Podcast appearances and mentions of mekhi wingo

In this video, I break down the rookie performances of cornerback Terrion Arnold and defensive tackle Mekhi Wingo, highlighting their strengths and areas for growth based on their play so far this season. Using All-22 film, we'll dive into how Arnold is handling coverage responsibilities and how Wingo is contributing to his team's defensive front. Additionally, I explore a potential trade target for the Detroit Lions: edge rusher Josh Uche from the New England Patriots. We'll assess how Uche's skill set could fit into the Lions' scheme and what he could bring to their pass rush rotation as they push for a deep playoff run.

1. NFC North -Have you ever seen a better situation for a #1 overall pick to walk into? What can Bears fans realistically expect from Caleb Williams in his rookie season? -Do you think Kiran Amegadjie makes more sense as a long-term replacement for Braxton Jones at LT, or as a long-term replacement for Teven Jenkins at guard? -How good of a chance do you think Austin Booker has to develop into Montez Sweat's long-term bookend for the Bears? -What makes J.J. McCarthy and Kevin O'Connell a hand-in-glove fit schematically speaking? -What makes Dallas Turner potentially worth this massive price (six total picks) for the Vikings? -Do you anticipate Jordan Morgan being the Packers starting left tackle come Week 1 or do you see him starting his NFL career inside? -If one of Edgerrin Cooper or Javon Bullard (or both) makes a solid contribution this season, can we be very confident that this Packers defense finally plays up to their potential after two underwhelming years? -Would it be a massive disappointment if this 2024 Lions defense isn't the best D Dan Campbell has had in his time in Detroit thus far? -Would you be surprised to see either Christian Mahogany or Mekhi Wingo (or both) as a full-time starter in 2025? 2. NFC East -Why do you think the Commanders decided to go with Jayden Daniels over Drake Maye? -Even if it doesn't show up on the stat sheet, should we expect a pretty sizable impact from Ben Sinnott this season? -Would you bet on both Tyrone Tracy, Jr. and Theo Johnson becoming foundational pieces for this Giants offense along with Malik Nabers? -If Tyler Nubin and/or Andru Phillips makes a solid impact this year, are the Giants likely a top-12 defense or better? -In 2023, the Eagles surrendered 35 TD passes and only intercepted 9. With Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean now in the fold, how much should we expect those numbers to improve in Philly's favor this season? -What makes Jalyx Hunt such an intriguing project for Vic Fangio to work with? -Do you anticipate Cooper Beebe starting at the pivot for Dallas in 2024? -How optimistic should the Cowboys be about Marshawn Kneeland becoming a long-term defensive cornerstone like Demarcus Lawrence has been? 3. NFC South -Was Xavier Legette's breakout campaign last year a fluke or was it a sign of things to come? -Do you think Jonathon Brooks is likely to be the centerpiece of the Panthers offense in Year 1 of the Dave Canales era? -If Kirk Cousins shows even the slightest signs of decline between now and 2026, should the Falcons hand the reins over to Michael Penix, Jr. two years from now? -We all know Raheem Morris can maximize defensive talent, thus are you bullish on two of these three picks (Ruke Orhorhoro, Bralen Trice, Brandon Dorlus) being hits? -Are you at least somewhat puzzled by Taliese Fuaga's schematic fit with the Saints? -If the 2024 season goes south for the Saints, should they be willing to start Spencer Rattler for say 3-5 games? -What does Graham Barton offer the Bucs from Day 1 and how much improvement should we expect from their running game this season? -Do you think Chris Braswell has what it takes to become a full-time starter for the Bucs? 4. NFC West -How does Darius Robinson improve this Cardinals defensive front from Day 1 and what is the best way to utilize him? -What made Trey Benson stand out from all the other running backs in this class and do you believe he's fully capable of shouldering a heavier workload at the NFL level? -Is it fair to expect a DROY level performance from Byron Murphy this year? -Can you see Blake Corum getting 35-40% of the carries for the Rams this year? -What makes Ricky Pearsall the ideal WR for a Kyle Shanahan offense? -Would you be surprised to see both Renardo Green and Malik Mustapha end up as starters for the 49ers by 2025, if not sooner?

The LSU Tigers' number one offseason priority was to fill the hole left by the departure of defensive tackles Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo who decided to forego their NCAA eligibility to enter the NFL Draft. While head coach Brian Kelly is very encouraged by the work 5th-year senior Jacobian Guillory has put in this offseason, the Tigers are still in desperate need of another starter to complement Guillory. However, the top three DTs they targeted in the spring transfer portal have committed elsewhere.

LSU Tigers head coach Brian Kelly shared with the media after the spring game that defensive tackle would be their main focus and number one priority in the spring transfer portal window. LSU lost its two starting DTs, Mekhi Wingo and Maason Smith, to the NFL Draft this past weekend and there is no clear heir apparent currently on the roster. While LSU has targeted several players in the portal to fill that position, they host one today. Damonic Williams, a two-year starting DT out of TCU, is the second rated defensive lineman in the spring transfer portal class. Williams took visits with the Texas Longhorns, Oklahoma Sooners, and Missouri Tigers this past week and now finds himself in Baton Rouge taking a visit with the Tigers. Plus, six former Tigers were drafted this past weekend in the NFL Draft. Former LSU QB and Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels was selected second overall to the Washington Commanders, followed by Malik Nabers to the Giants and Brian Thomas Jr. to the Jaguars in the first round. Smith is also heading to Jacksonville in addition to DT Jordan Jefferson. DT Mekhi Wingo was the final Tiger off the board as the Detroit Lions selected him in the sixth round of the Draft. Which Tiger is poised for the most success this upcoming season at the next level? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

LSU Tigers head football coach Brian Kelly evaluated his bottom-ranked defense in 2023 and decided it was time for a change at defensive coordinator and up and down the entire defensive coaching staff. But how much better can they be this season on the defensive line without the proven talent? Former LSU defensive tackles Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo both decided to leave LSU to declare for the NFL Draft after this past season, which left LSU barren of experience and proven play-making ability at that position. Former five-star defensive lineman Dominick McKinley returns for his sophomore season and LSU landed JUCO transfer and former Georgia Bulldog commit Shone Washington, but the position lacks depth. Where will the Tigers turn to bolster up the defensive front?

Mike hall, Mekhi Wingo, and Mason Smith all have high marks as far as market share in concerned and could help Cleveland solidify their defensive tackle room for the future.

The LSU Tigers started spring practice on Tuesday and the team will look much different than it did last season. Those reading that sentence with the offense in mind may shudder. But those reading that with the defense in mind may gleam with optimism. The LSU defense last season ranked at the bottom of college football in nearly every statistical category which ultimately led to head coach Brian Kelly moving on from defensive coordinator Matt House and completely overhauling the defensive coaching staff. So how much work is cut out for new defensive coordinator Blake Baker, formerly with the Missouri Tigers, and how much improvement is realistic to expect from one of the worst units in the sport last year? First and foremost, it starts on the defensive line. LSU lost it's two starting defensive tackles, Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo, to the 2024 NFL Draft. Not only does it hurt to lose two playmakers, LSU also doesn't have a clear incumbent on the roster. Bo Davis, formerly with the Texas Longhorns, was hired as LSU's defensive line coach this offseason and is widely regarded as one of the best at that position. But if he doesn't have much talent to work with, how much can we expect him to level up the D front? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

On today's episode, Kay reacts to running back Aaron Jones signing with the Minnesota Vikings, quarterback Kirk Cousins joining the Atlanta Falcons, Saquon Barkley going to the Philadelphia Eagles, and the New York Giants trading for defensive end Brian Burns. Then, former Pro Bowl offensive tackle Taylor Lewan discusses Cousins' fit with the Falcons, Russell Wilson working with Arthur Smith in Pittsburgh, the early free agency moves made by the Tennessee Titans, the beef between Saquon and former NFL running back Tiki Barber, and the top offensive lineman in this year's draft. Next, Buffalo Bills offensive tackle Dion Dawkins talks about his new deal with the team and ongoing beef with the New York Jets. Finally, former LSU defensive tackle Mekhi Wingo shares the part of his game that's not being highlighted enough ahead of the draft, being compared to Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, and what you need to know about quarterback Jayden Daniels. 

LSU has Spring Football right around the corner, but they also face the NFL Draft AND Harold Perkins Jr.'s position change. The 2024 NFL Draft Class is headlined by Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. Jayden and Malik both declined to participate in the NFL Draft, but other Tigers such as Maason Smith, Mekhi Wingo, Andre Sam and Jordan Jefferson have all competed so far. Blake Baker came in and diagnosed the issue so far potentially, and it seems to start with getting Harold Perkins Jr. back inside. With all of these changes, HOW can Brian Kelly help LSU climb back to the top of College Football? Find out today because... its possible

Mike broke down his top defensive tackles in the 2024 NFL Draft. He evaluated Texas' Byron Murphy II, his 16th overall rated player, Illinois' Jer'Zhan "Johnny" Newton, and Texas' T'Vondre Sweat. Mike also shared his thoughts on LSU's Mekhi Wingo, Maason Smith, and Jordan Jefferson. 

Mike, Bobby, and Charlie reported on the Pelicans-Knicks injury update. The guys answered a question from a WWL listener about Jayden Daniels' upcoming interview with the Saints. Joe DeLeone, a college football & NFL Draft analyst, joined Mike and Bobby. DeLeone evaluated LSU's Mekhi Wingo, Tulane's Michael Pratt, and Florida State's Jared Verse. DeLeone shared his thoughts on UCLA's Laiatu Latu, Missouri's Darius Robinson, and LSU's Malik Nabers. Mike, Bobby, and Steve played their daily "Triple Option" segment. Bobby reported on the increase in the annual NFL salary cap. They listened to Monty Williams' postgame tirade. 

LSU head football coach Brian Kelly sat down with Wilson Alexander of The Baton Rouge Advocate and shared that elite defensive talent Harold Perkins will move back to the inside linebacker position for the 2024 season, likely Perkins' last season with the Tigers before declaring for the NFL Draft. As a freshman, Perkins played a fluid, edge rusher/quarterback spy role. In his second season, Kelly and former defensive coordinator Matt House wanted Perkins to play a true position and felt his most natural one was at ILB. So Perkins played that position in the first game of the 2023 season against Florida State and was essentially a non-factor versus the Seminoles. Perkins recorded five tackles and zero sacks against FSU, a far cry from his impact the season prior. Kelly moved Perkins to SAM linebacker for the rest of last season, but is willing to try it again this year.Kelly overhauled the coaching staff this offseason bringing in former Missouri DC Blake Baker to serve in the same role with the Bayou Bengals. Baker has a proven track record of developing and refining linebackers and even has a history of doing so at LSU. In 2021, Baker served as the linebackers coach under DC Daronte Jones' staff. Under the coaching of Baker, former LSU LB Damone Clark had his best season in the purple and gold. But Perkins role is not the only one changing – fourth year offensive lineman Kimo Makane'ole will move to the defensive side of the ball to add depth to a defensive tackle room left thin after Mekhi Wingo and Maason Smith declared for the NFL Draft. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedIn These days every new potential hire can feel like a high stakes wager for your small business.

LSU defensive linemen Maason Smith and Mekhi Wingo both declared for the NFL Draft, leaving Brian Kelly, new defensive coordinator Blake Baker, and new defensive line coach Bo Davis slim pickings of defensive linemen on LSU's roster.

It has been a great start for LSU Tigers football in 2024 – head coach Brian Kelly got commitments from the #1 overall player in the 2025 class in QB Bryce Underwood to go along with the #1 wide receiver and running back in that class. LSU hired defensive coordinator Blake Baker from Missouri and defensive line coach Bo Davis from Texas who is widely regarded as the top defensive line coach in the country. Also, Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban retired from Alabama. But it hasn't been all good. Defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo announced he would declare for the NFL Draft after LSU defeated Wisconsin in the ReliaQuest Bowl on New Years Day. Interior defensive lineman Maason Smith followed suit just over a week after. Interior defensive line is a position of need for the Tigers that becomes that much more urgent with Smith's departure. Who could step up and fill in those holes next year? What do the coaching staff moves and recruiting wins mean for the longterm health of the program? Locked On's official recruiting insider, Brian Smith, joins Caroline Fenton of Locked On LSU to break down the latest at LSU, what the Tigers are getting with their most recent commitments, and the talent that Blake Baker and Bo Davis will work with in the 2024 season.

LSU Tigers head football coach Brian Kelly shared injury updates ahead of his teams road trip to Tuscaloosa this weekend and shared that starting DL Mekhi Wingo underwent surgery during the bye week and will be out for the next six weeks, which could end his season depending on LSU's postseason bid. Wingo was granted illustrious number 18 for this season for his leadership on and off the field so being without his leadership and dominant presence on the field will be a huge hit for this LSU defense that has struggled this season. But Wingo's absence only scratches the surface of the bad news defensively as Kelly shared that the secondary will be without Zy Alexander who is dealing with a leg injury after the Army game, Denver Harris, and Duce Chestnut against Alabama leaving a trio of true freshmen, Sage Ryan, and. Laterrance Welch as their available corners. While those players do not have a lot of experience and will have a tough test heading into Bryant-Denny Stadium, coach Kelly remains optimistic, “I think we've been at it long enough where these guys are ready to go. They've got no choice – these guys are ready to play. They are young, many have said inexperienced. I get that they haven't played a lot of SEC games. But these guys are really good players and they'll compete for LSU.” So what does that mean for the Tigers against Alabama? Can they do what few have done, go into Bryant-Denny Stadium and beat Nick Saban two years in a row, with such little depth defensively?

LSU football has announced which players will wear the most legendary numbers within the history and tradition of the Tigers program. Historically, number 18 is given to the player that displays great leadership and personifies the principles and spirit of LSU football going back to Matt Mauck and his leadership for the 2003 team that brought LSU it's first national title game in nearly fifty years. Most recently BJ Ojulari was given the honor and now it will go to defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo. Wingo has been a difference maker on the field since he transferred into the program from Missouri last season and has been just as much if not even more impactful as a leader in the locker room. Number 7 on the other hand, the second of the two meaningful jersey numbers for the purple and gold, traditionally has gone to the teams best playmaker. Whether it was Patrick Peterson or Tyrann Mathieu who solidified LSU as DBU; or Leonard Fournette or DJ Chark who consistently made explosive plays offensively, that number has always gone to a skill position player. Until now. Sophomore offensive tackle Will Campbell will be the first lineman to ever wear the hallowed number in a shocking yet appropriate decision made by Brian Kelly and the coaching staff. So what do those moves mean for the leadership of this team? How do LSU Tigers fans feel about the shift in one of the the football program's most revered traditions?
