Summary

Quarterback Rank: #25All Players: #189

Tannehill had a pretty solid rookie year, especially if you consider his surrounding talent. He didn't produce as big of numbers as some of the other rookie quarterbacks but still played well overall. He had just 13 interceptions and scored 14 total touchdowns. He topped 3,000-passing yards and completed 58 percent of his passes. He had just one game that he went over 300 yards and that was a huge performance, throwing for 431 yards in Week 4. He didn't produce big numbers most weeks, though, having seven games with less than 200 yards. But as mentioned, the Dolphins lacked a lot of talent at receiver, which didn't help Tannehill's chances to make plays in the passing. He'll get betters as the Dolphins improve the talent around him. He certainly has the talent and looks to be the franchise quarterback in Miami for years to come. Remember, he didn't start many games in college, either, so his rapid development is encouraging for his future. Tannehill is a big kid with a strong arm that moves around the pocket well and will make plays with his feet. He is pretty accurate for a young quarterback and reads defense a little better than expected.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Tannehill is worth a shot as a No. 2 fantasy quarterback. He has upside in an improving offense. We like his chances to take a pretty good jump this season. We think he could throw for around 3,600 yards and 25 or so touchdowns. He could be a surprise when it is all said and done

Notes

May 22 11:06 am

Miami Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill was sharp during organized team activities Tuesday, May 21. Tannehill had big passes to WRs Brian Hartline and Mike Wallace. TE Dustin Keller was impressed with Tannehill's first practice. "You would think a guy who used to play wide receiver the best thing he does is run the ball," Keller said. "But he puts the ball right on the money and he's a good decision maker, as well."
Fantasy Impact: Tannehill has a chance for a breakout season. He could take a big step forward.

Miami Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland praised QB Ryan Tannehill on the first day of the NFL Draft Combine. 'As I've said before, Ryan's got 35, 36 games under his belt as a starting quarterback combined from a college and pro career,' Ireland said. 'And you'd normally like to have 35 games under your belt as a graduating senior so I still think there's a bunch of upside left in Ryan's potential. I like what I see so far. I love his intangible makeup. I love his athletic skill set. We have a long way to go. He knows that. But he can get a lot better. I'm very confident in that.'

Miami Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland said the team violated their principles in drafting QB Ryan Tannehill as high as they did. "I think the axiom that you go by in scouting is you like to see a quarterback with 30 starts under his belt before he's ready to play, and we kind of violated that, our principle," Ireland said.
