And probably he was a god by the time dragons existed so the dragons made a mask for him. As if it was some kind of hiearchy system. Everything living race <dragons <The divines <Talos Dude, you have no idea how many holes you have in that theory.

1. Talos wasn't alive at the time, if anything it was most likely that his great great grandparents were doing the do in Atmora when the Dragon Crisis occured.

2. Talos ascended to god-hood AFTER he died at the age of 103(?), so that rules out Talos being a god unless he really was the embodiment of Lorkhan.

And finally, 3. Dragon Priests get their magical masks from DRAGONS themselves, and they were dead when Talos was around.

So Talos as Konahriik has been ruled out from the start.
