I said this in the other thread and I'll say it again, if we sign Manning (which we won't) we have to take Tannehill.
If Manning is healthy, we wouldn't be in position to draft a quarterback that is worth a shit for some time and Tannehill could be the perfect guy to groom. Favre/Rogers2
If Tannehill is off the board when we pick, Richardson would be the next best pick.
Richardson isn't just a great runner/punisher, he is a really good pass protector and would help protect Manning and keep the defense honest against him.
With Albert locking down the LT spot in a contract year, getting Moeaki back (assuming he doesn't get re-injured) and upgrading the right tackle spot, that would significantly upgrade our pass protection.
Honestly, if Richardson somehow falls to us...we really can't pass up on him.
Jones will be gone, as will Battle. Charles will be a ?
