That was quick. Mike Mayock was in Kansas City yesterday to fulfill duties for his NFL Network gig and took advantaged of the locale to interview for the vacant GM position as well. Now according to Adam Schefter, Mayock went from being interviewed for the job to being hired.
Raiders are hiring NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock as their general manager, league sources tell ESPN. The announcement will be made as early as today.

Considering that the Raiders had already dipped into the television analyst market for head coach Jon Gruden, doing so again for his general manager is just a tad ironic.
