The Bengals need to put a priority on a RB in the draft next year that can block in pass protection, run with authority and catch passes. And don't give me "it's the OL" excuse. There are tons of RB examples who have success with average OLs and are paid way less.

this is factually wrong. Mixon was one of the best at breaking tackles from behind the scrimmage last year. Maybe he was the best
