The Washington Redskins are going off the beaten path when looking at potential general manager candidates.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock is a candidate to take over the position.

This would certainly be something. Mayock is well-known among fans for his analysis and presence on television. He did have a brief NFL playing career, but he has no experience whatsoever in a front office or executive role. Of course, given the supposed jealousy that led to Scot McCloughan’s firing, that may be exactly what Bruce Allen wants.
