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

[Shocker]

I get Moose vibes with Mingo.  Excited to see him develop 

[mc52beast]

We have a staff now that can actually coach players and get them to attain their potential. Let these guys learn the game before calling them bad picks.

Reminds me of Hakeem Nicks. Catches everything, good contact balance, and just has that attitude that he doesn’t care what CBs do.

[WOW!!]

BIG I !!!!!!

[pantherj]

Reminds me a little bit of Anquan Boldin.

Mingo reminds me a lot of AJ brown, and low and behold in his interview he said that was his favorite player to watch.

What does our WR depth chart look like now?  No idea how to rank them. I genuinely have no idea who  our #1 #2 or #3 is just looking at the names

I'd say

1. Thielen, 2. Chark, 3. Mingo/Marshall, 4. Mingo/Marshall, 5. Shenault

Mingo and Marshall likely fight it out for that 3rd spot in camp.

Chark is the number 1 at this point. Thielen isnt who he use to be. doesnt have the speed to seperate at this this stage in his career. will be playing second fiddle to Chark like he did with jefferson.

I love what I've seen from Mingo. Dude knows how to fight for the ball. I know Reich just said he'll have to fight for the job, but I gotta believe he'll see playing time.

[pantherj]

WR1 - Chark

WR2 - TMJ/Mingo

Slot - Thielen

We're kind of in trouble but it's ok we got our QB.

 

[amcoolio]

Thielen is a WR3 now in his career, but he's a damn good WR3 to have, Carolina will have him on the field in 3 WR sets often, and I imagine he'll be open a ton.

Mingo and TMJ will battle it out for the WR1, while Chark starts opposite.

The list of Wr's that were available at 80 or wherever we picked, not good. I think since we have Burns it'll be easier to have a committee approach at OLB vs hoping AT Perry or Boutte could be a starting receiver. Also you can't draft 2 sub 6' players back to back so Mingo was the right pick at the position.

There are a lot of factors like can Chark stay healthy? Will TMJ take the next leap in development? ETC, but it’s really not a terribly group of WRs at all. We also have Shenault for quick passes followed by YAC. Shenault and Mingo can make life difficult for a secondary trying to tackle them. Chark is a deep threat and Thielen is the sure handed possession WR. Add Sanders and Hurst and Young has a decent group around him.
