An earlier poster said that Mallet reminded GM's of Matt Jones. That is a great comparison. He looked awful sitting with Gruden. Bad posture, bad english, slow, country as hell. His agent should have never let him get on that show or should have at least put him in a suit, told him to sit up straight, and prepared him for some of Gruden's questions (which was probably impossible as Gruden is so enigmatic and just pulls thins out of the sky). Mallet lost a lot of cash screwing around with Gruden. He should have let his game film and Pro Day speak for him.
Teams that watched that show saw a former (alleged) drug user, with an aloof attitude, who appeared dumb as a box of rocks (Cam didn't do any better.) However, the tape showed the kid can ball. Matt Jones switched positions, so his situation cannot be compared. Matt Jones was also super tall, lanky, and and no idea how to run the WR tree. Mallet can make every throw.
