6. Laremy Tunsil, Offensive Tackle, Ole Miss

Mike Mayock of NFL Network said he thought teams may be a little bit scared of Ole Miss tackle Laremy Tunsil right now after the news of his alleged attack on his stepfather last year.

At this juncture, it would be hard to see the Baltimore Ravens pass on such a great talent. NFL.com’s Daniel Jeremiah and many other analysts have Tunsil as their top-rated player.

Tunsil has very fluid movement skills for a left tackle. And Mayock, on his anual mock draft show last night, said Tunsil had the best feet of any tackle prospect to come out in five or six years.

Mayock also mocked a trade to the Tennessee Titans at the Ravens’ sixth pick. I’m not sure they would pass on Tunsil for a trade back, but I certainly understood his premise and explanation of the values matching. He had the Titans giving the Ravens their 15th pick and their 33rd pick to jump back into the top 10. That does make sense for both sides involved.
