Eagles will host massive Australian rugby player on pre-draft visit

Ex-Australian rugby player Jordan Mailata is one of 30 2018 NFL Draft prospects scheduled to meet with the Eagles in Philadelphia for an official pre-draft visit, according to Gil Brandt.

Mailata is a massive man who is trying to convert to offensive tackle. The 20-year-old recently measured in at 6-8, 346 pounds during a pro day in Florida.

His arms measured a massive 35.5 inches. He was timed at 5.12 seconds in the 40-yard dash, which would have been good for seventh among tackle participants at the NFL Combine in February.
