Mock drafts have been spared the embarrassment of having to be redone now that Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has declared for this year’s NFL Draft. It wasn’t really all that much of a surprise.
Going back to college for his senior year made little sense financially for Tagovailoa. Injured two seasons ago and again last year missing the end of the season with a hip injury, Tagovailoa could have seen his draft stock plummet with another injury.
Many don’t see problems with his game if and when he is healthy but his health should be a concern to any team that is looking to spend a high draft pick on him.
