Mike Mayock perfect fit for Raiders

The Raiders can finally exhale with news that Mike Mayock has agreed to become their new general manager.

With all due respect to the other candidates the Raiders dutifully considered, the organization needed to secure its top choice to proceed with confidence.

Replacing Reggie McKenzie with another retread GM candidate wasn’t going to give the Raiders the credibility they need to win over a skeptical fan base. Mayock also stands a better chance to make the Raiders competitive on the field.

His thirty years as an NFL scout was enough to win over the Raiders. This isn’t the first time a former TV analyst left the broadcasting booth to work for an NFL team.
