This is the guy the Raiders picked in the second round. Projected as second day pick. A reach? Possibly, but the Bears were said to be gunning for him at 49 so it's hard to say. He's physically impressive and hits like a mack truck. He definitely fits what Al looks for.

What do you guys think of him?

Physical freak with the measurables that Davis loves (it's not always about speed with him, it's about athleticism).

If he develops in a couple years (like a guy who took some time to develop, oh like an Adrian Wilson) he could be the SS the Raiders have needed since an assassin.

I like. :D

However, in the NFL I wonder if he can get away with just trying to knock players down with a hit without wrapping them up. I do like how he delivers a hit though.

As an Ohio alum I've watched all of their games.

I called him "Mitchell the Missile".

His hard hits did cause him some injuries during his career. NFL type for sure. Second rounder?......I don't know.
