Mingo needs more targets

[coult44]

He’s been targeted and hasn’t done anything. He’s picked where he left off in Carolina.

I don’t know if he’s good or not. There’s zero chance anyone can tell based on the chances he’s got since he’s been here. And if you try, you’re lying. There hasn’t been one good ball thrown to him.

I'd rather have that 4th rounder

Agree would rather have the fourth rounder . Too late that trains left the station . I agree with the OP target him take some of the heat off a beaten up 88 .

Give the guys touches who have actually built up a repertoire with Rush. There is no way to really mix in Mingo during the season, that comes in OTA’s and training camp. He is nothing but a wasted, active roster spot at this point.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

He should be used how we attempted to use gallup. He's bigger , faster with a higher vertical. Give him more slants and deep routes.

Do you suppose the Lions, Chiefs, Eagles etc. spend much time speculating about someone who ordinarily would not get drafted?

 

[Xeven]

Or! Let h8m go and get a good WR?

 

[RonWashington]

He’s a big target with vertical no reason to let 5 games left on the season go by without seeing what you have going into 25. Show him the $$$

And with recent 6th and 7th rounders Flournoy & Brooks hanging around the rim as well as 3rd rounder Tolbert can the Cowboys turn there attention elsewhere in the draft ?

We have Rush throwing it have to lower expectations for any wr

LOL, best post of the week.

Is this sarcasm??????? Lol, man I swear, they say I make stupid post, well (sarcasm) this post makes no sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The value, creativity, and the time we spend drawing up curl routes, and abandoning the run, it takes TIME to learn this offense to do all of that in which it entails!!! lol

that's the problem with this team now, being satisfied with what we have just because we have it. Just because we have depth etc doesn't mean it's good depth

Dak wasn’t exactly Dan Fouts this season either . I’ve always thought the targets are on the roster it’s the delivery system the pentagon needs to look at .

There is a chance, a chance that Mingo can’t get open and when he does there is also a chance, a chance that he can’t catch the ball. Just keeping it real.

I'm hoping if McCarthy is gone next year that the next head coach will figure out how to use him like an Edelman or even a Beasley. Got to hit him underneath and let him run.

Hoping we get a better No. 2 next year and make Turpin the No. 3.

You're comparing Turpin to 2 of the best slot route runners in the past 15 years. Turpin is nothing like either player outside of being similar in height to Beasley. Also in Edelman's case, he played at close to 200 lbs. and could absorb a lot of contact across the middle and around the LOS.
Now I do agree with your overall point, that a legitimate #2 WR needs to be acquired first. Then it would be easier to devise a plan for Turpin and get him out there as a 3rd or 4th option behind CD, Ferguson and a legit #2 WR.

I just looked at Mingo a bit more. Small body of work in the NFL and didn’t produce a lot in college. His catch / target ratios are not good. Especially for a big guy. He definitely looks the part and is supposed to be a hard worker. There is a long line of these types of guys that aren’t good football players. I am dumbfounded they gave up a 4 for him. This upcoming draft is pretty deep with wideouts.

Why?

Get open. Make catches. He sucked in Carolina. We over paid. And now we are stuck with him. Stupid trade.

The same approach with Dak going all the way back to HS. Rush is actually more accurate than Dak. He just has a weenie arm.

6-2 220.
4.46 40 time

nice trade.

Yea but between this incompetent Play caller and rush, no room for promise

More accurate when everything goes right sure. Thats rare though

 

[charron]

There is a reason Carolina let him go. Mingo is a decoy at best right now. He needs an off-season so he can become a serviceable jag the next 2 years.

 

[Creeper]

I think Rush just needs to throw a good pass when he is open.
