For tail drop:

When the queue lenght of the class you created becomes full, every single
packet entering becomes dropped, and as a result, there appears the Global
Synchronization. (all network slows down due to dropped tcp connections).

For Random Drop (in Cisco Weighted Rando Drop):

Cisco only supports Weighted Random Detection, It means that when enabled in
a class, and there is congestion, the packets from a single class get
dropped more aggresively than packets from another class. The decission of
dropping what packets in relation to others is evaluating the weight
(precedence by default), for example, a low precedence packets gets more
chances to become dropped than a high precedence packet, when there is
congestion.
