Browns' Barkevious Mingo traded to Patriots

[jah]

Belichick would give a 5th in a heartbeat for a high upside player he can use on 84% of ST snaps

This. We need to stop thinking of him as a #6 overall pick pass rusher and instead as a special teams ace with potential to gain a role on defense. A fifth rounder sounds pretty fair for that. The only iffy thing is that it's just a one year rental.

we could sure use something like this last year ...



might be fun watching taylor wilson rg3 ... run

He's got some serious wheels!

I love the deal. If he plays well, we can recoup that 5th with a compensatory pick. If he plays extraordinarily, maybe it will be a 3 or 4 and we got a fantastic year. If he sucks, well, Little harm done.

Contract day would be a tremendous moment in NFL history, if Mingo were to play so well that he signed a 3rd round yielding contract.

Didn't say it was likely. ☺ Realistically it'll be a 7 or maybe 6, but it's possible. I guess.

I think he reups here.
He has a fan in BB and the office here I think he will reup.

I wasn't knocking the idea. I'd be all for it. Just imagine Goodell's face when he figured it all out...
