been a reason why we hung onto Mixon instead of cutting his salary and picking up Dalvin. Love this restructure and Mixon was
right to take it and stick around and hopefully really improve this year in pass protection and hitting holes with urgency.
Mixon is good with ball security and catching the ball out of the backfield. Will give him that. Still really like Chase Brown for the
future and hope he gets every chance to get a lot of snaps even as a rookie. His vision, speed and balance are all very good.
They might have gone after Cook if Mixon had balked on his restructure. But Cook had zero to do with Joe. There goal 1000% was to work out something with Joe. Zach and Mike wanted him on the team.
