You obviously cut Gio so you are not putting 15M into your RBs, and give mixon his 8 and have some younger, drafted guys as your RB2/3 like the rest of the league does.

The only way I give mixon this deal is if it means they drop useless gio.

1.) Gio's cap hit is actually 4.7 mil.  8 mil + 4.7 = 12.7 mil, not 15 mil.

2.) At 12.7 mil, that's really not that obscene to pay for your RB1/RB2. It's on the higher side, but it's far from the top.

3.) Cutting Gio would actually only save you 3.4 mil at this point.

4.) This late into the offseason there's nowhere you can really put that money to good use. Your best and really only option would be rolling it over.

5.) We have no other backs that have seen a single carry in the NFL.

6.) Gio is our best blocking back.

7.) Gio is arguably our most talented receiving back. Couple this with #6, and he's incredibly useful in obvious passing situations.

8.) Joe Mixon has been getting a good deal of carries these past two years. With an extension, you'd really want to be careful of letting him get close to or over 300.  The last thing you want is to dump a bunch of money into him and then burn him out with overuse.

My Conclusion - You keep Gio for this season, but he's definitely a potential cap casualty or restructure for next season.
