Miami Dolphins 2012 NFL Draft Grades
QB Ryan Tannehill BThis is a boom or bust pick. Normally I give these picks a C in the first round (an average of an A and an F), but I’m giving the Dolphins a B. Tannehill is a better fit for the Dolphins than anyone because they have Mike Sherman as their offensive coordinator and because they have two stopgap quarterback so they can ease Tannehill into action.
