Mingo traded to Patriots
-
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!!.

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.

Speaking of Spanky McFarland:

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

Gilbert and Erving next on the bust parade. Mathews for center. Sorry if this doesn't show well new to my smartphone.

I wouldn't give up on Gilbert and Erving just yet. Some players simply need a few years to develop once entering the NFL and these two players were thrown right into the fire.

Erving has played two preseason games at Center, you guys that are calling him a bust are nuts.Gilbert and Erving next on the bust parade. Mathews for center. Sorry if this doesn't show well new to my smartphone.
He's a talented cat and we now have him at the right position.
A lot of folks think they are offensive line gurus around here, everyone thought Mitchell Schwartz sucked for three years while he grew into one of the best right tackles in the business.
Have some freaking patience with this guy, he has the talent, the size and the heart. He'll get beyond the learning curve and be a great asset.

I hope so, but right now, it doesn't look promising. Right now, some of us are seeing another "soft" Courtney Brown.

So that means, in total, Erving has played 7 football games at center. (5 in college)
....I think we're HOPING he's now at his 'right position'.

Not sure if this is the right position for him but I agree that he will be good.

Couple short, interesting PFT articles on Mingo in paradise. In spite of the first's headline, Mingo doesn't really take any shots at our current regime and in fact acknowledges Hue & Co.'s attitude. Same cannot be said about Chud.
Barkevious Mingo finds “culture shock” between Patriots and Browns“It’s a huge culture shock,” Mingo said, via Adam Kurkjian of the Boston Herald. “I felt like the winning spirit was making its way into Cleveland with those new coaches, but it’s definitely been established here for a long time, and I’m excited to be a part of it.”
“It’s very exciting. This team is stacked at every position. They have guys on the outside who can cover. We’ve got interior guys who are holding gaps and linebackers that are hitting those gaps and making big plays. I’m just excited to be a part of it.”
Barkevious Mingo impressed Bill Belichick, even before debutBelichick said that the first thing he noticed after trading for the former No. 6 overall pick that was Mingo flew directly from Tampa (where the Browns were working out with the Buccaneers) to Charlotte to meet the Patriots rather than returning to Cleveland to get his stuff. Then he spent the entire day off following last week’s game meeting with coaches to get caught up.
-
Mingo should bless his lucky stars. That does not mean that he will be all that and a bag of chips with the Pats.
-
Hope he does well enough. I can't see him having a big influence in our future, except he'll probably be the only player on NE's D capable of chasing RG3 down from behind for a 20 yard sack when we play in week 5. Looking forward to that.

"enthusiasm" will make up for the 70 pounds he gives up when attempting to set the edge.
"enthusiasm" will make up for the lack of BOTH awareness AND lateral agility he shows when either in the backfield whiffing on a tackle or after having dropped into a hook zone and attempting to cover the RB who's running right past him.
-
Belichick wont insist on trying to get him to do something on a regular basis (edge setting) that he isnt built for. I promise you belichick will find a way to keep mingo in open fluid space
