Barkevious Mingo
 

He should be there. I would love to see him in a Saints uniform. Exceptional player and a quality person.

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

I like the player he is and him as a person, i just have my doubts

If we do take him i hope he proves me wrong, I just think he may be undersized for DE at the NFL level, as i said if we draft him I'll root for him to prove me wrong

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

Yeah size is my concern with him too. He is a terrific player however.

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

He didn't do anything this past season. Why draft another underacheiving player for our D-Line?

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

Move him to OLB. He's projected as the 12th pick.

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

I love Mingo tooo but Montgomery might be in that area as well and I'd take him over Mingo.

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

Take off the homer glasses. Not every LSU player is NFL caliber. We have a version of him now with Martez Wilson.

Re: Barkevious Mingo
 

Yeah Mingo is around the same size. And I do think Mingo is NFL caliber just not at the DE position...maybe at OLB. Thats why I like Montgomery better (not homer glasses really just saying skill wise) because he's heavier and is really good at containing the run as well.

I don't this this draft is one to take any chances in.
I think 3 of the front 4 look like they could be decent/good starters in Hicks,Bunkley and Jordan.
Whoever comes in needs to be able to complete that line.Smith has given good service but his salary far outweighs his performance now.

I have not seen enough to see if Mingo can do the job,but without a second round pick this pick has to count and make a difference.

Mingo has talent but I would not use an early pick on him. If he's available in the 5th round go for it. He's undersized but they can put some meat on his bones.
