Tannehill has steadily improved year after year and he's still relatively new to being a quarterback. I don't see any reason why he can't be a top 8-15 quarterback in the NFL, which is good enough. That's based off his progressive improvements though...We'll see if he can continue to grow this season.
i don't know if i can name 15 QBs that are CLEARLY better than him. he's already in that 15 range IMO. that's essentially middle of the pack or average in this league. fair to say he's at least that.
Average.
That's been my assessment of him.
Except I look at him in a slightly more pessimistic view.
Some might say he's only been playing quarterback for such and such many years,he can get so much better.
I look at it why was he moved away from quarterback after being beat out by a non-NFL prospect for 2 seasons?
Dude went from a number 3 receiver to first round pick in a matter of 18 months.
Like what more do some expect from guy?
Anything more is gravy.
Where's the template for guy like Tannehill?
Guys who changed from other positions to become a good/great quarterback?
Kordell Stewart?
There has to be more?
Also how many other quarterbacks didn't make the leap from average to good/great til their 5th season of starting?
Like Drew Brees? Rich Gannon?
There has to be more? I'm drawing a blank.
Also what elite traits does Tannehill have?
Most of those top 10 guys have at least one elite trait. Arm strength, accuracy , pocket awareness, scrambling ability, intelligence, running ability etc.
Some elite trait?
I just don't see any of those elite traits in Tannehill.
Maybe Gase can turn him into top 10-12 caliber quarterback, I just don't see it unless he's on a super stacked team.
,it'd be a bigger deal if they had his Vikes jersey at his Packers HOF exhibit
