I say right now cause he's proven to be more than competent over the years. Mixon definitely flashed but I think think Gio's better now. But if Atl is the ones perusing this we should have the upper hand and get a good player. Not sure we will get 2, might not even get one. More likely a player and a pick. I would take either OL they drafted this year, but then again they probably wouldn't give them up, and even if they did of course of course you have the whole proven player for a rookie thing which I'm not a fan of. Would be similar to giving him away for a draft pick.

Now if there was an OL that we really wanted in the 2nd, then I can see us going after him. I'm still convencded we wanted Risner in the 2nd. Wish we would have got him.

Gio is better than Mixon???



I do like him, but man is Gio overrated by our fan base. Maybe more than any other player in recent memory. He had one really good year in 2015 where he averaged 4.7 yds, but other than that? He’s just been a decent #2, that will make a flashy play here and there. I doubt there’s a team in the league he’d be the starter for. Mixon would start on about 27 or 28 of them.
