QBs Goff and Wentz soar, lineman Tunsil tumbles

It was all about the quarterbacks before Laremy Tunsil’s bizarre tumble down the board at the NFL draft.

2 selection by the Eagles after a successful career at North Dakota State in the second tier of college football.

After the top quarterbacks were off the board, the focus quickly turned to the slide by Mississippi offensive tackle Tunsil, once thought to be a potential first overall selection.

His Instagram account reportedly showed a text-message exchange indicating he took money from coaches at Ole Miss, something he acknowledged during his news conference after he was selected by the Dolphins.

There was little doubt about the position of the top picks after Los Angeles and Philadelphia each made a big trade to get into the draft’s top two slots.

After Goff and Wentz got their hats and exchanged pleasantries with Commissioner Roger Goodell, it was an Ohio State parade to the podium.

2 pick to the Eagles last week, moved down again in the first major deal of the night and grabbed Baylor wide receiver Corey Coleman with the 15th pick.

They also have the first pick in the second round Friday and could field more trade offers with UCLA linebacker Myles Jack and Alabama’s Derrick Henry and Reggie Ragland still available.

The 6-foot-4 Goff started every game during his three seasons at California and set school records with 977 completions, 12,220 yards passing and 96 touchdown passes.

The Titans then returned to the top 10 through a trade with the Browns and selected Michigan State offensive tackle Jack Conklin at No.
