Savvy move by the FO. Impressed (if true)

He's saying he's guessing but the compensation sounds about right.

Wow they got something for him, that's great! Does that impact the cap savings on bonus money?

My only concern is Texans are a good team, but glad we are getting something for him and will immediately get 6 million in extra cap space.
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

This is wild and a hell of a move regardless of the pick.
I guess the Texans thought Mixon was going to get more than 8 million per year on the open market and wanted to lock him down?
Do we then avoid the 2 million dead cap hit Mixon would have brought us?
I love it.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy

Andre Perrota is assuming it's a 6th rounder.

Pretty sure that the signing bonus part is still the responsibility of the Bengals.

I'd be more concerned if Mixon was an actual above average running back. He's nothing special anymore.

That's better than nothing, thanks for the update.

Still, getting a pick for him AFTER you announce he's going to be released is just absolutely wild. What are the Texans doing?

Texans only have 3 7th rounders after round 4 this year. Maybe it's for one of those...or a conditional pick next year?
