Mixon straight up took a paycut, I don't think that's any kind of certainty that he'll be back in 2024 at all.
I don't think "future starters" and "developing" RBs are really all that much of a thing. It largely seems to be a position where the majority of the greats are ready year 1 and if you're not ready to be the starter for year 2, the odds are you're probably never going to be one. Even if he beats the odds and does, there goes all your cheapest years and he's nearly a FA.

(Obviously there's exceptions like Michael Turner being stuck behind a HoFer like LT, but Mixon ain't LT, lol.)
