Mimms? That's the guy you are hanging your argument on? Really?

You are citing guys like Greenwood, Siler, Sheffield, Studebaker and others as reasons we should take another OT and you think its fun to throw stones when you live in that crazy world of Okung and the magical Reiff?

That's your first round wish list?
Talk about dumbassery.

Tannehill has similar experience in college to guys like:
Aaron Rogers
Joe Flacco
Tom Brady
Cam Newton
Mark Sanchez (even though he isnt exactly the guy I would hang this argument on)
At quarterback, you can either ply the position or you cant.
Tannehill has the tools and work ethic to be considered a possible 3rd overall selection.
If your return argument is that "he is just being propped up by the weak class of quarterbacks" then, why isn't anyone else seemingly soaring up charts?
Saying Mark Barron was only a third rounder prior to this year isnt exactly telling it how it is, either.
His stock went up, sure....but he was always thought of as a high second rounder prior to this last year where he played a lot more in coverage and faired quite well, showing that he is a true dual threat safety and those are worth their weight in gold in todays NFL.
