Aussie Jordan Mailata takes another ‘massive step’ in NFL journey - ESPN
Mailata ended up being drafted by the Eagles, who moved up in the seventh round to get him. He went on to make the team out of training camp. Still very raw, the initial thought was to have him as the 53rd man out of 53 -- far away from live action as he spent the year developing. The timetable, though, continues to move up when it comes to this prospect. The Eagles had him active for Week 7’s game against the Carolina Panthers, meaning he was just an injury or two away from playing in his first professional game.
