Is the Henry deal enough for Mixon?

Many of the wins that you've cited were before the OL fell apart and the wheels started to fall off of the LB corps. I wasn't trying to knock AJ, Mixon, or any skill player. You need good skill players to win. It's just my philosophy(which I believe to be based in fact) that you can't expect skill position players to be so good that they can do everything by themselves. 

See how Andy Reid's teams have historically drafted when he's been a HC. He scoops up trench players and always fields solid lines. The teams that go deep in the playoffs or make the playoffs regularly almost always have good lines. 

Well, a good OL never hurts, but Reid didn’t win it all until he got an elite QB, elite, TE, and elite WR.
