Joe Mixon

I'm sorry, but no matter how often you repeat it, Joe Mixon is not an elite RB. If Joe Mixon is elite, then what does that make Nick Chubb, Ezekiel Elliott, Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, etc? Mixon is clearly at least a full level below some RBs, so if Mixon is elite, what does that make them? Super Elite? Double Elite? Double Secret Elite?

He's a decent player, but teams regularly find players his caliber in later rounds or as undrafted players. Chris Carson was a 7th rounder, Marlon Mack was a 4th rounder, Aaron Jones was a 5th rounder, Phillip Lindsay was undrafted, and those guys are all more Mixon's level than the elite RBs in the league.

Paying Mixon $13.3m/yr is a terrible idea. There's literally only 11 OL making $13.3m+/yr, which means you could spend that money on a good FA OL who will not only provide better run blocking, but will also help protect your hopefully franchise QB from getting murdered.
If Dalton is cut then the 8.7 million difference plus Mixon's current salary is equal to the last years total for the positions. Burrow +Mixon > Dalton and Mixon. Win win situation. The opposing defense will have their hands full containing Burrow and it will only help Mixons numbers. Btw Mixon was THE top RB in the AFC in 2018 and had 1100 yds with what every one agrees was a total joke of a line. Maybe that's why Billicheck calls him "the best back in the league".
