Via Miami Herald:

Sources close to Tagovailoas say the Alabama quarterback would love for the Dolphins to trade up to No. 3 to select him. Those same sources say they don’t love the idea of Detroit actually picking Tua because of the arc of that team’s current coaching situation.

The Lions will be playing their third season under Matt Patricia in 2020. He has a 9-22-1 record his first two seasons and the Tagovailoas are concerned another poor season could force the Lions to fire Patricia — putting the quarterback in the uncertain 2021 situation of being a draft pick the new coach didn’t make.

Joe Burrow isn’t going to pull an Eli Manning, but could Tua?  We’ll have to wait and see. 

We’ll also have to wait and see if Tua is drafted that high.  We’re not too sure that he will be.
