But unless we do serious work in free agency and or trade down and load up on picks I don’t think we can make this type of luxury pick. We extended Gio and drafted two RBs last year. And I have no desire to move on from Mixon in his prime.

I don't really see it as a luxury pick.  Joe could potentially pull a Melvin Gordon if he can't get what he wants in extension talks.  If that happens or he gets hurt, Gio can't carry the load.  Williams looked bad in preseason and couldn't even get on the field last year and who knows if Anderson will ever be healthy.  I wouldn't sweat it as much if we were going with a vet QB, but you don't want to be a one dimensional passing offense with a rookie QB.
