The Facts:
Following up on the

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Asked by Colin Cowherd on ESPN Radio if he thinks he'll start any games during his rookie season, Tannehill said he isn't sure. "I don't know," Tannehill said. "They haven't told me anything. I'm just going to go in and compete. That's what I want to do every day, go in and compete. ... I want to play, but I don't think they've really spelled out their plans for me. ..." That said, Tannehill does seem to be on the way to a starting assignment sooner rather than later. Remember: He's playing in the same offense as he was in college because his coach at Texas A&M, Mike Sherman, is the Dolphins' OC. As a result, Tannehill has
a good head start on the playbook. What he doesn't have is experience, giving veterans Matt Moore and David Garrard their edge. We still expect Moore to be the Week 1 starter, but Tannehill is definitely worth watching.
