Why the Jonathan Mingo trade could haunt Dallas in 2025

[Chasing6]

hes a 2nd round pick. Top 40.

lets see what the kid can do in camp.

McClay thinks he can play WR2.

At this point that is all we can do. Let's see how he responds at camp.

If Mingo doesn't get targets and produce, this will haunt the Jones clan all year.

Why the Jonathan Mingo trade could haunt Dallas in 2025
3/1/2025

The new league year begins in a few weeks, which means many transactions will occur throughout the NFL. Trades will almost certainly happen. However, one trade in particular the Dallas Cowboys made last season may have lingering effects at the worth possible time.

The trade in question is the Cowboys acquiring Jonathan Mingo at the trade deadline from the Carolina Panthers for a fourth-round pick in this upcoming draft. The trade caught many off guard, likely because the Cowboys aren’t usually active during the deadline. Secondly, the compensation given for Mingo was laughable.

We draft crap or we trade for crap.
Not a big difference and so nothing to worry about.

Unless you are dependend on a-social media and need those clicks.

Jaylon Smith was a second round pick.

So was Trysten Hill.

How did they work out? Taco Charlton was a first round pick.

Where someone is drafted means nothing. Lance was a third overall pick. He played like a UDFA.

We don't need no stinkin 4th rounders!

 

[America's Cowboy]

The trade was made for one reason. Jerry was in the middle of being told by everyone how he completely screwed up the offseason and how the Cowboys were out of it and should be sellers at the deadline and Jerry kept telling everyone we were still in it in a desperate attempt to remain relevant and reverse the narrative that his incompetence as a GM was the main story of the 2025 season and the reason we stunk. So Jerry makes a trade thinking it convinced anyone other than his equally dopey son that we were actually still in it. Add to that the inability that this team has to understand that college scouting reports have little (not none, but little) value once a player has been in the NFL for a couple of years and there you go, we trade a valuable pick for a guy who probably shouldn't be dressing on game day on a decent team.

Jerry made another dumb trade (like he did with Trey Lance) to silence his constant critics and try to keep his stadium games full. The more his critics complain, the more Jerry notices and makes dumb moves.

He runs a 4.46

Built like Dez.

Give a kid a chance.

Big Mike didn’t even try to use the kid.

Randall Williams was big and fast, too. Didn't make him a good receiver. I didn't see much separation by Mingo in the short time he has been here. You can't just run by NFL corners, who are just as fast if not faster.

Have to be able to learn the offense and it takes time to build trust with your QB, especially when you can't run consistent routes.
