If memory serves, Mitchell actually had no elegibility left when he left last year. Ian Scott was one of the only underclassmen we had leave early, and he was a junior.
As for his potential, he was kind of like Alex Brown, in that he was more of a speed guy than a power guy. Not to say either had no power, but more to say that Brown had tons of speed, so they put him at right end, while Mitchell had a better balance between speed and power, so they pretty much shuffled him all over the place. After Brown left, he was pretty well the force on the D-line.
When I saw the Broncos picked him up, I figured he'd do fine once he gained a few pounds...similar to what Chicago has done with Brown.
We'll see when he gets healthy next year.
