I'm not down on Mingo at all but do rate Jordan a step higher. Things I like more are that he is already polished in coverage. At 6'6" he might be the prototypical answer to covering the Grahams and Gronks of the NFL. They both played lighter and gained weight postseason. Jordan looks a lot more fuller and stouter physically after the gain. Mingo still looks a bit light to me. Of course they both have been spectacular in drills even with the added pounds.

This is a valid argument and much better than the Mingo will be a huge bust but we can't miss on Jordan talk I have heard

I dont get the Varraco hate


I don't think it's hate as much as people don't like safetys drafted that early. LaRon Landry, Michael Huff, Jenkins, Merriweather. They are all good players, but not what you would expect a top of the first round guy to be.

Fair enough. I just don't get how people can like Ansah, Mingo or Jordan and hate the other. All similar and all based on potential and all have some weakenss, be it size (Jordan/Mingo), stamina or football knowledge (Ansah). We'd be lucky to get any of these guys.
