Mitch Meewsen, S, Oregon State
Why Is Meewsen Projected in the 4th Round. He's faster than both the top ranked safeties, Davis and Pool. He has 20 career touchdowns; Davis has 3; Pool has 9.
S Mitch Meeuwsen, Oregon State
How can a guy with 217 career tackles (including 10.5 for loss), 29 passes defensed and 20 collegiate interceptions go so unnoticed? When you make 11 tackles against the national champions, get 20 picks in a conference that has included Aaron Rodgers, Kyle Boller, Andrew Walters and two Heisman trophy winners in Matt Leinart (how much easier would mocks be if he’d declared?) and Carson Palmer you’d imagine it’d be hard to be ignored. This guy is a bona-fide ballhawk and is as productive as anyone in the NCAA. By the way, he runs a 4.7 40yd dash, so the rest gets completely ignored.
Well, he didn't run a 4.7/40 at the Combine -- he was projected at 4.7. He didn't run at all at the Combine. At Oregon State's Pro Day he ran 4.49/40.
No player got less respect come All-Star time than Oregon State star Mitch Meeuwsen. Spurned by the Senior Bowl and the East-West game, Meeuwsen has made the best of his time in Vegas by garnering a ton of praise from a slew of observers. He's an athlete with great size, terrific hitting ability and good leadership qualities. Production wise, few safeties in PAC-10 history have had a better career than Meeuwsen, a 2004 Thorpe award finalist. Lack of speed is the major knock against him, but that hasn't been a problem in Vegas.
Pool - 6'1" 207" 4.54/40 172 tackles - 9 interceptions
Davis 6'1" 230 4.53/40 272 tackles - 3 interceptions - 4 forced fumbles
Meeuwsen - 6/2" 210 - 4.49/40 - 217 tackles - 20 interceptions - 9 recovered fumbles
