Will Tua Tagovailoa Start NFL Week One?

The Miami Dolphins wasted no time in selecting Tua Tagovailoa in this year's NFL draft.
It ended months of speculation about the Alabama's quarterback's future, only to be replaced by numerous other questions.
Will he have the equivalent of a redshirt season?
Will veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick be on the final roster?
How likely is it that Tagovailoa starts Week 1 of the upcoming season?
SI's fantasy and gambling analyst Jaime Eisner and Dolphins team reporter Alain Poupart predict when they expect to see Tua under center in an NFL game.
