Mike Mayock: I wouldn’t use a first-round pick on Teddy Bridgewater

#28

Let me start off by saying I like Mayock.  I think of all the analysts out there he is one of the best.  And typically isnt afraid to stick his neck out.  He'll knock highly thought of players and talk up prospects others arent quite as high on.  

 

So I'm not one to call out Mayock.  However I'm pretty sure I heard him say he hadnt really looked at Bridgewater before his pro day.... that whenever he spoke highly of Bridgewater that he was parroting others' views of Teddy.  And that after Teddy's poor pro day, he finally was able to dive into the film and make his own conclusion.  So to hear him say that he had seen 4 games worth of tape before the combine doesnt jive with what I've heard earlier.  Sounds like his story is changing a little.  

 

Now that Mayock's star has risen, I just dont think he has as much time to study guys as he did before.  So when voicing his opinion about certain players there may be a caveat now that he just hasnt seen as much of them as he would have liked.  Plus I wonder if his opinion is starting to be more influenced by what scouts are telling him in an attempt to look more correct on draft day.
