Mingo is a raw rookie WR that isn't even coming off a dominant college career.  That has always made him a project.  I think Mingo while young actually projects best in the role Thielen has locked up.  

I agree, hes looking a slot in-waiting.......that makes me more upset about him being 39th overall pick. 

Right now the future looks like a young leading a dink and dunk for mingo and tremble...... fyi mingo is the youngest and tremble is only 23.

My take from that video is that Bryce is a legit talent with a lot of upside who was drafted by a clown show. The guy was cracking up about the pass protection and the lack of speed and separation of the wide receivers.  I doubt he laughs that much during his other video studies.  

He is also dogging the routes at times.

To be fair to JT, he is beating mostly on the overall offensive issues more than AT in this one.

Honestly, I think we can all agree on that.

The nice thing is we see that BY is mostly starting to be able to make some chicken salad out of all this chickenshit.

overall in his QB school....he spends most of his time talking about what is going on around Bryce Young.   That's what should make us feel good about Bryce.

He definitely has a crush on him. 

Also I think we can all see definite improvements over the season. If that can steadily continue for the rest of the year, that should make us all feel good.....about the QB. Now all that other poo.....lawd.

I am just going to keep beating on the coaching/scheme and the way the team is being built. Those two things do not seem to align at all.

totally agree.  the way they put this team together is mind boggling.  nothing fits together.

one thing fits into Frank's O.....Bryce Young.  The rest doesn't fit.  And they aren't altering things up enough given the talent we presently have.  I do fear it's just a matter of time before Bryce gets injured. 

You got an OL that can't protect that is asked to pass pro too much.  We have been painfully predictable.  Which just helps defenses attack you. You got WRs that can't get open.  You got absurd pressure coming at Young.   Eventually that ends poorly for Young.  An outcome JT alludes to often in his vids.  That, and it's basically impossible to have real QB success in what we are doing and have.

Yeah and it's painfully obvious that it isn't all personnel on that OL. Each player individually played better for the previous staff. They literally just look confused and not on the same page too much in the game. You see it with the TE's, the RB's....our pass protection is just not good. 

Ikey is an easy target but almost everyone has been having mental lapses and errors.

The WR's just seems like more taking these square pegs and hammering them into round holes. If you know you are struggling with separation, why are you running some of these plays? Why are we not trying everything possible to scheme people open instead of relying on our dudes to just line up ans beat the guy in front of them? Not saying we don't do that but we aren't exhausting all efforts to make this as easy as possible for what we have.

To me that is the biggest theme on offense so far this season. Mismatched parts and not trying to make it as simple as possible for the what we do have. Stop trying to pretend these are perfect parts.

previous staff asked them to run block most of the time.    and that's an easy life for a lineman. 

this staff is asking them to pass protect most of the time.  with opposing defenses trying to tee off on a young QB.....with WRs not being able to get open.   

and it still bothers me that never did simple things coming in like adding a legit RB for the type scheme we were going to be running.  I talked about it a lot this offseason.  Hubbard and Sanders were basically the same dude.  And it's not what this O was going to need often.  We were going to need that traditional 3rd down RB.  Who had hands, route running and most importantly could be relied on in pass pro.

Yeah these RB's are so bad in pass protection. 

IMO, Fitt has to be canned after this fiasco of an offseason. Not saying the staff doesn't deserve a lot of blame but you can't have this big of a disconnect between what you are trying to do on the field and how you are building the team.

And that is not even touching on his other insane blunders.

I have watched all his videos on Bryce this year and you very rarely, if ever, hear him really dog on Bryce about a throw or decision hes made that is really bad.

I think Mingo is slowly coming along and if he can get a consistent 4 to 5 catches a game things will open up.

I think the issue with Mingo is that he seems to have a definite ceiling. Doesn't mean he can develop into a useful player but he isn't going to be a primary threat or anyone that a defense has to plan to stop.

We have to get some more effective weapons in the offseason.

I see the opposite. He is physically gifted player who ran a backyard college offense. I feel his ceiling is not limited at all, its all about if he has it between the ears to figure out the NFL and the work ethic to go with it.

Mingo couldn't get open in college playing that backyard offense that helps players get free. Yet another swing and a miss by Fitt, this time costing draft capital.

    • I appreciate the honesty in your posts--I am not sure Canales is rusing(?) because I don't think we are good enough yet to draft players for depth on day 1.  I do think we are in limbo, fwiw.  At 19, I think you are drafting second rounders in the first.
    • We are in a unique situation here. Just my opinion. Three things: Moton’s playing health has been gradually declining as he is aging, while his contract is a drag on the payroll.  Something will give with him sooner than later but I think 2026 could be it.  So.. need a right tackle by 2027. At the latest.    Icky’s individual situation is unique as well. They would have had an extension done by now if not for the injury. We only have him for this year. With no assurance he will ever be the same player.  It would be reckless just to assume. Now we have Walker for one year. And that is a major relief. Maybe he is the answer, but the team that knows him best let him go and it was cheap for us to sign him. So how much did they value him?    We look to be needing two tackles by 2027.  And have poo for depth this year as well. So anyway we could draft a guy for 2027 RT and groom him this year, and see how Icky does, and act as needed in 2027. Spread out filling the two holes over 2 years.    Then I remember, hey if Bryce doesn’t get a Lot more consistent do they extend him? Hoping not, if he isn’t really good.    So then we are looking at the 2027 draft which people say is gonna be loaded with QBs. If we need a LT and a QB what is the pick gonna get spent on?   Taking into account the recovery success rates cited here on the Icky surgery, you might want to plan for him to not be the same player. rather than assume he will be and get caught with your pants down.  It is a tough situation.    And factor in that it is critically important to protect this QB, always, but especially this year where it is said to be make or break. And how you might feel about that.    All of it points to a real possibility that these things converge in the negative, like Bruce sucks and Icky is not the same. In that case if you want to be assured of getting LT secured, the only place you can do that through the draft could be very well be 2026 1st round.     For me, I would like to err on the side of caution.  Cover for these outcomes. It wouldn’t be fun. Added benefit is if we do have a tackle go down this year we will have a guy there. Because I don’t know what we have now.  
    • I agree. In a perfect world I wouldn’t want to draft another WR, but in this draft it’s fine based on the value of who will be there at #19.  All of the top tier guys worth pick #19 at other positions of need will be long gone. Only exception is Dillon Thieneman, but he’s almost a shoe in for the Vikings as the Harrison Smith replacement. Some posters on here want to draft an OT just to check a box without realizing the concerns and risk that comes along with said player. Sounds like XL to me… desperately drafting need… KC is a pretty safe player.  Produced all 3 years in college and last year in the SEC vs a lot of top corners in this years draft. He single handily dropped the South Carolina CB Brandon Cisse’s draft stock with how bad he abused him.   Sometimes it’s best to try and hit a double instead of going for the home run. This draft screams “go for the double”. Esp in the first.
