Mixon was re-signed because they wanted some kind of continuity with Burrow and he was one of the few Bengals that wanted to be here pre-Burrow. They also knew that his numbers would be much better with an improved o-line. This may be the best o-line that he's played for as a pro and it is still very much a work in progress at best.
Re-structure Mixon and extend Perine. Use your draft to shore up other positions right now. LB and RB are pretty solid, no real need for draft picks yet.
Orrrrrrrrr . . .
I can also see cutting Mixon, using a valuable high draft pick on another RB and this being an Edgerrin James replacing an established star in Marshall Faulk type of situation as the new stud RB walks into a seasoned veteran QB with a lot of years ahead of both playing together.
And please re-sign Hurst. I think that he's the best TE that they've had in years. He's way better than CJ ever was and he's probably better than Gresham, who should have shined more than he did.
