Mayo is a very smart player. The Pats were able to pick him because he'll be able to pick up on their more complicated schemes more easily than other LBs in the past would have. That's why the Pats have passed up on LBs in the past...I even believe that they've said that they don't want to go young at LB until they have to due to the complexity of their LB strategies. Mayo, though, should be able to make an immediate impact. I love the pick.
