What's Zeke getting like 15 million ? couple other guys like 13/14 million. I'm just not so sure I wanna put that kinda money into a RB ?

That's why if they extend him this year, instead of waiting for him to become a free agent, they might have a better shot at getting him to sign a more reasonable sort of deal.
I mean, if they give Mixon a $75M deal for 5 yrs. They had better just start gathering run blocking OL, in order to make that deal viable.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
