Saw this argument in a couple other threads. Want to hear what the people of FF have to say.

To remove bias, I will put forth no personal opinion

Discuss....

Too early to call. Wilson has been up and down (understandable for a rookie) while Tannehill started out looking decent but has been garbage recently. Still Wilson has a 100x better supporting cast on offense than Tannehill does. So I'll have to see more of both before casting judgement...

Way too early, IMO.

But, if I had to choose based off of what I've seen -- I'm taking Tannehill. He was an EXTREMELY raw QB prospect with what, 18 games under his belt in college? The fact that he's shown as much as he has already, plus his potential, I'm taking the risk and going with the guy with more upside.

This is like comparing Peyton Manning to Alex Smith. Ryan Tannehill easily.

Russell Wilson has the far superior WRs, OL, HB and TE. I'd sure hope he performs better, going forward I'm taking Tannehill.

Tannenhill.

He's not as raw as people are making him out to be, while he didn't play much, he always took part of the QB meetings, not the WR meetings at A&M.

Well, Wilson has better WR's to throw to and a solid running game.

Tannehill has no WR's that get separation.

Wilson has the better arm, Tannehill is taller so that has its advantages. If Wilson was taller, I would definitely take him, but I'd still take him because I like his intangibles better.

I liked Ryan Tannehill more (mostly because of the height) but at this point, I wouldn't swap Russell Wilson for him. I am 100% committed to him.

Way too early to tell. I think Tannehill has been asked to do more so far.
