QB Roulette - you going to take a spin???
http://www.thephinsider.com/2016/7/22/12255498/would-the-dolphins-spin-the-quarterback-roulette-wheel
Apparently ESPN did this thing about a QB roulette wheel...would you spin the wheel in hopes that you could get a better QB? You could get Aaron Rodgers...or you could get fucking Mark Sanchez or some other asshat.
So, what would you do - stick with Tannehill, or spin the wheel?
Me? I'm spinning the fuck out of that wheel, and hoping I get Rodgers, Luck, Carr, Bortles, Bridgewater, Winston, Mariota, Cousins...to name a few. Obviously, if you spin, you want to get someone at least as good as Tannehill. So even if you get someone at the same level, taking the spin makes sense. I think there's enough QBs at or above Tannehill's level that the spin is the way to go.
Tannehill has been a middle of the pack QB, at best. It's hard to argue against that. Some people love his "ceiling", but if you can't reach the ceiling who cares?? Bottom line for me - I'm simply not sold on Tannehill, and I'm not sold on Gase as some kind of QB miracle worker. If I had a chance to improve my lot, I'd take it.

Hell, even if I got Sanchez on the spin it would still be worth it because the Fins could just as easily miss the playoffs with him. If anything, getting a worse QB would be better in the long run, because it would lead to a top 5 pick and Tannenbaum might actually not trade it for once.
BTW I'm kinda disappointed that this isn't a real thing. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the net. I'd love for each of us to spin it and see who we got.
Also, if you want to see rampant homerism that would make even some people on the "other" site blush with shame, just read the comments I love how these people argue that no QB would take this team to the playoffs, not even realizing how much that destroys their "Keep Tannehill 'cause he could be SPECIAL!" argument. Then you've got the guy who already has Tannehill throwing 40 TDs this season

Sorry Tanny after your rookie year I would not have spun the wheel.
Heading into year 5? Hell yes I'm spinning that thing with the force of a thousand suns.
