I like that feedback mindbreaker. i guess what i am trying to say is that mingo is a project for the future. i believe the saints are in a win now at all cost mode for the next 2-3 years and cant afford to take a risk with mingo. for all i know, mingo may turn out to be the next big thing in several years. But i will side with my gut until otherwise proven that i would rather not take that gamble.

if it were up to me, if jarvis isnt at 15, i would trade down and see what is there. jmo

Jarvis isn't a for sure player either. He might be more of a liability than Mingo. Health problems have to be considered, plus his ability to play the run is a huge weakness. If anything Mingo is a better all around player. He might have only had 4.5 sacks, but that doesn't tell the whole story. I watched every game 2-3 times last year and he was very disruptive for most games. In 3 years he accumulated 27 QB hurries, 29 TFL, and 14 sacks. Pretty damn good production.

Jason Pierre Paul only had 6.5 sacks his one year at USF. Chandler Jones never had more than 4.5 sacks in his 3 seasons at Syracuse. Aldon Smith only had 4.5 in his last year. Point is that stats can be misleading
