We cant say that the running game is not important and then pay our running back 11-13M.  I would bet a lot that Zac and Brian would say they would love for the running game to be a threat and not just provide provides balance and ambiguity to an offense, especially while we have Mixon.

I do agree that will be the case once Mixon is gone and we dont pay a RB that kind of money ever again with Burrow.

I am not getting rid of a WR, I am replacing the WR with a younger, faster and 9M cheaper version, with an added draft pick, and millions to add to improving the oline.  

As this debate tends to stray from position to player I repeat that I love Boyd, he may be too talented for the priority we give him in this offense, but if we are to be critical and not fanboys, we can see that 4 receptions per game, 28 yds in the playoffs, a crucial blunder in the redzone that could have sealed the SB, his only dropped pass late in the 4th Qtr of the SB do not warrant him making more than 4 oline starters combined.

I think Boyd will be here the next 2 years and this is just us guys talking, but if we were serious like the Patriots we would trim the fat everywhere and put the money into the places that are most crucial to contending every year.  WR3 and RB are at the bottom of the priority list on offense in my opinion, but of course the highest paid on my beloved Bengals.

Again I appreciate your cordiality and explaining your points.

How about you provide ANY information to support ANY of your claims.

I have yet to read ONE.
