The more I read on Mercilus, the more I like the pick. He hasn't played all that much football so he's got a lot of upside on technique. Very strong, nimble hands despite missing one fingertip. Big wingspan will help swat down passes. Played soccer in high school which means he's already skilled at changing directions quickly and pursuing. He's probably worthless in pass coverage but so was Mario. He's not developed as a run defender either but he projects like a Demarcus Ware at the position and we all know Ware really was asked to do just one thing.
