Would Khalil Mack in the top 5 feel like a "Gene Smith type of pick"?

People cite "rankings" of the player which have the player currently around 5 or so, but has Mack been there this whole time? Nope. He pretty much rose late to get him there. Gabbert did the same thing. Ratings mean little unless they show a consistent placing at the top, such as Clowney. The small school concern is real with Mack. Doesn't mean he's destined to fail, but theres a risk. People instead are quick to latch on to Ware as the outlier and automatically assume Mack will be that. 
 

well this mock is from november of last year http://nflmocks.com/2014-nfl-mock-draft/  has him at 7.               http://www.draftace.com/mockdraft/ november of last year has him at 6.             http://www.footballsfuture.com/2014/nflmockdraft.html november.                 december here has him at pick 2 http://www.draftking.com/mock/2014/                andddddddd december here has him going 4th.... http://thefootballexpert.com/mock-draft/

 

 

 

edit: doesnt sound like a late riser to me at all. 


Coughlin when asked if winning will be a focus: "What the hell else is there? This is nice and dandy, but winning is what all this is about."
