Joel Klatt’s NFL Mock Draft 2.0: One QB takes a massive tumble down the board, but it’s not Tua
With the clock ticking down to the 2020 NFL Draft, the status of one quarterback prospect is the story of Thursday’s selection process.
Tua Tagovailoa is arguably the most talented signal-caller in the draft pool, yet injury concerns could cause the Alabama QB to tumble down the draft board. In Joel Klatt’s Mock Draft 2.0, though, Tua lands comfortably in the Top 10, while it’s Oregon’s Justin Herbert who ends up in Miami, just not at No. 5.
