Really I think this is a good example of how much he struggled during the second half of this season. He seemed to lose confidence. His ball placement is erratic, his receivers aren't getting separation, he's questioning his reads. Sometimes he takes charge of the play at the line at looks great, but he's not controlling the game like he was in his first 10 or so A&M starts. He's misreading the coverage waaay too often to be comfortable. In this game, he looks more like Osweiler, but without the ability.

I think the dysfunction at A&M this year probably caused Tannehill to develop some bad habits and make some questionable decisions, but when you compare him to a guy like Foles who played in all sorts of dysfunction the last two years and still completes 67-70% of his throws, Tannehill just doesn't grade out as a top two round guy.

He's my 7th rated QB right now, and I'm not rating Weeden (who is a better player) because of his age.[/quote]

Tannehill didn't even play QB until he got to college. No way would I touch this guy.

Re: 2012 NFL Draft-QB Prospects (Chapter 5)
 

I think out of all the guys in the draft outside of Luck and RG3, Foles has the most upside. He needs to be coached up and his mechanics need work, but he'd be my guy. If they want to try and win now, perhaps Weedon is the guy. But if we draft a QB, I hope it's one of the two.

What are you talking about? He played QB in high school

Re: 2012 NFL Draft-QB Prospects (Chapter 5)
 

Let's draft Blackmon in the first round then Weeden in the second!

Re: 2012 NFL Draft-QB Prospects (Chapter 5)
 

I am just not impressed by Tannehill and Cousins at all.
Tannehill seems to get flustered once the pocket collapses and has trouble thinking on his feet.

I'd be down for that now

I doubt Blackmon falls to #6 and I'm worried Weeden won't last to the second round.

He won't last until March, when I'll be Weeden my garden.

You mean you don't think we'll pick him due to age? I'm coming around on the idea of picking Weeden. He seems like a winner. Hopefully he's no Chris Weinke.
