NFL Rebel Laremy Tunsil received his end-of-season grade from Pro Football Focus earlier this week. Here is how the left guard graded out.
Laremy Tunsil was one of the most polarizing characters on draft night. From a potential top-3 pick, Tunsil fell all the way down to 13th due to a video of him smoking marijuana.
Two tackles were drafted ahead of Tunsil in the draft, Jack Conklin of the Titans and Ronnie Stanley of the Baltimore Ravens.

Conklin received one of the highest grades of all rookies, scoring 89.2
Stanley and Tunsil both scored about the same. Stanley scored a 78.2 and Tunsil scored a 70.6.
Here is what Pro Football Focus had to say about Tunsil.
"Laremy Tunsil has started at left guard for Miami, but has moonlighted at left tackle when injuries called for changes. He has still allowed just one sack all season (and that came at left tackle), and has been the reason his quarterback hit the ground just five times (three of which came at left tackle). Has been solid, if unspectacular."
Tunsil and the Dolphins are preparing for a playoff matchup in Pittsburgh this weekend. If Miami wins, they will face New England in the second round.
Nkemdiche and Treadwell did not receive grades for their rookie season due to both being sidelined most of the season.
Tunsil has been an important part to the Dolphins success this season, especially with backup quarterback Matt Moore starting. Moore will be relying on Tunsil to protect him in the playoffs this year.
