Texas A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill rocketed up the draft boards largely on the strength of a great pro day workout. Since then the likelihood of him becoming an elite quarterback have been debated as analysts pick apart his college stats and film.
Reasons the Browns will take him: The Browns are not sold on Colt McCoy as a franchise QB. They are looking for an upgrade and made a failed attempt to get Robert Griffith III. Tannehill is viewed as the next best option.
Reasons the Browns won't take him: Tannehill has only 19 college starts under center and his game tape lacks "wow" factor according to some analysts. Despite the potential upside he is a huge risk of being a bust if not put into the right situation. Also, neither Holmgren or Heckert has ever drafted a quarterback this high.
Likelihood the Browns take him: Low. At #4 the Browns need an impact player from day 1, not a project who may or may not pan out.
