After headlining NFL Network’s exclusive 2010 Scouting Combine coverage, draft expert Mike Mayock quarterbacks NFL Network’s Path to the Draft analyst team. Mayock “towers above the rest,” wrote SI.com following last April’s NFL Draft. “He’s confident and offers complex information…he’s prepared endlessly for this event…and he clearly loves his job.” Mayock was also billed by the Buffalo News as “the E.F. Hutton of draft experts.”
Charles Davis and Bucky Brooks join former NFL front office executive Michael Lombardi and former general manager Charley Casserly to comprise the rest of Path to the Draft’s expert analysts. Paul Burmeister heads up the rotation of hosts.
Following the daily draft news and free agent signings, Path to the Draft features interviews with NFL head coaches, general managers, scouts, and potential draft picks, plus guest analysts to deliver the most updated and relevant information on the 75th NFL Draft. The show will include Pro Day workout highlights of Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, Jimmy Clausen, Sam Bradford and others to give fans more inside information and analysis of who will be picked by each team.
In addition, every Thursday edition of Path to the Draft will feature the “Draft Journey” of three prospects: McCoy, DT Ndamukong Suh and S Myron Rolle. Each installment offers a behind-the-scenes look at each player’s preparation towards draft day in their own words, including inside access into their daily lives and training.
