MaxPreps Athletic Notes:
The #1 OL prospect in the state of Arkansas. On Film–#68 excels as both a run and pass blocker. He shows remarkable footwork for a 305 pounder, he can stay low, and shows a good kick slide and zone blocking ability. He surprises you with his body control and ability to redirect. At the prep level, he's a dominating OL who shows the ability to play either guard or tackle at the next level. He sets up fast and has been blessed with good overall athletic ability. Parker always seems to get good positioning, and he's a tough, steady performer with excellent technique.

ESPN EVALUATION:
Mack is a very solid offensive lineman that has shown the ability to play tackle or guard. He has good size and above average mobility for his size. He also displays athleticism especially on the edge when reach blocking or leading on the perimeter; good speed for a big guy. Slips to second level smoothly and gets contact on linebacker. Executes the draw and screen with very good fundamentals and skills; punches the defender than releases downfield with proper timing. Runs well and gives effort downfield. His long arms help in pass protection and he does a good job when he anchors down and keeps a good base underneath himself. He shows upper and lower body strength. Mack has a huge upside because of his quickness and range.
