Jonathan Mingo is very much in the build of Deebo Samuel, albeit a bigger Deebo, but similar in traits and skills either way. Mingo’s usage was much of the same of Deebo’s in college, stretching the field vertically with his route-running prowess and speed to get downfield and crafting manufactured touches moving from sideline to sideline trying to get him in space. Mingo will be a much more productive pro than he was in college.

Jonathan Mingo scouting notes

Pros:

• Good speed, but might be a step slow to be very good. Should run around a 4.5-4.6 forty. 
• Accelerates very well. 
• Smart route runner. Very nuanced with his route-running ability. 
• Very often wins at the release, especially on a deep ball. 
• Flashes the ability to secure catches through brutal contact. 
• Good deep threat. 
• Excellent run after the catch ability – shows solid contact balance to break tackles in the open field and gain additional yards. 
• Strong run blocker on the perimeter. Does a good job locking down boundary defenders. 

Cons:

• Struggles with consistency. Struggled with concentration drops. 
• Broke his foot in practice preparing for Alabama in 2021. Has overall struggled to stay healthy.
