Joe Mixon is a Bengal - THE PISTONS - 04-28-2017 The Bengals trade down in the 2nd Round passing on Dalvin Cook to pick up an extra 4th Round pick and select Joe Mixon. On-field Mixon has been compared to LeVeon Bell and David Johnson. Quite lofty comparisons. It's a big gamble on the character issues though. Cook would have been just as big of a gamble. Mixon is probably a better pass catcher than both Fournette and Cook and had a lot of explosive plays in Oklahoma. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - The Real Deal - 04-28-2017 Love it! RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - Millhouse - 04-28-2017 **** this team RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - Big Boss - 04-28-2017 Don't **** up this opportunity. That's all I have to say. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - BernLock - 04-28-2017 Steal of the draft RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - THE PISTONS - 04-28-2017 It's an extremely high-risk/high-reward pick. I would have probably selected Cook myself...but Mixon is definitely a huge talent. We could have snagged 2 Pro Bowl players in the 1st 2 Rounds...or they could be injured and/or suspended. Very risky. Hopefully it doesn't backfire like the Pollock/Thurman/Henry draft. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - Essex Johnson - 04-28-2017 Well pretty sharp move by the Bengals they picked it up their fourth round still got one of the two running back that they probably would have picked anyway you got to give him credit RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - THE PISTONS - 04-28-2017 (04-28-2017, 09:45 PM)Essex Johnson Wrote: Well pretty sharp move by the Bengals they picked it up their fourth round still got one of the two running back that they probably would have picked anyway you got to give him credit Yeah...I was like how did the Bengals know he wouldn't get selected by someone else...then I Googled it and saw that a lot of teams took Mixon totally off of their draft boards. We may have been able to get him in the 3rd Round due to that. Who knows? We're going to be considered a thug team indefinitely now. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - BoomerFan - 04-28-2017 Not real happy with the Joe Mixon pick. I don't like what he did or being associated with it. Bengals fans are already being abused on other message boards because of this. But that is beside the point. The act itself is a horror. He broke bones in her face and is now getting paid millions. It is just wrong. I honestly feel nausea right now at the thought of it. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - Westwood Bengal - 04-28-2017 This is how we roll. High risk/reward. So be it. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - fredtoast - 04-28-2017 No problem with ths pick at all. Mixon's trouble happened a couple of years ago and he has proven he can stay straight. I don't really see him as a big risk at all. Fantastic value pick by the Bengals. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - THE PISTONS - 04-28-2017 Yeah...and they showed the video...right on ESPN. She gave him a light shove and he hit her as hard as he could. There's no explaining that what he did was wrong. No excuses. Plain and simple he made a major mistake. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - CageTheBengal - 04-28-2017 I'm down with the Joe Mixon pick simply because it has and will make the board more entertaining.

Yeah...he learned from it by getting into a heated altercation with a parking lot attendant in 2016 for which he was suspended for a game at Oklahoma. http://kfor.com/2016/11/04/documents-detail-altercation-between-ous-joe-mixon-and-parking-attendant/ RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - guyofthetiger - 04-28-2017 My church has always taught me to forgive others like I'd like forgiveness. Mixon made a mistake like everyone does at some point in their life. He now has a second chance and hope we will see the Ezekiel Effect for the Bengals. The video keeps being shown which is the press stirring up trouble. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - ochocincos - 04-28-2017 This was already stated as Mike Brown's decision. Just like Mike Brown openly stood behind Adam Jones. If you want anyone to be mad at, you know who to blame. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - t3r3e3 - 04-28-2017 If someone, even a practice squad guy breaks this guys jaw in a training camp fight, Karma will be real. Still a Bengals fan, but I despise this pick. It will take Mixon years, if ever, to change the perception of him. The Bengals deserve all the he11 they'r catching for drafting him, and then deserve some more. RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - ochocincos - 04-28-2017 And here's how some of the fans feel... ![]() RE: Joe Mixon is a Bengal - matmaven - 04-28-2017 (04-28-2017, 09:51 PM)CageTheBengal Wrote: I'm down with the Joe Mixon pick simply because it has and will make the board more entertaining. Isn't it great when domestic violence provides us with entertainment. Give me a break.
