With Tee & Chase on third and long the better running back wasn’t essential. Initially it was to give Joe a rest. But Perine is awfully strong. They aren’t drafting a back like 5.9 Gibbs.
I could see Mixon really working on his pass pro this Offseason and being better at it after a restructure of his contract.
Good point on both giving Mixon a rest and Perine being a strong dude (Wolfman they called him). Roschon Johnson in the mid rounds
seems to fit this mold.
