Tua Tagovailoa sliding down draft boards? Former Alabama QB drops in Mel Kiper's latest mock draft
We are just over a week out from the 2020 NFL Draft and the latest mock draft from ESPN NFL Draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. suggests Tua Tagovailoa is sliding down the draft board.
Depending on who you believe, this news is interesting as Tagovailoa has received rave reviews from many following his recent virtual Pro Day held in Nashville. While NFL teams were not permitted to attend the event, representatives for Tagovailoa sent the video out to all 32 league teams.
If you didn’t catch Tagovailoa’s virtual Pro Day, you can view video from the event here.
Following the Pro Day, Tagovailoa’s trainer, Trent Dilfer, called it one of the best Pro Day events he’s seen in years.
However, not everyone is so enamored with Tagovailoa leading up to the 2020 NFL Draft. Former NFL GM Mike Lombardi claims multiple league teams have medically flunked Tagovailoa leading up to the league’s selection process.
Either way, Kiper has updated his mock draft and taken Tagovailoa out of the No. 5 spot and has selected Justin Herbert to be drafted by the Miami Dolphins.
Tagovailoa hasn’t dropped far in the mock, as Kiper has the former Alabama quarterback being taken No. 6 overall by the Los Angeles Chargers.
Here’s Kiper’s updated top 10, courtesy of ESPN:
It would be fitting to see the Dolphins draft Herbert with Tua still on the board.
In a year they’d trade Herbert for draft picks they’d use to draft a QB not as Herbert. It’s how to Dolphins.
This mock I guess is also assuming no trades are going to be made in the top 10 picks, which seems unlikely and probably isn’t a good assumption.
I’m sure Mel Kiper knows that there are going to be trades made. It would be impossible to predict though, so we get an all else equal top 10.
This moron also has Tristan Wirfs and Mekhi Becton above Andrew Thomas and Jedrick Wills.
The boy is fragile, thats hardly debatable. If I told Nick once I told him 100 times the boy is fragile. Too much canned spam, poi, and marlin sushi is my guess. We screwed up royally by letting Hurts go out west, I tried to tell Nick, but he never listens. Now look at the mess we are in.
Roll TIde
Just because you have an idiots name doesn’t mean you have to be an idiot.
I would love to know what’s the % of being right for these “experts”? I wish one of these bored writers would crunch the numbers. I bet their hit rate is pretty small.
Only people who believe Tua is a legit Top 5 pick after his injury are: Bama fans who believe they still are the best team in the SEC West and Trump Supporters.
Who the heck is better set than Alabama in the SEC West right now?
I believe TrunksnorterU is the best team in the SEC West…and your and my POTUS Mr. Donald Trump supports this message…
I believe TrunksnorterU is a jr College in rural Western PA and I can’t remember what we were talking about…I’m Joe Biden and as the best the left can find I support this meh, meh, meh…uhh, massage…yeah I like massages…
Always a pleasure to come across people that worship; a crook, a person that steals millions from children’s cancer charities and can never run one again, has unprotected sex with porn stars while his paid for illegal alien wife is home, has a 5th grade reading level education, Oh speaking of wives…We all know what he represents for you.
On a sports topic, we’ll just continue to salute the people in the Great State of Kansas on their Superbowl win!
Man you’re stupid.. Each post you make is worse than the one before it…
Nice to know your teleprompter is working as well.
I bet you if that criminal, son of a klansman, gerrymanderer, crook, rapist, serial sex offender said he was both an Auburn and Alabama fan, you and your toothless, incestial family members would give him a pass and the Alabama-Auburn Rivarly would end. With comments like, “you know Jerry, I dunno why we’ve been seperated over this dumb rivalry. President Trump was right, they’re both from the Great State of Alabamer. Hey waddaya say, we swap Jerseys..War Eagle Jim Bob..Roll Tide Justin!!
You are such a RK Maroon. Your a Colorado fan but since they sux so bad you have to bring in a pro team from another state. Let’s compare a person who has unprotected sex with a porn star to a President that sexually assaulted an intern in the Oval Office. Clinton and speaking of wives. With all of Trumps warts he has never been rumored to have killed people. Can’t say that about the either Clinton’s though.
Typical of you Republicans…But but but Bill Clinton…But but but her emails…but but but Obama..It’s ok, you can waive your confederate flag in private, substitute your white cone hats for those Red baseball caps that are made in China and pray Mac puts Alabama in a position to compete for the Western Division.
The only response you deserve is you’re an idiot…
Lol…nice try SluvaBison…I’m guessing by your altleft incoherent tripleK rants that the Colorado Guv deemed reefer shops non-essential…sorry to hear that.
Face it, if the best the left can provide as a great choice to the independent masses is an old white guy with ahlzeimers who aspires to be Barry the 2nd Obama when he grows up, or an ol white guy with dementia who aspires to be Hugo Chavez when he grows up…your party is in shambles. But hey, look at the bright side, Nanny Pelosi is clearly the best throw a spoiled multimillionaire girly speech document tearer upper I’ve ever had the pleasure to watch make a don key of herself…class without a c L.
Say what you want about Pelosi but goddang her twin deluxe refrigerators in her California mansion are pretty nice. Oh, to be a career politician. All you do is rile up the masses and then make money off the current trends. “Oy, vote for me and I’ll push for free stuff! Also, I am once again asking you to make a small donation to our cause.”
Deflect and Defend..The mere fact that you defend someone that has disgraced the Office of the Presidency, just so you finally exhaust your built racial frustrations is what has America disgusted. Your cult went from caring so much about America’s reputation abroad, that the minute a proven con, crook, child molester, racist, innocent but refuses to testify, allows you to think YOU are reclaiming something YOU think belongs to you, America and her values go out the window. Everything listed under Trump’s name is documented NOT conspiracy (I heard rumors). And you’re an adult that to this day, will circulate conspiracy theories? Majority of the PEOPLE I know hate bigots and people that wish Jim Crow Eras would resurface “AGAIN.” The majority of PEOPLE I know don’t want their children looking anywhere near this catastrophe in the White House. Notice where all those Rallies are had and who attends them..
Breaking news SluvaBison, On CNN New Day this morning President Trump does not care the black and brown people are dying…fresh isn’t it?
Saw Colorado’s REPUBLICAN Senator on as well, seems like a likable bloke for a bigotted cross burnin racist, yes?
Deflect and defend aside, besides a murdering embezzling Libya Embassy protectionist old white lady, and now a old white plaque brained obamaist, what other choices you got fir us independent voters? I think y’all blew it by not supporting stoner Harris or Conservative Wolf in liberal sheeps clothing Kobuchar…you clowns just gave my and your country four more years of the donald reality tv show. Thanks a lot morons…
