Round 2 - The Carolina Panthers Select Jonathan Mingo - WR - Mississippi

[bobcat91]

Not a big fan of this. He's not Brown or Metcalf. Good not great hands and is intimidated but physical play. Watch his game vs Mississippi State last year. He got hit hard the first drive and wasn't a factor the rest of the game. Wanted Sanders or the LSU edge more.

By taking Mingo we essentially lose out on a starting caliber EDGE there won’t be one @93

So David Tepper is the biggest smokescreen? In his presser yesterday he said with Bryce Young, you didn't need to pick the best WR and can invest in the defense. With the #39 pick, the Panthers select a WR! lol 

I thought about that lol I still think we sign either Floyd or Yannick tho.

Apparently kicking that can down the road. I'd expect a vet pickup in the weeks to come. There was a lot of talk that teams were not impressed with the depth at edge.

Not sure about this one. He seems similar to theilen and tmj , would've rather got Hyatt or an edge 

It’s all about making it as easy as possible for our rookie QB. Defense is taking a backseat for now.

I think Fitterer looks to freeagency and  signs someone to play across from Brian Burns 

[WOW!!]

I’m a little iffy on this.. Didn’t see it as a 2nd round need.. Unless injuries happen don’t see him on the field..

[WOW!!]

Yep hopefully they have a deal ready for Yannick or Floyd

[pantherclaw]

I wasn't expecting Mingo to be available,  I am excited!

[Dragoon11]

Really like this pick! He's got that "dog" in him. He has that potential to take it the distance every time he touches the ball! 6' 2" 225 lbs and runs a 4.46. Supposedly, Smitty was scouting this guy.

I see this kid making an instant impact. Pray he stays healthy! Him and TMJ could be a great tandem! 

Young to Mingo... will be hearing this a lot by the commentators!!

[TheSpecialJuan]

I wasn’t expecting a WR this early but it’s a strong selection. Mingo is too talented to pass up on

I’d be thrilled if we added one of them

Can't guarantee Chark will play 17 games. Young needs weapons.
