Barkevious Mingo Scouting Report
Barkevious Mingo I LSU I DE/OLB I 6042 I 241 I Junior 40 Time: 4.58 Overview: There’s a lot to love about Mingo but there are major concerns with his game. He played LE exclusively in 2012, lining up over the RT. He’s best suited to transition to a standup linebacker in the NFL or play LEO role in 4-3. Lacks the bulk to set the edge in the run at DE. Freakish athlete with natural movement skills and explosive burst off the edge….

A spectacular pass rusher with the strength…
Dion Jordan Scouting Report
Dion Jordan I Oregon I OLB/DE I 6062 I 248 I Senior 40 Time: 4.60 Overview: Dion Jordan plays the game at a different speed than most DE’s. He’s best suited to play as a rush linebacker in the 3-4 or SLB in the 4-3. I don’t think he’s going to maximize his abilities as a 4-3 DE unless he adds some bulk/strength. He was rumored to be playing this season in the 225 range. Jordan spent most of his senior season standing up and showed NFL…
Film Study: Making the case for BYU’s Ezekiel Ansah as a top ten pick
Here’s the backstory: Ezekiel Ansah came to BYU in 2008 from Ghana in the hopes of becoming a track star. He wound up on the BYU football team after some coaxing by teammates. Didn’t know how to put on football equipment. He’s 6’6″, 270 pounds and runs a 10.9 100 yard dash. With that story, it becomes real easy to label Ansah as raw. He’s a project with the Jason Pierre-Paul upside. That is the…
