My 2023 Watchlist "Aug" Finale

[*ochocincos*]

If the Bengals have a chance to draft Bijan Robinson, I really do hope he's the pick.
He proved last year he's a stud both as a runner and receiver.
I think he'd make a great Mixon replacement.
Mixon is set to make $12.85 mill in 2023 and $13.13 mill in 2024.
That's quite a lot to pay for a RB when you're more of a passing team.
Add in that the Bengals would only have a dead cap of $5.5 mill in 2023 if Mixon is released, and it seems like a no-brainer if they need (or want) to repurpose that cap savings elsewhere.

I also would love Michael Mayer too though, so if both happened to (somehow) be available when Bengals pick, it'd be a tough choice.
