+ ST Gunner/Returner. It's a third of the game, my friends.

89 Jeff Fuller WR TAMU 6' 4" 215
+ Total opposite of that WR whose name shall not be mentioned. Reliable target, but no YAC.

121 Audie Cole ILB NCSt 6' 5" 239
+ Tough-as-nails inside backer who can cover tall, fast TEs.

153 DeAngelo Peterson TE LSU 6' 4" 243
+ Pass-catchin' token TE taken

184 Matt Reynolds OT BYU 6' 6" 325
+ Clean-livin' anchor of brotherhood that thought sacks were sins.

216 Chris Galippo ILB USC 6' 2" 250
+ Backer/ST depth. I don't know why this guy is available this late.

Tannehill is intriguing with the size/arm/athleticism combo, but he seems to really lack QB skills. I don't think I could take such a high risk pick in the 1st round. What are the chances that he is an upgrade over Schaub at any point in the next 3 years? For that matter is he better than Yates in the next 2 years? For a team with a chance to win, I don't think I could spend a 1st rounder on a guy who won't play soon and may not ever be good. I'd trade the 1st rounder to someone interested in Tannehill before drafting him.
