If they did trade Gio, they would have to keep Mixon or draft a guy.

Same here. I don't see the point of investing so much commitment to a new guy when we've got Gio locked up for a couple more years and we're about to extend Mixon. On the other hand, and hear me out, other teams are going with 3 back rotations. Mixon, Gio, and Patrick are 3 very different back in terms of running styles. We could use all 3. It would certainly extend Mixon's career if he didn't have to carry the ball so much. Plus, this signed rules out taking a RB in the draft.

AND...I don't know about you but I haven'[t given up of Rodney Anderson or Trayveon Williams
