Eh, no thanks on bringing Bates back. He is playing not to get injured at times and is hurting the Defense in doing so.
We brought in Dax Hill, CTB and Tycen Anderson and we should bring back Vonn at SS. CTB looks like he could play FS
too, same as Dax, same as Tycen who has that size to maybe be a TE destroyer in the future. Lou will make do without
Jessie Bates.
I tried to look up the dead money hit for Mixon but I didn't find it. So maybe someone can tell us what it is for Mixon being cut next year. But the team has an option for 2024 so I don't see them moving on from him any sooner than that. As far as Bates we'll just have to wait and see what happens. My concern is another Whitworth situation where we draft the heir apparent only to find out there not capable of performing the job at a starters level. So we end up with a defense that struggles in the back end making life easy on opposing QBs and wasting years of Burrow and Chase because we can't out score teams every week. But that's a worry for another day.
