This is serious arm chair QB talk I know...because I was good with the Mixon contract at the time.

I really like Mixon but I think signing RB to big contracts is a big mistake. We should put that money towards a FA Off Lineman or Defensive lineman. To be a consistently winning team you need to control the line of scrimmage more times than not. That is why Steelers are usually winning, It is also why they have been losing as of late.

Would love to possible use Mixon and or Atkins as part of a package to trade up higher into the first round with our second round pick.

Good news is Carolina is winning  13-0 and Eagles are winning 14-3. If that keeps up we will be picking 5th.
