We are paying 12 million for a running back that touches the ball 10-15 times a game. He's the 6th highest paid runningback in the NFL. 

If Mixon want's to restructure then thats fine - but I am actually all for cutting him, signing Perine for significantly less, and then drafting some speed in the later rounds of the draft. 

100% agree, the Bengals do not run the ball often and will not anytime soon. There is no reason to pay big money for a RB for a team that passes first.
