Your failed NFL GM take of the day:

Tannenbaum would take Herbert because QBs are getting hurt this year and you have to go with someone bigger. He compares Herbert to Big Ben (a QB that is ironically out for the season).

Also says Burrow’s arm strength is better than he thought (aka he had not watched him play this year yet).

NFL GMs folks...

Isn’t Big Ben out for the year?

Which team does he work for? Oh yeah...

I trust his “evaluation” skills about as much as Chad Morris to break down passing schemes

Heard that yesterday driving to work. Of all the shitty takes in the world…that ranks right up there with the shittiest.

Even if I wasn’t an LSU fan, that is the most asinine rationale for selecting Herbert over Burrow. It is literally borderline retarded.

He came up the ladder as an unpaid intern starting at the Pittsfield Mets. He's a pencil pusher. His player skill-set opinions are groundless.

Unfortunately, these guys (and owners) make a ton of personnel decisions in the NFL.

He is George Costanza with a next level promotion.

Joe Burrow is a spitting image of Tom Brady coming out of college.

I think he’s done ok for himself.

Add in Cam’s fricked up ankle and Matthew Stafford’s broken back. Injuries can happen to anybody, especially with a shitty offensive line. Tannenbaum is a hack.

Well at this point the Bengals will likely have the #1 pick. Do you think they are gonna pass up the chance to draft a kid that was born and raised in OHIO?

I wouldn’t but I mean this IS the Bengals we’re talking about. They create new ways to suck.

True and I really don’t wanna see Burrow end up on such a garbage team that doesn’t get much positive coverage. I guess that’s the price you pay for being a top 1-3 pick though.

I have no idea why people buy into the fallacy that bigger means more resilient.

Because we all know that linemen never get hurt

Knee ligament tears, ankle sprains, etc. all happen the same way, I don't care how big you are.

Which one do you work for?

Herbert was projected as a first rounder last year but opted to go back. What’s the big deal if someone prefers him? Some of you are such snowflakes, just looking for something to get offended by
They haven’t even begun the real evaluations yet

Why Justin put that extra "R" in his name right before the "B"?

It isn’t that he prefers him. It’s why.

Watch the video. It’s insane.
