Things have been awfully quiet on the Ryan Tannehill front over the last week or so, and thus trade rumors and speculation between the Dolphins and the Vikings has also come to a halt.
A few moments ago, however, Daniel Wolf of National Football Authority tweeted that his “contacts have confirmed” that the Dolphins are once again sniffing around the Vikings third overall selection in an attempt to ensure Tannehill wears a marine mammal on his helmet next year.
One thing is for sure, there is a big market out there for the Vikings top pick, and it is looking increasingly possible that they could hold an auction and possibly land a blockbuster deal that boosts their draft power this year and next.

Great updates Adam!! Hope you got some good sleep last night. Looks like we are in for a very exciting draft.
Thanks Norse... I'm here all day today... and tomorrow... and Saturday and will try to bring the latest to you ASAP. Brett will be joining in shortly, too, and Gil from thevikingden.com will be co-hosting the live chat with us!
I might have to do a quick beer run in a bit, but other than that... 100% committed to being here monitoring the news :)
I admit I have been highly critical of Spielman. But, if he really wants to trade down by putting out a lot of smoke screens to drum up interest for a trade, he has done a fantastic job. Tampa would be an awesome trade partner if he can pull it off.
