Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack has been talked up by draft analysts for months, but NFL Network’s Mike Mayock took the gushing over Mack to a new level today.In an interview with KFAN, Mayock said that he would take Mack with the first overall pick in the draft.“He’s one of the best two or three players in this draft,” Mayock said. “I’m going to tell you right now, I’d take him with the first pick.”Mayock said Mack’s best position is probably outside linebacker in a 3-4, but Mayock says it doesn’t matter if a team plays a 3-4 or a 4-3, Mack will be a good fit in any NFL defense.“Khalil Mack can play anywhere in the front,” Mayock said. “If you put the tape on against Ohio State, he dominates Ohio State like nobody I’ve ever seen dominate them. He’s explosive off the edge, he’s tough, he’s twitchy, he’s got a little edge about him. When I watch him on tape I feel like he’s pissed off at the world, and I like that. Then you put on a tape, I think it was Kent State, and he drops into coverage like a safety, reads the quarterback’s eyes, undercuts a route, one-handed interception.”South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been generally recognized as the best defensive player in this year’s draft, but Mayock doesn’t see it that way.“You talk about a guy like Clowney, who’s just got superhuman abilities, versus this kid, if I had a choice between the two, I think I’m going Mack,” Mayock said.That’s quite an endorsement

I timed at 3.8 in the 40 on my wrist watch. Was I close?

That is insane explosiveness. By comparison Von Miller was at 37" and 10' 6". Watch Mack play, the guy is an insane athlete. He's in the Clowney range Posted : Feb. 24, 2014 3:02 pm Anonymous (@Anonymous) Posts: 0 I still want a tackle, but a DE rotation of AC, Mack, and Allen would not hurt my feelings.
