Former North Carolina State star Bradley Chubb will likely find himself off the board within the first five picks of the 2018 NFL Draft. Here’s a dude that has absolutely dominated each of the past two seasons, putting up 44 combined tackles for loss and 20 sacks. His tape is about as awesome as it gets.
Chubb is currently in Indianapolis taking part in the annual NFL Scouting Combine. He’s set to do on-field work on Sunday. But in speaking to the media earlier in the weekend, Chubb likened himself to a combination of Khalil Mack and Von Miller.
“I try to take Khalil Mack and Von Miller and put them into one person,” Chubb said, via NFL.com. “Khalil Mack’s the more powerful guy, probably the best long arm in the game right now. Von Miller’s the speed, finesse guy. Just try to put both of those together, have some power moves, have some speed moves that I go to.”
With a 6-foot-4 269-pound frame, Chubb is an absolute freak of nature on the field. These comparisons could very much hold some ground. Miller was the No. 2 overall pick of the Broncos back in 2011. Meanwhile, Mack found himself as the fifth overall player off the board in 2014. Both are former NFL Defensive Player of the Year recipients. At this point, Chubb can be seen of the same ilk and likely won’t fall out of the top five of April’s draft.
