This is exactly my thought and why I want Jones. I think Jones will be a monster this year. I think Mingo could by next year. I'd be happy with Mingo, but I really think Jones is a game changer.
15 is kind of a shitty spot to draft in, especially in a draft that isn't very deep.
It's a spot where you can take a small risk on a player with an incredibly high ceiling and a guy that fits your scheme. Mingo has substantial room for growth while Jones is close to maxing out his frame and potential. Taking a gamble on Jones' spinal condition could also be considered risky.
Mingo can be a contributor this year, but he will wreak havoc on offenses for years to come if he's developed properly.

I really dont understand how some in this thread can argue that mingo has a higher bust factor. worst case scenario, mingo doesnt reach his full potential but still contributes as a rush end/olb. jarvis jones worst case and very real scenario, he has a spinal or neck injury in his first season and never plays again. combine that with IMO mingo having a slight edge in work ethic/character and it's a push at best, with mingo actually being the safer pick of the two.

15 has been a really good spot in drafts past. And this is a really deep draft as far as defensive players go. You rarely have a draft full of guys like Jordan, Jones, Mingo, Loutouiioiuo, Richardson, Trufant, Jones and Flloyd.
