We've see the Mixon struggles this year and history tells us some NFL RBs don't have long careers. With three teams in the AFC north at 2-2 and the Steelers at 1-3, the Bengals are in a spot to win the division and make the playoffs. I think by season's end the Bengals will find themselves picking in the bottom of the first round in the '23 draft. It's time to draft someone to compliment or outright replace Mixon as the feature back.
The trend is most NFL teams don't use a top first round pick on an RB, but I think it's advantageous for the Bengals to consider using a later first round pick. I think talented RBs are going to be available when they pick. Potential players they can draft:

Is it time to go RB in round 1?
