Before Myles Jack became the top linebacker in the NFL Draft, he was regarded as the greatest two-way player in the state of Washington since current Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart.

The 6-foot-1, 245-pound machine served primarily as a running back for Bellevue (Wash.), and led his Wolverines football team to consecutive Washington 3A state championships in 2011 and 2012. The widely recognized 2012 Wolverine football team finished sixth in the MaxPreps Xcellent 25 National Football Rankings presented by the Army National Guard, and the 2011 squad was 14th.

Despite having an offer from his hometown school of University of Washington, Jack signed as a 4-star recruit to UCLA.

In his senior year at Bellevue, Jack obliterated his opponents by leading Division 3A in sacks with 24 and was second in tackles with 98. That all led to second team MaxPreps All-American Team honors. Perhaps the most impressive of Jack's high school accomplishments was recording five tackles in the 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio.

Since his performance on national television, any doubts or pessimism about Jack seemed to fly out the window.

The latest CBS Sports mock draft boards project Jack could be a top-five pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. Of the five experts, two have him headed to Jacksonville at No. 5, then one each see him going to either the Ravens (sixth), 49ers (seventh) or Dolphins (eighth).
