I don't know if Tannehill's straight line speed is better than RG3, but RG3 is not really that good of a runner for his speed.

His speed alone makes him a dual threat but he's definitely not as instinctive running the ball as other mobile QBs in the past. But his pocket passing more than makes up for it and his ability to run some is just an added bonus.

I think thats because of the knee injury he had to learn how to not use it as a crutch early in his career.

Hes got the talent to be one of the great mobile QBs, but he learned a lesson already the Vick just started learning a few years ago. Most mobile QBs look at that first read and then look for a place to run but RGlll wasnt like that last year, he has very good pocket presence
