From what I could tell, I dont think Tannehill is in need of major mechanical overhaul at all.

He has a compact, quick release and has good footwork.

What he lacks is experience.

I don't think he should start his first year, but I don't think he needs to sit for a lot more than that, either.

One thing is for sure.

There isn't much this team did over the last few years that a rookie quarterback couldn't do.

No, it isn't a big adjustment, but that is why it can be so easy to fall back into the old familiar habit.

I think it all depends on the mentality of the player.


Look at Manning. He was thrown to the wolves, sucked his first year, then has owned since.

Some guys never recover from that.


What did Matt Ryan do his first year as a starter? I'm curious and can't remember.

Hey Direckshun word is Wright had 16% body fat at the combine which is a huge red flag. Some teams have put a 3rd round grade on him. He would be great value in the second

First year, Matty Ice completed 61.1% 3,440 yrds 7.93ypa 16td 11int 87.7rtg

Pretty solid, not spectacular numbers. Little better than Dalton's imo
58.1% 3,398yds 6.59 20td 13int 80.4rtg

Interestingly, they were both QBs on teams that were horrible the year before and lead them to a first round playoff loss to eventual SB participants. Unfortunately, every team Matt Ryan has lost to in the playoffs has advanced to the SB. Ouch.

That'd be awesome if he fell that far.
