Maybe, maybe not, some of those guys got cut too and you never know what kinda medical issues you will run into, but Zac apparently prefers Mixon. So there's that to deal with.
I know some of you just want him cut, but that's not happening obviously, then there is the take a pay cut group (this originated from ESPN, not the Bengals), which i don't mind that, but if he will take a paycut, then he will likely be extended for a couple more years.. Best way to handle all of this, just let him play out his contract and see what happens next year. At that point if he has another so-so year, then you can offer him a contract that is worthy of a so-so rb, or he can find a new team and we move on.

Couple of us have been saying he's not going anywhere sans legal issues for quite a while.

On the other hand, doing better than Mixon is not THAT hard. Simply do not dance behind the line, see the hole and hit it hard and fast and don't go down on first contact.
Then go do it.
