The trade chart (I know it's fairly outdated) would have the move give the Bengals going from 28 to 35 somewhere around an extra 4th (106) and 5th (138) while sending back the Bengals 6th rounder (206).

I'm still on the Charbonnet bandwagon. Runs, catches, blocks, has great college production, and a 9.62 RAS if you want to check that box.

I am down with that TLL, really like Charbonnet and trading down and getting a RB who can do it all would be a great move.

Also no restructure for Mixon, don't even want him around for a pay cut. A restructure just pushes cap hit into the future, which either means you're committing to him for more years or you're committing to dead cap space.

Yeah, I will say that it looked more like lack of effort in pass pro from Mixon in my eyes. But he just may not have it in him though.

Been in the league long enough and hasn't worked on this part of his game...

Not good at pass blocking either, which is why I don't want Gibbs unless our coaches think he can grow in both areas and he falls to 60.

Is a game changing player though, so would be for him at 60. If we did pick him there the coaches would know better than us about it.
