As for the 2024 Draft:  It may come down to just how good the RB is that is available.

If there is a Breece Hall or Bijan Robinson caliber back available in round one or two then he may be hard to pass up.

Yea possibly.
But if you're gonna spend a 1st rounder on a RB, they need to be a proven stud.
But for me, I think any 1st rounder has to have proven productivity and ability coming in.


FA might help reduce/remove some of the needs, but right now, I think it makes sense to keep Mixon one more year and take an early RB in 2025 based on how Chase Brown comes along this and next season. Mixon's cap hit was greatly reduced, only taking up $8.5 mill next year instead of $12+ mill.

I have a strong gut feeling RT will be the 1st round pick unless Higgins leaves (or is tagged).
