Jonathan Mingo scouting report ahead of 2023 NFL Draft

Shaun Calderon’s takes a closer look at Ole Miss WR Jonathan Mingo ahead of the 2023 NFL draft.

Jonathan Mingo is next up on our scouting report series. The Ole Miss wide receiver is someone who is climbing up draft boards as of late, and for good reason.

Mingo is a big-bodied wideout who has superb athleticism. Following his impressive pre-draft workouts, he received the third-highest “Relative Athletic Score” among all of the wide receivers in the class.

This feat is even more impressive when you realize that he stands at six-foot-two, weighing in at 220 pounds. Not to mention the fact that he combines his physically-imposing frame with legitimate 4.4 speed and a 39.5-inch vertical.

As always, this article is going to provide you with an educated opinion on the pros and cons of selecting the All-SEC wide receiver. I also briefly touch on the unfair narrative that many have created that Mingo is “the next A.J. Brown.”

But before we get started, a quick reminder that unless noted otherwise, all of the grades and individual rankings that are included are my own opinions.

The former Rebel is coming off a season in which he totaled 861 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Let’s take a deeper dive and see what else makes him such an intriguing prospect.
