I always worry how much contracts are a factor. Could Mike want to get his money's worth? Could Taylor be reluctant to admit Mixon is failing when Mike is spending so much money on him? (Would make Zac look bad to his boss?)

I would surmise that the Bengals are just waiting for the "real" Mixon to emerge (if he's still able to, of course). But i believe they think he is still a top 5 back.
