QB. Alabama. player. 59. Scouting Report. Tua Tagovailoa. 13. Pick Analysis

The big question right now is whether or not Tua Tagovailoa’s recent hip injury is going to affect his 2020 NFL Draft stock enough that he should consider going back to Alabama for another season.

My personal opinion after hearing about his recovery time and the fact that he’s supposed to be back to physical activities and throwing by the Spring is that there’s no way NFL teams are going to keep him off their boards.

This guy is a top overall prospect type of talent at the quarterback position and the Dolphins, sitting at pick number four overall right now, would probably be dumb not to take the risk on him given their woes at the quarterback position and the fact that they have three first-round picks this year.

Despite his lengthy injury history, Tagovailoa is such a talent that some NFL team is going to need to afford him the patience to fully recover from this hip injury, and the Dolphins — who have traded just about every talented player on their roster — have no reason to be impatient at this point.
