The odds are very thin for a repeat of that...
Face it dude. We blew it.
Jets and buffalo got better at the qb position and we are stuck with a hobbled qb.

I dont know about the dolphins but treasurecoastphin fan is sure afraid of that....He in love.
Tannehill will not improve a bit or push himself to do better because he has nobody that can take his job but a couple of failture scrubs sitting in the bench.

Didnt even Try? The Bills and Jets Moved up to the Top 5. The Jets gave up a ton. They are a lousy Team with a rookie. Relax.
The Bills had serious fire power with 6 picks in the Top 3 rounds.
Why would we want to compete with them for a postion thats not a need?
Sam your crying because you didnt get your YES! Feel good High for a day draft pick. Relax. Think logically for once and see how improved we are.

And the Dolphins want a better Team for Ryan. We are looking good. No predictions until the off season is over......but we get a few extra Olineman from walk ons and were ever.....this was a great off season.
If Tanny either cannot play this year or goes out with an injury early, will you at least then admit you have made a mistake that will cost us for years to come, Treasure? If Tanny is just able to even play the whole season, I will tip my glass even if we go 2-14. Tanny won't last 6 games if he comes back at all.
We got better too. Our defense got better, as did our offense.
None of the drafted QB's are studs...yet, none of them have done a darn thing...yet. I do get your argument though.
As far as us drafting a QB goes, I wanted us to take one, I wanted Falk all along. The team, for whatever reason didn't agree...one of us will be right and one will be wrong.
Our Secondary and Linebacker groups got quite a bit better, and deeper, our passing game improved a lot as did our running game...we improved as a team.

NOT at all. We still got great players and if we are that bad and get into the top ten next year is another draft. And another after that one. Your argument that we HAD to be a part of this draft class of QBs or there will never be a decent QB again is borderline Nutso. Your obsessed with media soundbites and this QB class. Let it go. Its over. Right now as we speak there are other great QB's playing college ball. They will continue every draft year after year.
GO DOLPHINS!!!!

How well the draft class will do won't be known for a while but two things are for sure, if Tannehill goes down, this team is sunk. Osweiler and Fales have no business starting an NFL game. Secondly, if Tannenbaum, Grier, and Gase think that the DT rotation of Phillips, Godchaux, and Taylor are good enough, they're dumber than I thought they were and anyone who's read any of my previous posts knows my opinion of their intelligence isn't very high.
I have already psycho analyzed you, Treasure. You transfer the necessary loyalty you need to give and receive from your fellow cops on the job to anyone who plays for the Dolphins, particularly the quarterback, the team leader.
If the front office believes Tannehill can play, then it must be on the basis of some doctor's opinion. If they have not put him through rigorous workouts including running then stopping suddenly and shifting off into another direction, then they know nothing about Tannehill's health in terms of being a starting quarterback.
If they didn't and treated this draft on the basis that Tanny would play a full season, then they should not be trusted, in the future, with their own lunch money.
If Tanny doesn't come back or goes down in pre-season or early season, we are up sh*t creek without a canoe.
Moreover, when the 2019 only has one top notched QB, the 2020 has only 3, and the 2021 has only 2 then what??????
Oh, let me answer my own question. We will get one. Why? Because we will have sucked so bad that our record will entitle us to one.
I do...and RT has been cleared for full participation in the off season program. That says that the doctors at least, think he's medically and physically OK for whatever he has to do.
RT has been running, doing stairs, lifting weights and working out. I'm sure there have been increasing stresses placed on his knee since he was cleared and all seems to be OK at the moment. The risk of injury is present for any player at any time regardless of whether they have or have not been hurt in the past.
I wanted a QB as a backup just like you guys did, but we didn't take one...why, I have no Idea. There are reports out there now, that the only two QB's the team was even remotely interested in were Mayfied and Darnold...all of the others we would not have drafted even if they were available to us.
I'm not comfortable with Osweiller if he has to play...but maybe Gase can get him to play better if he has to. In any event, if we had to start our backup we are sunk regardless.

Before TC is tar and feathered, let's see what the future holds with the Dolphins' new recruits. Several appear to be more than just on paper filling holes. I expect Fitzpatrick to be on the field as a starter in no time. His success is dependent on defensive strategy and a willingness to let him handle a variety of match ups.
As for RT, I thought we might take Mason Rudolph, but the FO decided otherwise. RT has a chance to make something of the season provided he is healthy. While I think deep down that his best years are behind him, I could be wrong, and if I'm wrong so what. We have a good outing for the season and work to get better (like everyone else) every year. Give RT a chance and stop belittling TC for his opinion. We know where everyone stands on RT's current skill set.
Overall, I believe this to be one of the best drafts for the Dolphins in a very long time. There is no Jamar Fletcher here.
