There will be another QB that jumps into the top 10 range. There always is, unfortunately Ryan Tannehill is the only option as to who's going to make that jump.
My problem with Tannehill is his pocket presence, he essentially looks dumb. He's got the arm, body, strength, speed, accuracy to be a SOLID pro, but he forces himself into pressure way too often. I understand his supporting cast isn't very good aside from Fuller, but something's lacking with Tannehill that most top 10 QBs shouldn't be questioned about.
Foles on the other hand doesn't look as "dumb", but doesn't drop back and doesn't have nearly the same type of talent that Tannehill does.
Only quarterback I liked for us was Landry, and with that option gone there isn't a single QB in this draft outside of Kellen Moore that I would draft. Russell Wilson may be impressive, but an offense that runs twice for every pass and has an offensive line that averages more size than most NFL teams... Isn't exactly ideal when projecting an NFL QB who happens to be 5 foot 10.
Signing Flynn seems to be only legitimate option if we want to compete next year. The worst part about not choosing a QB is that unless we reach for Jeffrey, or draft TR3.... We'd be redundantly choosing another defensive player or OT that we don't need.
EDIT: Obviously I'm assuming that RG3 goes #4 to the Browns.
