Mingo might be a good fit for us.

The one thing that puts me off about Mingo is his size, He's only a little heavier than Marques Colston

And for us to have that sort of guy as an OLB deters me a little, he is athletically a great player but his size and the fact that he declined the bench press at the NFL combine proves a red flag in my opinion

Then again Colston is 225lbs. Cato June played ILB for the Colts on less than that and did a fine job. And we used to have a LB named Mills that people thought to small to play the game...

With the evolution of the league towrds passing players like Roman Harper playing linebacker are going to become more common over time.
