I like the kid, and he has potential, but considering everything involved it's more glass half empty than full for me. Not Mims per say, just the circumstances surrounding the pick. I hope he balls out! But I have concerns as we all should.
Completely understand Coach. I think the Trent Brown addition made this pick possible. We will see how much Mims plays
this year, but with his balance, athleticism, feet, size and strength I think he will impress. But only Frank Pollack could mess
this guy up lol

I have absolutely zero faith in Pollack being able to do that.
Yeah, I getcha.
We got some new coaches added though and Mims is such a talent that actually plays polished, even with the lack of snaps.
The film don't lie, Mims looks great in the film against top competition. Looked the best of the OT's against JT the Buckeyes End.

Was going to say the same thing, but you beat me to it Nepa. Maybe our new coaches will help, can't hurt.
Heard Rascati coached Dalton Risner too, maybe we pick him up after the Draft.
