Well its not my money they are spending, so great pick-up.  If he's healthy - fantastic, if he's somewhat healthy - adds good depth, if he doesn't make it out of preseason - add $.25 to the price of beer at the stadium.

Also allows the Fins to do have options Rd 1 of the draft. No immediate need to grab a CB early.

Starting to look like they might package somep picks and move up a bit ahead of SD to grab Lane Johnson the OT from Oklahoma

All they need is Eric Winston to come down on his price now and they're good to go

Very good signing. Not a lot of money, but a high amount of reward if he is healthy. The draft didn't happen yet, but it looks like we have addressed all of our problems(and addressed them well), and it's all up to Tannehill to produce. It's a lot of pressure, but that's what separates the bad players from the good.

Getting the vibe they really don't want him, nor does any other team!

I wouldn't say they have addressed ALL of their problems by any means and its not like they signed a bunch of superstars either. But they got rid of the old and the troublemakers and brought in fresh faces.

I didn't think they needed a superstar, other than at WR and we got one in Wallace. Every other position we upgraded in. Now, we draft an OT with the first pick, then a DE or CB with the 2 seconds and we are set for a run this year. It's all on Tannehill.

One of these days the Patriots will go 9-7 and Brady will stop being elite. Maybe it's this year. I will be very happy with a Wild Card, but I am not conceding the division just yet.

I say it's all on Tannehill because if he doesn't continue his improvement, none of this works. Miami goes nowhere without him playing well. So, his play will dictate the season's outcome. I can't envision a scenario where he plays very well and Miami goes 7-9.

It's a QB driven league, every teams success hinges on the QB and his play. No teams win in spite of their QB's anymore, those days are long over!

I think what he meant is that Tannehill has to play well for this team to have a chance, but even if he does, other guys need to step it up too in order for this team to have a chance.

I agree with this, because while I can't see Miami being worse than 10-6 if Tanny has a great year, I also can't see them making the Superbowl if a lot of other guys don't.
