If Jonathan Mingo makes the 53-man roster

If mingo make this team I will throw up.

Lamb
Pickens
Flournoy
Turpin
Brown

That's about as good as it will potentially get without the FO doing something completely stupid.
Even if they keep 6 WRs, Mingo should not make the team because that would mean going short at another position and cutting someone like Julius Wood or Justin Barron or even Israel Abanikanda, for arguments sake.
 
I love Turpin as a returner, but the jet sweep no longer works, and he's hard to get the ball to in coverage.

If they have another decent returner.....?

But I definitely keep Turpin over Mingo and Valdez-Scantling.
But did you love his return game last year? The jogging and 5 yard returns can be matched by someone else.

Teams don't punt to him.

He's fragile and so specific. If he can't be a big part of the offense, might be time to cut bait.

But not for Mingo or Scantling. Those dudes add nothing.

He is too fragile to be running the ball on offense. He specialty is being in space, our him back where he belongs. With a much improved defense, he will have a lot more punt return opportunities, but most likely less kick off returns.

Unfortunately his extension, was a reflection of playing some WR.

I dunno. I saw him catch most kicks last year and jog with 6.0 speed while looking for a hole to run through. He fails the eye test in that regard and it looked like he was saving his energy to play offense.

Every punt team is going to try and force him to make a fair catch.

With the kickoff rule change I was expecting more from him and it did not happen.
 
Turpin must have pictures of Jerry. I think his position should be challenged.
First-team All-Pro (2024)
Second-team All-Pro (2025)
3× Pro Bowl (2022, 2024, 2025)
2× NFL kickoff return yards leader (2024, 2025)

He has proven his worth on the field. HIs position is very secure as it should be.
