Mike "The Franchise Killer" Tannenbaum would take Drew Locke over other QBs in this year's draft. Based upon history, that means Locke will stink as a pro. There is no one's opinion that I have less faith in than Mike the Tannen Bum's. Locke will be the next Mark Sanchez. A GM could base his entire strategy on taking players that Tannenbum would not take and vice versa.

ANY QB? You dont even know Locks Strengths and weaknesses? Arm strength? Accuracy? Feet? Without looking it up.....did you know his size, what kind of system hes played in?
Yahhhh!!!! THE FIRST QB to be drafted at number 13 (even the Second assuming that it is at 13) is most likely to be good.
Stay away from gambling of any kind Treasure.
You basically don't even understand the concept of odds.
BTW....also.........if you walk in an area where a crane is moving a heavy object overhead....might not be a good thing to walk under even though the chances of crane failure may be very small.
You DO know that sometimes the favorites at the race track do often lose.
The fact is that you have to play the odds with the draft and everything else.
You take the best player available but that can only be judged by the present.
It can't be judged by the future because no one really knows what the future holds.
But that doesn't mean that when an opportunity, like the first QB in this draft (meaning that since none of the other QBs have been taken that you have your opportunity to pick ANY QB available in the draft) comes to you at number 13, you pass on it just because some number 1 picks have failed in the pass.
Tell you what though, the lower you go in the draft at ANY POSITION, THE more likely you are to see failure.
That's also the way life acts, Treasure. The more you have to choose from, the better odds you have of choosing the right thing.
Boy...whew!! I hope that you are simply trying NOT TO SEE rather than being unable to see.
YOU do know to make the best pick anywhere... racetrack , cards, AND THE DRAFT... .you need a certain bit of knowledge. With QBs its everything I listed above. You have ZERO knowledge.
Just.....if others pick him in the first round odds are hes good.
You have to see what a moron you sound like? THATS.....LOL.

This is not a great QB class. Hes being flaunted in the first round because pickins are slim. Miami Dolphins Pick Lock you will be wishing we had Tannehill back.
The difference between both of you and me?
If we did pick Locke, I'd immediately be his biggest fan. Not hope or wish for him to fail to prove a point.

RESPONSE: Treasure, I know that you're mad at me but do me a tremendous favor.
Tell me. If we pick Haskins at 13, would you be HIS biggest fan?
Have you ever watched the two QBs? Or do you just see whos at the Top of the list of Pundits?
If you did for a second you would see both QBs have similarities to Tannehill.
Haskins is a 1 year starter like Tannehill. Not much experience. Is a shorter then Tannehill and not nearly as athletic.Cant run so defense wil be much more atune to him if he doesnt learn to get the ball off at NFL speed. Also he starts from the shotgun primarily and will have to adapt to being behind a center. Sound familiar?
Lock is extremely inconsistent. Can bomb it , but misses easy ones . IMO he has no read of the field, misses players that are open. Hes in the top 3-5 becuase hes a great athlete (sound familiar?) but his Pro day was amazing. Doesnt communicate well with teamates on the field.... A 56.9 completion percentage in college!!That doesnt bother you? Of course not....hes in the first round right?
Unlike Tannehill Hes been caught cheating on academic tests because hes just not that bright at times.
But hes at the Top.... WHY? Becuase its not that great a class bro. Listen Learn. Thats your biggest problem. Your a intelligent person but you think you know it all. Some of the smartest people I know are also the dumbest. THATS YOU TO A TEE. All books no common sense.
No. But I am a problem solver. I do attack issues with common sense. I try not to let my emotions ever make an ass of me and I make educated opinions. Go to your TV. Say " NFL DRAFT" and you are showered with analyst reports, mock drafts and profiles. Plenty of magazines. I bought Lindys and Athlon sports. Tons of Dolphins info on the web.
So there is really no excuse to just make uneducated claims like you and Chyrene does. In fact I'd say the both of you are more caught up in trying to prove me wrong then what's better for the Dolphins. Grow the F up already.
I remember back in time lindys had a player named jarett ions as a future star...and boy did he turned into a bust.....those magazines dont know jack...they just make so many prwdictio s that they have to hit on some.
