Lol @ The Browns...

Uh...I thought they said McCoy was their guy? If that were remotely true, why would they have Tannehill visit?

I'm going out on a limb here and say they are genuinely interested in Tannehill. I hope they take him too. For obvious reasons.

McCoy hasn't showed anything, well for me anyway, that states he's starting level. Don't blame them if look at QB's in the draft.

If they do take Tannehill, then the chain reactions will fall almost perfectly for the panthers.

The wage cap pretty much throws everything we know about the top half of the draft out the window. 2 years ago Tannerhill probably is a 2nd round pick. Now top 5 isn't out of the question. God I love the NFL. Personally I think he's this years Gabert (which to toot my own horn I was one of the few that said he was at best a 2nd round prospect) but who knows. I'd bet he is gone before we pick either to them or the Phins.

How do you figure? How does the Browns taking Tannehill at 4 help us at all?

I concur. He's very similar to Gabba gabba.

As far as why this would help us, it's simple. Bucs would have to chose Richardson. Meaning Claiborne would drop to us.

It very well be gamesmanship.

Convice other teams that you are interested in Tannehill....therefore any team really interested in Tannehill may think they need to trade up with you to get him.

Not really that hard to understand.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
