Ryan Tannehill – quarterback
2016 salary – $11.5 million
Ryan Tannehill entered the 2015 season expected to make a huge turnaround in his game play. It would have been the 2nd season in a row under OC Bill Lazor and Dolphins fans and the team expected to see big positive strides. That however did not happen. Tannehill and the Dolphins offense were often playing from behind and when they were not, they were unable to generate long sustained scoring drives with any consistency.
Part of the offensie woes come on the shoulders of the offensive line but Tannehill is not without his own blame.
