consistent WR core. You think this story ends any better than it did for the Cardinals?
Except they are the Cards. Looks like they're sending a 2nd round draft pick for Rosen.
As a University of Arizona alumn - I watched plenty of Pac12 ball. Both he and Darnold were a couple of the most over-hyped, overrated QB's to...
God help this effin' franchise if they kick the tires on Josh Rosen.
I'm scared of the same thing. What a long two years too.

Best case - Kyler Murray slips to the Raiders, to whom the Dolphins send Xavien Howard, a 1st, and a 3rd to move up. Couldn't even tell you...

I compared Tannehill to Rube Baker in "Major League 2". Rosen is the quintessential over-opinionated gas bag.
It's actually the best spot for him given that Mariota has been the pillar of underachievement. So looks like it worked out for both parties.
Thank God it's finally over.
Teddy B is a chickensh*t.
It could be argued that he was every bit the pass rusher JT was as far as Dolphin lineage goes. Yet, I feel like he was neutralized too much in...
He was the perfect example of everything wrong with the Gase regime. They plucked him off the Patriots PS squad and mostly just used him to...
Just say no to Rosen. Both he and Darnold were annointed false gods of the Pac-12, but each never lived up to the hype. Both are turnover...

Why? To not have to compete with other teams for the services of that player - that's why. There's always an opportunity for him to renegotiate...

Never realized Murray shares the same agent as our newly minted head coach.
Of course your argument conveniently leaves out his natural feel for the pocket and inability to process the game the same way Brady does. The...
Lawrence is irrelevant. He wouldn't be coming out until 2021.
And we have a bunch of Stans who's hate knows no bounds. I imagine they average at least 5 hate tweets a day at the man, even after he retires....

He won't get it. Great job cbrad! You always manage to apply real meaning to stats - especially when adjusting for era.
Not at all. It was to illustrate how empty the phrase "Tannehill is the best QB we've had since Marino." It literally means nothing.
Please name me the renowned QB's he edged out while benefiting from playing under the same coach and offense he ran in college. Nobody is going...
I know one thing and that's Jay Fiedler quarterbacked one of my favorite Dolphins comebacks/wins of all time up in Denver on snowy 10/13/2002. He...

You're talking about 8 out of every 10 QB's. It's not earth shattering news and shouldn't deter a team if they have the right offensive coaches....
God I wanted May on the Dolphins. Ugggggghhhhhhh
Sorry, but Foles has proven himself on the NFL's biggest, brightest stage. He gets more benefit of the doubt that Tannehill does. It's not even...
I'm guessing that's why he always hid behind his hat. I think he genuinely has a mental health issue and while we probably shouldn't pile on -...
We don't know how 2019-2020 will shape up for our O-line.
This conversation is moot. John DeFilipo got hired as the OC for the Jags. It's sending a very clear signal that the Jags will likely make an...
That is easily one of the most hilarious things I have ever seen on social media. :chuckle::chuckle::chuckle::chuckle::chuckle::chuckle::chuckle:

Just like all the players who left the Dolphins to go to the Patriots were supposed to become all-pro's right? Stop it with this already. LOL
BB disciples haven't shown sh- in this league as head coaches and I wanted the choice to be Richard. One thing's for sure though, the Dolphins...

You can thank Gase for that. Stubborn jackass failed to nab a QB in a QB-rich draft.

Does it make the distinction that the Suh money isn't available until after June 1st though?
They weren't gonna save that much: "Cutting Tannehill in 2019 would save the Dolphins around $15.4 million instead of the $18.7 million...
Are these numbers correct? Started out $19 million over the cap. Tanny Restructure = $11.2 savings savings Landry Trade = $15.9 million savings...
Curious to see if we'll sniff around Eric Ebron.
At what price? Remember this kid had two ACL tears in the NFL (one on each knee).
Exactly. They knew we needed the cap space and his skills alone don't warrant an #11/#4 swap.
Yup. Bless that man.
Wilson's contract won't force the team to salary dump at a later date. That's what a $16 million wideout would do though.
Recall the Defcon 5 some elevated to when Ajayi was traded. Kenyon Drake quickly shut that up.
I'm no Gase defender - but he's been harping on that most of the previous two years and always seemed to implicate the same guys i.e....
Ya no, this has nothing to do with that. The Chief's picked up Watkins to take the coverage away from Tyreke Hill running routes on the boundary...
Your list of Wilson penalties compared to Landry's is laughable - not even remotely on the same planet when in regards to IQ and keeping...
In fact just looking over Landry's career penalties with this team. These aren't the traits of a high IQ football player, they're typical of an...
He had just about as many knucklehead moments as he did big plays for this team. Please remember - he chose MONEY over this franchise.
Fault is the wrong word - it's his limitation as a receiver. That's why we're not paying him $16 million for his services.
That play is Jarvis Landry in a nutshell.
The hell do we care about a WR group from 2014 when he was a rookie? There's really no much football talk going on - it's just seething sarcasm.
Wait ...... you're asking these guys to wait on final contract numbers? Good luck with that one - they're on suicide watch already.
Little do you recognize you're reinforcing my point.
I can't see them NOT making a move for a legit pass catching TE. None of this will work without it ...... well unless they plan on getting more...
Who else were they gonna throw the ball to? Julius Thomas? Parker? Caroo? Some of you overlook the obvious here. Landry was being force fed...
They plan on spreading the ball around instead of force-feeding it to Landry for an entire year. Wilson has the potential to be a cheaper Landry...
Check right below my avatar - most definitely NOT a fan consumed with blind faith. I do happen to like this Wilson move a lot though.
WR's averaging $4 million per year (albeit Watkins just got a big pay day as will Thielen eventually). [IMG]
We're just gettin' started.
Honestly man - I don't think you watched Wilson. He's going to surprise you. Did you see some of the numbers Travis posted on him? Sample size...
Your numbers are wrong. Amendola is only guaranteed 8.25 million.
Didn't seem to bother him in the Super Bowl on the world's biggest stage.
If anyone begins to b*tch about his salary on Miami compared to NE - they clearly don't understand that players take cuts to play for the...
Every time I watched that team he caught my eye. Glad to have him.
Well that sucks.
You're not seriously comparing Suh to Dan Marino are you? Marino could freelance because he WAS the offense. Suh is just a guy and one who...
The kid has amazing footwork, which is why I'm so high on him (along with his passion for the game) and what separates upper echelon QB's from the...
I'm assuming that for a QB to be successful in Buffalo (especially come Nov/Dec) they would need a guy with serious arm talent throwing into that...
This move right now has absolutely nothing to do with idiocy - the word is "REALITY". Suh was owed $28 million this year, $26 million next year,...
Trying to stack a defense with the right pieces when one single defensive tackle is sucking up the salaries of multiple players is tough business....
Howso? Suh has been a Dolphin for 3 years and his overall impact has been questionable to say the least ....... at least in terms of value you're...
Is it "falling asleep" or was there genuine trepidation?
He's not a gamebreaker and you don't pay a guy $16 million per if he isn't. I do want to say that he was a damn good blocker for a WR - which...
Yup, the playcalling and Jay Stinkler fixating on Jarvis the whole year.
Thank God. Been hoping for this for a while.
And to think we ACTUALLY offered him $13 million for that. He priced himself off the Dolphins.
Look no further than the signing of Jay Cutler. We all know who spearheaded that stank bullsh*t. Also didn't help that Parker never...
While I don't mind Landry leaving ...... Why in the hell did we tag him if we could'e let him walk on his own and gotten a compensatory 3rd...
Not if this team ACTUALLY acquires a Tight End worth a damn.
Makes you wonder more about QB being the pick. This screams out loud that they don't want a diva like Landry corrupting their development and...
Bye bye Diva!
Arguably one of the worst contracts this franchise has ever given to a player at a position that can be neutralized out by opposing blocking...
Back up off the ledge bruh.
There's a fine line between maxing out your potential income and being delusional.
If I'm the Giants, I'm trading him immediately. There is nothing that man can do that is worth $20 million per. It also shows you where his...
Don't forget the overreacting media coverage. What an embarrassment that whole situation was.
What a great plan - willingly hanging onto an aging player with a deteriorating hip.
There's no doubt he improved, but it didn't happen in a vacuum. He was also the benefactor of a very soft portion of the schedule and Jay Ajayi....
Makes you wonder if this franchise actually has the balls to break out of their comfort zone, draft Mayfield, and potentially trade Tannehill....
I appreciate the work. Takes time to put that kind of thing together. I just don't appreciate the tone he takes when anyone questions his work...
There's a small part of me that appreciates their optimism. The main problem is that we're no longer talking about a 24 or a 25 year old. We're...
Good question. No way to know really. Albeit his "chance" for overall success would have been higher due to the foundation in place over...
As an aside and random musing - I love standard deviations. They are a core part of my approach to markets in my trading. Changed my whole...
He's been inconsistent everywhere he's QB'd. After a while, you are what you are.
Runs like runningback? Are you kiddng me? Tannehill is a long strider. You don't have to be a runningback to make a quick move in the pocket,...
You do realize Adam Gase was hired in January 2016 right? Perhaps you forget to make a GIF of it.
Speaking of excuse-making...... Enoughs enough with Gase and that massive ego of his. The whole "I didn't want the offense to revert, so I...
It's beyond bias at this point. It's one of the most QB-rich drafts ever and we got people clamoring about 8 games of an entire career rather...
I believe he meant that you shouldn't bring a black light around his pantaloons. LOL
Yeeeeeeah! Bring on the next backup QB for you to crucify!
He's got nothing left. It's time for him to move on to the next phase in life.
I said it was a slap in the face when Cutler was brought in knucklehead.
You're undermining the respect of the locker room that the man had. Enough to at have been named a team MVP at one point (2011). This wasn't...
The Cutler signing was a slap in the face for Moore. It was also an extension of Gase's lack of respect towards the guy to be so desperate as to...
I've watched the entire playoffs and not about to stop at the Super Bowl. I like football in general. So while my Dolphins team is trash - I can...
#PLEASE
Tackling #'s encompass "pure stats"? Watch a game for once. He's not a player smart enough to make up for his lack of size at the position. He...
If Parker had developed the way the team envisioned - they wouldn't even be having these discussions. Tells you everything you need to know...
One of my biggest gripes about the guy since he's been Dolphin was his inability to score. Even with the 9 TD's I'm still not sold, I mean let's...
Not a fan of Josh Allen after what I watched this year. Don't see it at all - he's definitely over-hyped.
This thread. LOL
He looked good once he hit stride. The question is would NFL teams have adjusted to him in year 2?
They should strongly consider taking one. Tannehill's now on the other side of 30. IMO he'll need at least a year to get timing/rhythm back....
LOL ...... self-ban? Honestly, in my eyes the season's been over for a while and I haven't felt compelled to participate in the endless circular...
Have Dirty Landry and all of these other analysts ever been seen in the same room before? [IMG]
Thing is we didn't even buy low. We drafted Parker pretty high. Sometimes people need to learn when to move on from a depreciating asset instead...
You say that as if there's an inevitable "high" coming. Sometimes it's just not there between the ears. Ya you bought low, but then cutting bait...
It's because he has great feet.
That Bronco offense is TERRIBLE. Hard to imagine this game playing out the same without their defense being so gassed. Positives continue to...
Moore drew two insurmountable games for his starts this year against the Ravens and Pats and he doesn't have the liberty of developing chemistry...
EDIT: Nevermind. Not the same.
That's kind of the underlying problem though - if he's hoping on talent covering up for a possible lack of coaching.
Outright terrible pocket management by Moore today. I can't wait for a fresh new QB room already.
That's why he and Cutler get along. Their dismissiveness is very similar. I can practically see the "Doooooooooon't care" audibly replaying...
No offense but your comment is ridiculous. You said "Whoever put this O-line together" and you're talking about today's game. They're playing...
I'm not disagreeing with the personnel decisions, but again we're talking about backups.
While some tout Gase as this bright NFL mind - to me he hasn't shown that he knows how to coach these players up. His personality doesn't seem...
I think you're asking for a little too much. No team fields all-pros across the entire line and then backups who step in and don't miss a bit.
Dude, Sam Young and Jesse Davis are lined up on the right side. Those weren't the projected starters for 2017.
I know I didn't buy into the hype. It had fools gold written all over it based on them having a poor record vs. winning teams. At this point...
Jesus Drake. This is an embarrassment.
