I wanted to say I would give Mixon + a 2023 2nd rounder for Alvin Kamara..... then I looked at his contract. Jeebus the Saints have the worst front office in the NFL.

Only 6 RBs get paid more APY than Mixon:
- Christian McCaffrey
- Zeke Elliott
- Dalvin Cook
- Alvin Kamara
- Derrick Henry
- Nick Chubb
If a RB is going to get paid that much, they need to be a focal point of the offense.
The Bengals are not a premier rushing team.
As such, I'd be completely ok trading Mixon for even a single Day 2 pick.

Kamara will be suspended/in jail next year, too. He and his friends jumped a guy and put him into the hospital on camera. He's only playing now because they're waiting for the criminal case to take place.

As for the OP, highly doubt anyone offers anything near that for Mixon, but I would take it in a heartbeat.

I'm not in favor of doing anything that makes this team worse this year. Trading Mixon for draft picks does that

I would be down for that. Would like a more explosive back anyways for this offense

Agree. After the season, a different story.
