CEH is not built to be a lead back. At all.
I am not concerned with how popular an opinion is. Just because something is popular, doesn't mean that it is true. Really, there are quite a few backs that are as good as Mixon is, in my opinion. Mixon is not special. He doesn't do anything at a high level; he is a good receiver, but not great. He doesn't have elite speed. He doesn't break tackles well. He will largely give you what the offensive line gives him. He's a poor pass blocker. There are numerous backs that are capable of doing these things. I think CEH is one of them. Now, he has never really been a bellcow, which is a completely fair point but I don't really want a bellcow back. So, if you want to point to that as evidence of Mixon being better, then that's fair. I just don't think that being capable of handling more volume is evidence of being "better". If you do, then agree to disagree.
