But if Hill isn't hurt or traded, I am going to give an ejukated guess that Mixon gets around 10 carries at most, as Hill gets the rest. Gio will be the primary 3rd down back if fully recovered.

The biggest reason for that guess basically depends on Hill knowing the offense better from audibles to picking up pass rushers.

I do not see Hill being cut in any scenario either, as it makes little sense to do so when all you have is Gio left.

I strongly disagree with that bit. Hill is not anywhere near as good at picking up pass rushers as Gio. So Hill won't get more snaps based off of his pass blocking/blitz pickup.
