Draft Scouting Report
Draft Scouting Report:
Rating: 89.52 (Long-term starter)
Pro Comparison: Jason Witten
Summary:
Michael Mayer is a consistent performer who does a great job of making contested catches out of his frame. He lacks top-end athleticism and struggles to create separation as a result. Mayer is solid as a run blocker and in pass protection. He turns upfield quickly but does not have the breakaway speed to churn yards after the catch. Mayer is a bear for a defensive back to bring down in open space.

- Consistent producer dating back to his freshman season
- Great size to make contested catches and sustain blocks
- No wasted movement
- Blocks with good leverage and drives his feet on contact in the run game
- Soft hands to snatch passes away from his frame
Weaknesses:
- Average-to-below average quickness and athleticism
- Can get off the ball faster
- Does not create much separation
- Turns upfield quicky post-catch but does not have breakaway speed
Combine Results:
- 40-Yard Dash: 4.7 seconds
- Vertical: 32.5 inches
- Broad Jump: 9 feet, 10 inches
