A source with the Miami Dolphins has reported to the Miami Herald that Dolphins’ Quarterback Ryan Tannehill is still in the mix for the starting job. Tannehil was selected 8th overall by the Miami Dolphins.

There is much speculation that suggests that Tannehill was simply a “project” for development until recently. A source from the Dolphins’ camp has said that they want Tannehill signed as soon as possible, so that he will not fall too far behind veterans.

Tannehill must compete with David Garrard and Matt Moore, who are simply ushers for the quarterback of the future that the Dolphins are looking for. Tannehill is expected to live up to that name.
