NFL Draft Prospect: Jerod Mayo, LB, Tennessee

Jerod Mayo, LB, Tennessee
by Imran Tahir, 1/11/08
Jerod Mayo has, as expected, entered the NFL Draft. The hard-nosed Mayo led the SEC in tackles this past season, recording an incredible 62 stops in his last four games alone! In addition to possessing very good size at 6’2,” 230 lbs., Mayo is versatile, having played both OLB and ILB for the Vols, the latter this past season. When Mayo is healthy, he brings a non-stop motor to the field, and his teammates feed off of his intensity very well. Indeed, as the focal point of a defense, Mayo can virtually dominate a game, flustering opposing offensive coordinators and head coaches in the process. With Mayo, “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” and though he almost surely will be selected by the end of Round 2, good pre-Draft workouts and interviews could propel Mayo into the tag end of Round 1. My kind of football player!
