Maybe Mixon falls to the 3rd Round? The tape of him hitting that girl would deter 90% of the league from drafting him. It somehow attracted the Bengals to probably take him a little higher.
What always amazes me is how this coaching staff felt another high-round RB would make that much of an improvement on the running game vs an upgrade on OL.
It also amazes me that for a team that is much more geared toward passing that this team continues to invest such high picks into RB.
I've said it before, but I would have rather taken interior OL in Round 2 and a RB in Round 5 rather than Mixon in 2 and Dielman in 5.
