Draft a QB? Empty Draft a QB?

Should this be Miami's #1 priority this season? There's talk New York is tanking on purpose for Darnold. I'm still not sold on Tannehill. He has 70% of the attributes needed. The physical tools but he doesn't have the instincts.

Darnold or Rudolph?

He will be 30 and people will still be saying the same things about him. It has been time to draft a QB of the future for at least 2 years. Problem is, no coach wanted to risk his job on the growing pains of a rookie QB. Gase may just be the guy to say, I want my own guy in here. I will live with the consequences.

I would love to see us draft a QB next year, somewhere in the first three rounds. A true prospect, not a throw away 7th round flyer or undrafted free agent nobody.

However, everything I've read on the topic says the fins won't even consider it. Want to build up the rest of the roster instead and roll with Tannehill.

It's been said before, and it bears repeating, somehow Tannehill has had about 4 consecutive "make or break" years, and there are still so many questions on what he really is compared to a true franchise QB.

I'm really hoping Cutler plays great this season, even though it may be little more than wishful thinking. If it happens, we will sign him long term and we will trade Tannehill, there's no doubt. There are so many QB starved teams we will get at least a 1st or 2nd round pick in return.

Gase has never developed a young QB, and has shown no interest in doing so. I don't think he's about to start. He supposedly took the Dolphins' job in part because of Tannehill, and I think he'll continue to roll with him for better or worse. I think there's zero chance Tannehill gets traded.

As for Cutler, he'll be one and done IMO. I think he retires again regardless of what happens this season.

I say the Fins won't have Cutler OR Tannehill next year. Mark my words. Seriously, somebody keep track of this post.

QB won't matter until they have a line.

Plus, they don't have the front office to draft anyone worth consequence.

My ideal situation would be extend Culter for a year draft QB CUT Tanny.

Trade Tannehill. Use Cutler and draft a rookie

Love the trade tannehill idea but it's one game. Cutler I thought was in command of the offense as he settled in and the game wore on. I thought the play calling limited him and the offense but he did a great job spreading the ball around IMHO. He wasn't really pressured that much and he kept plays alive. he leaned heavily on the underneath which is why Landry will always be a target/checkdown king.

Is it me or did I see Davis in for Steen a whole lot?

No interceptions from Cutler. That might be the biggest stat of the game. Cutler avoids sacks. Tannehill goes down more than a 20$ whore. Shoring up linebackers is still the top priority for the team.

That is my dream scenario. I've pretty much decided Baker Mayfield is the best fit for Gase.

Baker Mayfield sounds like he should be either a race car driver, a country singer or a rodeo cowboy. Wouldn't mind him. I think Rosen and Darnold are higher rated, but can we get them is the question.

Rosen??? Hell, he can't even beat Memphis Razz

Laughing Laughing Laughing at your post BTW because it's so true. I now expect him to show up for camp next year with a wad of tobacco in his mouth driving a monster truck.

I like Mason Rudolph quite a bit. I think Lamar Jackson has a real shot at the next level too, Saturday's game notwithstanding. He's carrying that team a lot further than they should go.

When it comes to QBs the Pac 10/12 and ACC seem to be the way to go. Aside from Eli and Cam, the SEC has churned out a bunch of hot garbage this century. Okay, maybe Cutler's a step above hot garbage Laughing but my point still stands. You're actually better off looking at guys from non-P5 schools than the SEC for franchise QBs these days.

Darnold's got a little bit of Marino in him...confident and tough, stands tall in the face of pressure, quick release, not afraid to throw the ball into tight windows, the game is never too big. I think he's going to be special.

I'm going on the assumption this team finishes 8-8. If that happens then Baker Mayfield in round two is probably the only option and it's an option I really like.

Once again my dream scenario is for Cutler to light it up and Tannehill is traded for two second round picks.

I really think Josh Allen can be a great QB but he needs someone like Gase to bring out the best in his talent. He has some issues. I've watched some of his games, he kinda reminds me of Cutler. No question about the arm but more of the reads and the poor decisions. He could fall to us but it needs to be in the 3rd or maybe late 2nd. We need to shore up the LB position McMillan is going to be back next year and if Alonso can't adjust to his WLB position we will certainly need to add depth.

I'd go all out for Darnold. Hell I'd throw in the Dolphins first 4 picks and Tannehill for that option. It's not like our first four picks ever play anyway

Well this year might be different. Harris is playing, McMillan was slotted to start, Tankersly might get on the field if maxwell keeps playing soft and Godchaux might turn out to be a starter!!!

Only way the top pick gets traded IMHO is if Indianapolis gets the #1 pick which very well could happen. Worst run organization in professional sports. They are what the Bengals used to be. But anyway if Miami made that trade and gave up that many picks it would take years to recover given the aging OL and DL and limited salary cap space.

Yes, they pretty much split time at LG.

I read something about this after the game. Someone inside the org believes Davis can be very good, and is poised to take the starting LG job outright. That would be very good for us.

I don't know why we're even wasting time with Steen...he's just not good. Let Davis learn through trial by fire.
