NFL Draft Rumors: Ravens remove Laremy Tunsil from draft board

Laremy Tunsil is free falling in the 2016 NFL Draft, and one team taking him off their board isn’t going to help.

Coming into the 2016 NFL Draft, Laremy Tunsil was seen as arguably the best offensive lineman in this class. He was even regarded by some as the best prospect for the draft.

Things quickly tumbled for Tunsil, however. As the draft started on Thursday night, his Twitter account was apparently hacked and a video was posted of him smoking what’s presumed to be marijuana from a bong with a gas mask on. This was horrible timing for Tunsil as he is now slipping down the draft board as tackles Jack Conklin and Ronnie Stanley have already been selected.

Well, one team can be marked off potential suitors for Tunsil. NFL Network reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala noted on Twitter that the Baltimore Ravens have removed Tunsil from their draft board completely.

With Tunsil falling down the draft board, it’s likely that other teams have done the same. A few franchises have even traded up into the top 10, but none of them picked the former Ole Miss Rebel.

We will have to see where Laremy Tunsil falls to in the draft. It is anyone’s guess at this point, as a team will have to feel they can overlook this and possibly any other red flags about him. Maybe talent overrides this, but so far, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
