Stepping away from free agency, New York Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan hit the scouting trail on Wednesday, flying halfway across the country to check out quarterback Baker Mayfield at the Oklahoma pro day.
Maccagnan certainly got an up-close view of the Heisman Trophy winner. ESPN colleague Jeff Darlington covered the pro day and posted this on Twitter:

The Jets are doing a lot of homework on Mayfield, who could be available with the sixth overall pick in the draft.
