Mingo adds to Browns pass rush group
BEREA, Ohio -- The next time Joe Banner says the Cleveland Browns priority is to get after the quarterback and they are not leaning toward taking a quarterback in the first round of the NFL Draft well lets get on board.Because with the sixth pick, the Browns bypassed a quarterback (thank goodness) and took the best pass rusher available, which isnt all that bad when its all taken...

NFL Draft: Cleveland Browns Select Barkevious Mingo
With the 6th pick in the NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns selected Barkevious Mingo.
Mingo, a Junior Defensive End from LSU, is an impressive pass rusher who has been part of one of college football’s best defenses the last 3 seasons. With the Browns switching to a 3-4 defense they will hope Mingo can provide them the edge rush and consistent pressure the defense needs.
Here’s...
Browns select DE Barkevious Mingo at 6

Mingo (6-4, 241) ran a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash. NFLDraftScout.com described Mingo as a quick twitch pass rusher with extraordinary...

First Round NFL Draft Grades: Cleveland Browns
PICK: Barkevious Mingo, DE/OLB, LSUANALYSIS: I hate this pick. Mingo just ins't that good. Cleveland already got their pass rusher in free agency, and didn't need to take a chance on a bum like Mingo with the sixth overall selection. I think he will be a bust very early on, similar to Maybin in 2009. Cleveland will regret not taking Smith or Milliner here I believe.

Browns Select LSU LB Barkevious Mingo (Rd.1, No.6)
With the 6th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the Browns select LSU LB Barkevious Mingo. Mingo looks almost too lean to handle the physicality of NFL linemen, but has surprising strength to go along with the elite length and straight-line speed to rack up double-digit sack numbers (he had eight in 2011) and track down ball carriers (15 tackles for loss) as a 3-4 rush linebacker...

Really good spin move when it’s the right opportunity, but he spins too much, taking himself out of the play or just losing any leverage he might have had. Terrible at setting the edge. Needs to...
