Chiefs Raiders GM Mike Mayock on Draft strategy - Page 6

This is a pretty fun listen. No matter what he says you can tell he's under a ton of pressure to get this draft right because he used to be the draft guru . LOLOL. You can tell he's worn out worrying even though he says he's not. That being said i think he'll get it right for the Raiders and in two years they'll be easily 8-8.

Hunter Renfrow, 5th round choice, 33 catches, 365 yards, and 2 TDs.

Isaiah Johnson, another 4th round choice, just came off IR.

I'd mention Abrams, but since he was a 1st rounder, I guess that it doesn't matter he's been on IR since after week 1.

Also, we had a lot of 4th round picks because Mayock traded down a bunch to gather those picks.

Max Crosby and Hunter renfro were great picks. I'm not too familiar with the other guys but no doubt they hit on Jacobs,Abrham and Ferrel too.

Ferrell over Allen seems like a big whiff.

And the jury’s still out on Abram’s durability or ability to play S in the modern NFL.

Agreed, despite Ferrell playing much better in recent weeks.

Josh Allen was can't-miss and then he didn't miss. It was the biggest no-brainer replacement for Mack.

Pains me to say, but it looks like a pretty good-not perfect- draft even relative to all the capital they had.

Crosby is a freaking beast. Almost unblockable.

His motor is off the charts but he was/is very raw. Seems the last couple of weeks his technique is improving but again his motor is maddening.

Ferrell was a classic example of Mike Mayock trying to be the smartest guy in the room so hard that he easily outsmarted himself.

He was a solid TV analyst, but he always had those what the fuck choices where you knew he was out thinking it all.

Don't know how old you are but Allen is the modern day Bobby Douglas running for more TDs than passing. I just don't see Josh Allen ever becoming a stud drop back passer. Big arm yes, but that is about it besides rushing when in the red zone.

You would have to be nuts to think a college DE could become a drop back passer in the NFL!

Only because we are legion and everywhere across the world. Though I have seen the Raiders in person a few times. Two wins and one loss in KC.
