Mike "Missile" Mitchell the biggest hitter in the entire draft according to Raiders head coach Cable. Compared him to Ronnie Lott and Jack Tatum. Highest drafted Ohio Bobcat since 1948. ESPN gets caught with their pants down for not doing their homework on him. They had no clue who he was. Raiders video showed they really love him and Cable said he is really something to watch. They youtube video of Mitchells big hits and picks are something. Raider love that he has the speed to play free saftey as well as strong saftey. Ohio with more picks than Oklahoma and Notre Dame. Gotta love that. Were very excited for Mike on our board. 15 teams worked him and highest non-combine invite player drafted this decade. Story of round two.

Good thing Notre Dame doesn't have Ohio or any of the other MAC schools on their schedules.....they would get their butts handed to them.

Just curious about the above statement. What did the self proclaimed draft guru, Kiper, say about this Bobcat in his pre-draft scouting reports. And what did he (and others) say on air during draft?
