Was it @mayoclinic who was in love with him coming out of the 2014 draft?

Mingo, McLellin and Van Noy. All high draft pick busts. Hopefully at least 1 of them turns it around here.

We downgraded a 6th rounder to a 7th for him. Safe to say his spot isn't safe.

Are you kidding? He's the AC/DC of football.

People watched Ziggy and by doing so KVN aswell. In college he made big plays all the time. If i remmeber correctly then he had 3-4 forced fumbles and 2-3 picks doing the 2013 season. Game vs ND was awesome.... Tuitt & Nix 3 on one DL and Ziggy & KVN on the other side...

We just gotta make sure that this Kyle Van Noy... is that his name? ... anyway, this Kyle Van Noy person is the next big thing. #notawickprick

LMAO.

Why not a guy like willie young if he's available?

Is that before 1985 or after?

If anyone has any stats on him or film, please post. I wonder if he plays special teams.

Mingo to me's the biggest shock. I thought he would excel at the next level.

My recollection is that the draft forum was high on him for 2013 but he decided not to declare. Then he didn't overwhelm his senior season, and then his combine measurable didn't stand out. He wound up not being on most people's boards by the end - basically fearing that he would turn out exactly as he has to date.

Have fun with the 2014 mock draft thread if you're interested... The 2014 Mock draft Thread.

All possible replacements for Collins.

I would have been excited had it been a guy like aaron lynch who has alot of potential.

I would have been satisfied if it was for a guy like Kuechly but oh well, just another BB-botched acquisition

 

[IllegalContact]

dude's awesome.......he's a f*cking beast

 

[aluminum seats]

In a couple of months we'll wonder what we ever did without him.

Typically, players aren't available for trade less than 3 months after signing an extension.

If just 1 of those 3 turned it around here, I would hope it's Mingo.
