Mingo traded to Patriots
-
And who would that be??......dont look now, but Mingo leads the OLB's in tackles so far this spring .....
So, it's Schobert, Johnson and Neal....
Oh, and I see they still have Ogbah listed as an OLB.....started him at OLB, then moved him back to DE and now, maybe, moving him back to OLB?????
Not so sure thats how you handle a top pick and get him started on the right foot.....nope, not at all.....
oth, Mud, that would be...

"BOTTOM LINE
Developmental 3-4 rush-linebacker prospect with the pedigree and sack production to warrant interest. However, Jeffcoat will need to get stronger and improve vs. the run to ever become more than a backup."
Jeffcoat is about as quick, far more instinctive, far more a physical player.
His instincts, football smarts, leadership, and physicality is far superior to Mingo. Trading Mingo is a no-brainer.
Jeffcoat LOVES THE GAME. THAT fits the Browns football player profile.

Sounds like an awesome prospect.....except we cut him 3 weeks ago......
But maybe they'll resign the guy they thought so little of that they cut him before they needed too....eh?

Cut on August first....and he's not on the Browns depth chart......
http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/team/depth-chart.html
Dont worry though....Krugers a beast and now that we have a coach that wont misuse him, well be fine....
Im expecting double digit sacks and at least 40 tackles.....
Question: whos the only Browns starter that doesnt even have a tackle yet???.....guess......

yep. was reading too fast...
had been looking at this predictions of cuts, but it was dated July 28th.
My bad. He was predicted to be cut, too. Has had different injuries, etc.
"never mind".

But.....I guess the good news(really) is that, since this is clearly a lost season, we will see LOTS of our youth getting defensive reps....
and, in the end, if they're good players, it will pay off.....ala Schobert, Campbell, Kindred, Ogbah, Nassib, Cooper, Shelton and Orchard.....
Should be painful, but interesting.......

that opens the door to a position spot for one of the instinctive, physical lb's.

Ogbah got moved when Desmond Bryant went out for the season.

I am surprised we didnt package a deal to send Mingo to them for that center they traded to the Skins. I still think we need some more depth there.

We've got a second year first round pick who will start 16 games at center.
Everyone that posted something in this thread about Mingo flourishing under Belichick is gay ... Just like Mingo

We get a 5th out of a guy we were probably going to cut & if Billy boy can get something out of him, so be it.

Trading Mingo was a good move. He was a big time bust ala Football Johnny. The Browns are lucky they got a fifth round pick for him. Maybe Belichick thinks he can coach him up. Who knows for sure but he wasn't doing anything in Cleveland.

I'liked Mingo and I'm sorry he's gone.

Mud,
Kruger is being forced to cover too much!
And now I run away..

Forget Mingo-the Browns can now sign FA "Spanky" McFarland plus get a 5th rounder. Now that's a D to die for!!.
Speaking of former Browns. http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/article-randylangefb/Skrine-Keeps-on-Competing-on-the-Corner/12b0dd3f-b6ae-4356-b211-9efd06915be6

sheard - browns. shows great motor. knows how to get after QB.
browns solution: have him play OLB. patriots: have him play his position DE.
mingo - ditto.

The difference is, as I heard on the radio.....Mingo hates contact. He hates tackling people. He doesn't really much like to play football. Belichick ain't going to correct that. He will dump Mingo mid season if he sees that.
Maybe as someone said, it would be best to turn Mingo into like a tight end or something.
