With Reggie McKenzie, we developed a pretty good idea of his strengths and weaknesses. He was known for being patient in the draft and for front loading free agent contracts to limit the potential for dead money should the team decide to cut ties with a player after a couple seasons.
He had some success in the draft, but also received a great deal of criticism. Where he was lauded most was his contract work. What we can expect from Mayock could be the opposite of that.
Mayock is a draft guru thru and thru. That’s what he has done for a very long time and why he was the most respected name during the draft process and the most respected voice at the NFL Network desk on draft day.
