When Mayock speaks, we listen.

That said, his 2013 mock draft offers some very interesting surprises at the top of the draft and then a few surprising names near the bottom. Names like Justin Pugh, who has been getting first-round buzz over the past few days, enters Mayock’s mock draft at No. 19, while the top three offensive tackles are off of the board by pick No. 4.
