Joe Mixon

Mixon is in the conversation with the elite backs you named. I don't want to give him a zeke level contract. Thats just too much. I want to add 3 years and 40m to what he has left. He is owed 1.7m this year. So he gets a big raise this year and essentially makes 10.425 a year for 4 years.

And we could still afford to pay more than one OL.

The only conversation Mixon is in with the elite backs I named is the conversation that goes "Is Joe Mixon as good as these guys?"  "No."  conversation over. Lol

No matter what, Mixon is playing for $1.7m this year. Just because you want to spread out the cap hits to make it seem like you're proposing to pay him less, it doesn't change the fact you're proposing to give him $40m more for only 3 years more. That is paying $13.3m/yr. For a RB.

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".

Except the equation isn't just Burrow + Mixon vs Dalton + Mixon.... it's actually Burrow + Overpaid Mixon vs Burrow + Mixon + *INSERT TOP TIER FA OL HERE*.

I'll take the same players plus the top tier FA OL, thank you.

Also worth of note, here's two RBs after 3 years:
RB A: 667 carries/2,757 yards(4.1 YPC)/29 TD
RB B: 693 carries/2,931 yards(4.2 YPC)/17 TD

RB A is Jeremy Hill, RB B is Joe Mixon. Nobody would have proposed giving Jeremy Hill 3yr/$40m extension after 3 years.

If you really think Mixon is an elite RB, let him play his 4th year at $1.7m and prove it. You're already proposing paying him 3yr/$40m and making him the 4th highest paid RB in the league. What's the worst that could happen if he is somehow indeed the rare breed of RB that deserves paid in 2020? You have to offer him a few more million a year? That's a way better result than giving the guy $40m only to find out you paid Jeremy Hill 2.0 and you've already committed yourself to giving him a signing bonus and put dead cap restrictions on yourself if you need to cut him.
