Cut Mixon. He's far too inconsistent as a runner and inept as a blocker for the money he's making.
Look at a guy like Roschon Johnson in the draft. His ability in pass pro and blitz pickup would be valuable.

I hadn't really looked into Roschon Johnson, and it's easy to overlook him given his production doesn't jump off the page.
But it's good when you realize he was having to spell arguably the best RB in the draft in Bijan Robinson.
He could be a Perine clone, but maybe more bursty. The vids I just watched of him showed he can get downhill fast.
A weird potential perk with Johnson too...he came to Texas as a QB, so he could very occasionally do some wildcat.
