Tannehill a top 10 pick?

NFP has him as the #16 rated player.

This is significant because Cleveland, Jacksonville (I doubt they reach for another rookie QB) and Miami pick before us. Both have adequate veterans who could play until the raw QB develops. A player could drop to #9 if he can get into the top 10.

Secondly, a team like Seattle, KC, or even DENVER (If they sign Manning and trade The Golden Calf of Bristol, this would be VERY smart, considering Tannehill is 2 years away--think Aaron Rogers) might trade with us. A team would want to leapfrog the mass of teams needing a QB that follow us in the draft.

I think it serves the Panthers well if Tannehill's stock continues to rise.

Think Miami

I think the Browns are going to make a big play for Flynn. Miami will only have to worry about Seattle moving to 7 and cutting them out. No need for the Panthers to be involved. Just my opinion. When you think trade down, think Buffalo.

If Miami were to pass on him, then Seattle should not have any problem with him dropping in their lap.

Am the only one who thinks this guys is overrated?

I think he is not a first round pick, but everyone is singing his praises--say in 2 years he is a franchise QB. I still do not see top 10. Most of those teams have immediate needs.

Stirs, I see Flynn in Miami due to his relationship with Philbin. Cleveland may wait until the second round and take Weeden. If Miami misses Manning and Flynn, they are the prime for Tannehill

If somehow Trent Richardson and Tannehill go before us, we are getting a player to drop to us. I also see a player like Floyd (WR) possibly sneaking into the fold. Reiff is another who could go to the Rams at #6. Probably not Claiborne, but a player like Coples could fall to us.

QB driven league so they generally go higher than they are rated. Look at last years draft in first round. Ponder, Gabbert, etc.

QB's go higher than they ought, and RB's go much lower than they ought

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
