Vontae Mack

TV Show/Movie Appeared: Draft Day (2013)
Actor/Actress: Chadwick Boseman
Position Portrayed: Linebacker
Played For:: Ohio State
Why you should vote:: This was the guy who went number one in the draft!
Why you should not vote:: How the hell do we know what he did in the pros?
Although the player who was the focus of the NFL draft in the Kevin Costner film, Draft Day, was the University of Wisconsin Quarterback, it was a Linebacker from Ohio State who would go first overall and be the real (or so we are led to believe) prize in the draft.

Vontae Mack (Chadwick Boseman) lobbied hard to be a Cleveland Brown (really?) and through footage and persistence he convinces Crash Davis, Ray Kinsella, Billy Chapel, the Bodyguard guy Sonny Weaver Jr. (Kevin Costner) to do just that. Hey, this guy moonlit as Jackie Robinson so let’s agree that they saw a real athlete here!
