Was Jamaal Williams interest baseless? All we know are the non definite comments for Mixon, them not matching Perine's deal (2nd RB money vs what they're paying for a starting safety in Scott and likely for a starting TE), and they scouted a lot of prospects. So, if we don't start looking at some of these RBs, which will be some pretty good bargains, then it's going to look more like Mixon is the starter and they're grooming the pick to takeover in a year.
Oh, I think they are definitely looking for at least 1 RB and more likely 2. 1 in FA and 1 in the Draft.
They have visited with RB's and TE positions the most leading up to the Draft. Perine going to Denver even exemplifies it all.
Fun times, been since we drafted Mixon since we were really looking at RB's. Love it when we get to look at the RB's in the draft.
Exciting position. They won't keep Mixon, he costs too much and cannot pass block and at times has bad vision.
I would be almost as surprised as the Orlando Brown signing if we have one more year of Mixon.
Saves money to designate him a June 1st cut right now and there are so many options out there that are willing pass blockers,
that have good vision and burst and can catch the ball out of the backfield. McKinnon being one of them if his neck is alright.
