My biggest complaint about Mixon has always been his lack of production in the pass game. Like the OP said with Mccaffrey, you can better rationalize that spending when they produce in two different areas. Same goes for a guy like Alvin Kamara.
The fact of the matter is, Joe Mixon hasn't really been that good. Ever. You can blame that on his OL, or the playcalling, and you may be right. But 1,100 yards with a low 4's YPC, under 10 TD's, and minimal receiving yards, is nothing that special.
