With the 109th pick in the NFL draft the boys select Johnathon Mingo

The Lance trade was the epitome of stupid. We already knew a long time ago where we stand with this GM. A fool with no accountability who actually thinks he's doing a good job.
 
He did just to con fans into thinking he did something at the trade deadline. He thinks we are dumb

He does, dude is like a politician and we are all morons. Then they get made when they are called out on their lies and deceptions.
 
Not that 4th round picks don't matter, we definitely have found guys in that round that have turned out to be steals. However, I have a hard time criticizing a team for throwing a dart with a day 3 pick to try to get more out of a player drafted much higher in the last couple of years. There are worse trades this team has made than Mingo and Lance.

The front office has definitely given us reasons to criticize them, but doing it over a day 3 pick that has a 10% chance of success anyway just seems like a small potatoes argument.
 
Our last 4th round picks included the likes of Viliami Fehoku and Josh Ball. Mingo sounds about right anyway.

You are not taking into account how valuable our picks are going to be in the upcoming draft; Jethro made this trade AFTER DAK was injured so a SENSIBLE NON SENILE FOOTBALL PERSON would not have spent it on Mingo

Mingo wasn't an exciting acquisition to me, but clearly someone in the organization really liked him and thinks he has potential to contribute. I doubt Jones was the guy that evaluated Mingo or even knew who he was. I personally wouldn't have made the trade, but I'm not going to slaughter an organization over sending away a 4th round pick.
