Browns' Barkevious Mingo traded to Patriots

[RobertWeathers]

I guess I kinda saw the OLB/DE position here as one with a surplus of quality-NFL talent. Very interesting move. Not sure what to make of it- yet.

Sam Gash ... Max Lane ... Bronko Nagurski ... **** Butkus ...

There can only be one! One wrecking ball known by one name. He is larger than life... GRONK!

Dion Jordan, Dee Milliner and Luke Joeckel for the 2013 top 10 draft class set?

 

[Reckedtrek]

This is correct. An hour ago he sucked and probably shouldn't have been in the league. But an hour ago he was a Brown. Now he's a future Hall of Famer. What a move by Belichick, this guy is awesome.

Right.

In this years draft there's an Air Force safety called Steelhammer. What a name for a safety.

It's pretty obvious that Belichick is looking to go with a rotation of pass rushers this year similar to what the Seahawks had in 2013. Hopefully the idea pays dividends and the Pats will have fresh bodies deep into the fourth quarter of games that can get upfield quickly and after the quarterback.

Long overdue.. hoped it would happen before camp so he can experience an entire offseason in our system..

Am very intrigued and excited what we can get out of him..

BB has SEC'd this defense a bit of late: Mingo, the two Jones' and Anthony Johnson.

The Bruce Irvin role seems like the right type of role for Mingo.

Oooh... ooooh... plus a triple word score...

I can top that with his brother Hughtavious

 

[jboston19]

We sent a 5th round pick.

I doubt he'll be a cut at that price.

Thats why this move is curious. I thought that they had a pretty decent rotation already.

You can never have too many pass rushers.

There was a MLB for the Irish back in the 80s named Michael Stonebreaker.

Yup, seems like there's an actual plan for him.

I was always partial to Brian Baldinger myself... sounds very painful

Josh Gordon?
Are Branch and Knighton both on this team.
