TRADE MIXON
#1
After watching him.. he can't break tackles or block.. we signed Gio.. let him start and get maybe something for Mixon

Trade him? I say we keep him. I can't wait until he rushes for 312 yards on the season and holds out for a contract worth $18 million a year.

Mixon had 2 yards today. Gio had 0 yards on 4 carries.

Neither one is getting room to run.

Mixon is a guy who wants to win though and I can see him getting disgruntled with this front office the same way Dillon did. So trading him is an option. Gio, however, is not a option at starting RB.

Well, we pay Gio Top 15 money per year...but yes not a starter.

Remember when we extended him? It was a sign that Zac was going to use him ALOT.

There were at least 3 plays today when Andy and Joe were out of sync on the handoffs. Hard for a RB to get much yardage when the first person he hits is his QB

Mixon is the starter.. he has done nothing.. Gio is a cheaper option... trade him get a draft pick for him.. we signed Gio for 3 year I believe... 

Gio is cheaper than Mixon

Cheaper (after Mixon gets extended, but not currently), but not better.

We cant run..... we talk about benching Dalton but we actually are worse running than passing. lets make a change at RB.. bench Mixon or trade him...

Maybe he would be using him a lot if our o line didn’t suck. Not using Mixon a lot either. Everyone said this was going to be a run first offense which is what we needed with an average QB and affordable stud RB. Unfortunately nobody told the FO you still need a line to run block.

When you never have your identity from the start everything is gonna look ugly.

We have signed Gio.. Mixon is a better trade value.. trade him now gives us a better draft pic.. correct ?

Oh they front office has made A LOT of moves to address the line. They've just failed on most.

How come when it comes to making excuses for Dalton it’s “not even Joe Montana or Tom Brady could succeed behind this OL” but we want to trade our highly talented young RB and expect our #2 (who’s been even worse) to do any better?

pretty simple to me.. Dalton does not run the Ball.. Mixon does.. also I did not say dont trade Dalton.. but if we assume Mixon is a better trade value than Dalton.. trade Mixon.. correct
