“Every draft, we like to think that the first pick that we take kind of sets the tone for the draft class,” said General Manager Jason Licht. “When the Glazer family hired me, it was my first time being a GM and there were a lot of things that I did wrong that first year [but] there was one thing that I did right and it was Mike. It made up for a lot of those other things. He’s the epitome of what you want in a draft pick. He set the standard. Every year you want the first pick to set the standard for the class and Mike set the standard for me. I’ve been chasing that standard with my staff every year. Because of that, we’ve had some success and we won a Super Bowl and we’re in position to chase another one and compete for another one and win another one because of Mike. That’s what Mike has meant to me.”
