So both Houston and Atlanta have a need for a quality back.


Triple Trade?
Jets get Clowney (Texans)
Bengals get Darron Lee (Jets)
Texans get Gio (Bengals)

Jets might have to toss in a high pick for Clowney as well and Texans a midling pick for Gio.

Crazy haha but crazier things have happened in the NFL haven't they??

Then we use that extra pick and another one and trade for Trent??? nah.. lol  too much for MB to handle.

Lee got traded to the Chiefs. We could have had him if we wanted him.

And Andy Dalton might end the season on the PUP if you go into this season with the current offensive line. 

Gio is good, but we have Mixon. Running back isnt as valuable of a position as it once was. Would much rather upgrade the o line.

Or is that where a guy about to be traded goes until the deal is done?

I think that's impossible.

We are at all times one play away from not having Mixon...… .

And Mixon has yet to play a full NFL season.

IF we trade Gio and Mixon gets hurt...Hobson could write an article titled 'Mixon and Matchin'.

Keep your eye on the prize.

So the Falcons didn't bite? say what?

I doubt Gio is going to be traded in fact he will probably be extended.

That would be a terrible decision

Taylor says he had a tight hamstring and was held out as a precaution.

I like Gio, but it is time to move in a different direction. Mixon is the primary RB and the guys we picked up in the draft can be the backups. I just hope Mixon stays healthy.

[guyofthetiger]

My question is who would add Gio to their fantasy team in the early rounds? My point exactly.

[corpjet]

Gio didn't practice on Monday but appeared to be in good spirits and interacted with fans on Season Ticket holder day.

Now onto the performance of our o-line yesterday mainly Cordy Glenn which was atrocious. We need a LT in a bad way or its going to be a long miserable season for Andy

I would wager this is incorrect

But how much of it was his opportunities?  Where he was used?  3rd down and blitz pickup, primarily.  Gio could be the (healthy) Chris Perry in this offense and catch 55 balls, but we never seemed to have a plan for using him.  

If we get a really good deal for a starting caliber LB or tackle, great.  If we don't, I'm still excited to see what he can do under ZT.

There have been strong allegations leveraged on here that Zac and his magic scheme-stock are going to miraculously cure the worst LB and OL cores in the nfl.

So we should be good. Remember the story when Jesus made a loaf of crusty Bread and a few catfish into a feast for 1000s. That’s what Zac is doing, only with really really untalented players

If he was a starting back for almost any team, and you wouldn't add him, I'd like to invite you to participate in my money league.

He’s not the starting back...

And he had like 430 total yards last year while making 4.2 million a year

The fantasy thing is silly. But really who cares? He’s expensive and unproductive and a rookie can step in and do that
