Right
The strength of this team, the focus, the core of the core is Joe Burrow and the passing game. Build around the focal point - Joe Burrow.
I'm not saying ignore the defense and we don't need a running game. But a bellcow RB is not what's going to put up 25+ points a game. We can get by with a decent RB at half of Mixon's pay if we have a good Oline that can open up some holes and pass protect. And then transfer that money to a top drawer RG, C, or RT.
