Mike Mayock is by leaps and bounds the best thing about The NFL Network. He's studied, highly opinionated and thorough...

 

No surprise he gets some right...He's sharp as a tack... :o

I totally agree. When I first began to watch him on the NFL Network I really liked his takes. I felt he was clearly better than Kiper, but I took a lot of heat for singing his praises. I didn't get to see him this year cause !@#$ING CHARTER CABLE PULLED THE NFL NETWORK!!!!! But I'm glad to see the guy was money.....the guy knows his stuff!!

 

I feel better about the pick knowing how he felt about it.....unless he just knew the Bills were going to pick him ahead of time, ;)

Maybe he did know...But it seems like Mayock spends most of his time evaluating the Talent and going with who he believes Teams should take, not what he hears...Similar to Kiper actually...I like both Kiper and Mayock...The info they give combined is excellent if you ask me... :o

Agreed....I remember sitting here watching the friggin COMBINE coverage before the 2005 draft, lol. That's how much I liked this guy's takes. Granted, he's not the flashiest guy, but anyone who truly loves this game - and the DRAFT! - won't care about that. He knows his sheeaaat.

He sure does...And the thing I really like is that Mayock rarely sugar coats anything...Even the Kids he likes he'll tell you exactly what they need to do in order to improve and compete on the NFL level...He's not the type of Scout who thinks many Players are a 100% sure thing...And I like that about his analysis... ;)
