With a name like Barkevious Mingo, he has to be a Dawg

The Cleveland Browns selected Barkevious Mingo with the 6th pick of the 2013 NFL Draft. The defensive end from LSU recorded 38 tackles (8.5 for losses) and 4.5 sacks in 2012. Mingo is a quick pass rusher at 6-4, 241 pounds, and ran 4.6 40-yard dash. He was 2nd-team all-SEC as a junior.

In 3 seasons, Mingo recorded a total of 15 sacks to go with 119 career tackles, 4 forced fumbles and 11 pass deflections.

Although he played DE in college, the Browns would use him as an OLB. With Paul Kruger at one OLB and Mingo at the other OLB, the Browns hope they can now rush the passer which Cleveland hasn't had since Jamir Miller.
