Where is Gio?

However, he just isn't being utilized correctly and that may very well have to do with the pisspoor OL blocking. Gio needs to get touches that are outside the pocket cause Gio up the middle for -1 yards is pretty guaranteed to be the result if we run him between the tackles.

Gio does have trade value. There are teams that do know how to use an undersized dynamic back.

I have as well. I remember debating a few on here that claimed Gio was >> Jamaal Charles. Gio has never produced at that level and was seen as a disappointment in his brief stint as starter back in 2014. Gio is basically Danny Woodhead. Great RB for passing downs and can be a weapon if used properly...but not the guy you hand off to 15-20 times a game. 

I think New Orleans, New England or San Diego LA would make the best use of him.
