Only three RBs in Bengal history have had at least 300 carries in a season (Corey Dillon 3 times, Rudi Johnson 3 times, Cedric Benson twice)
Only 3 others have had as many as 250 (BJGE 278, Pete Johnson 274, Harold Green 265).
How many carries do you think Mixon will get this year if he stays healthy. He only has to average 15.7 per game to hit 250.
Not how many you would give him, but how many he will get.

In 2017 Le'Veon Bell was that only RB with more than 300 carries (321).
Only 7 others had as many as 250.

I say he gets 250 - 300 touches, but less than 250 carries.

Less than 250. Gio needs to get his carries too.

I'll say 275ish only because for some reason I think Lazor is going to want to use him a lot more often this season.

I'm saying less than 250 attempts. I also feel like there may be a significant decrease in between the tackle rushing attempts league wide. A lot of this is going to hinge upon how tightly the helmet rule is enforced on linemen and LBs.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
