THREAD: The #Bears signed Buffalo EDGE Ledarius Mack as an undrafted free agent, and while he’s best known for being Khalil’s brother, he‘s a talented player in his own right.
Mack is a very athletic defender off the edge. He ran a 4.66 40-yard dash at his Pro Day, and that speed is apparent through his burst off the snap and his closing speed as a tackler, as shown on this stunt.
Mack has very good bend and lower-body flexibility in his skill set. He is able to maintain his speed at the top of his arc and keep a sharp angle of pursuit when turning the corner. He had 7 sacks, 11 tackles for a loss and 3 forced fumbles in 2019.
Mack has also shown some promise in his hand usage. He’s a smaller defender, but he has flashed the ability to hold blocks and eat up gaps against the run, as he does here at the bottom of the screen.
Mack also has good lateral quickness in the open field and can change direction well, and he has solid form as a tackler. He also has some special teams experience, which should help his case in the NFL a bit.
He’s small at 5-11 and 234 lbs, which could move him to off-ball LB. He only has one year of real production and can add more strength.
However, Mack is athletic, versatile, flexible and offers ST upside. He could compete for a spot and at least be a good PS guy for the #Bears.
