Sugashane Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Solid rotational piece, but his days as the bellcow are over. Seriously a **** move to do that to him and Jones IMO, you had a number of teams let their guys go early so teams could make a move to get them early. Balance, I guess.

GB was trying to get a deal done with Jones at a reduced cap hit. Talks broke down and once the " legal tampering " opened GB looked into other options. Sure it sucks, but if a Jones/ his agent didn’t have a sense a release might be the endpoint, that's on them as much as the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Bristow Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 9 hours ago, THE DUKE said: Mixon has been a solid power rusher the past couple years, but he has zero wiggle anymore, and is a liability in pass protection. For as much as he was making, the Bengals needed more. 2017 Cash Earnings $2,568,763 2018 Cash Earnings $712,735 2019 Cash Earnings $1,054,477 2020 Cash Earnings $14,367,007 2021 Cash Earnings $5,376,471 2022 Cash Earnings $8,611,754 2023 Cash Earnings $6,100,000 He hasn't been as good as his paycheck for quite awhile. He was underpaid his first three seasons, way overpaid his last 4. They really should have cut him before last season, but if his agent didn't know this was coming that's a poor agent. I still bet he gets picked up somewhere, just not at $6 million Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddHatter Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Imagine the Cowboys give him a look if he's in the $2-3m/yr range and they can't get Henry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmittyBacall Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Sad day as Mixon meant a lot to the culture and fan base, but a change was needed. Thank you, Jodein! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler735 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Thought the Texans would have been better off taking one of the top rookie RB's on day 2 of the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Lets go! I hope we draft a compliment RB in the middle rounders. Caserio finally did something that got me excited this offseason. Pause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only RB I'm a fan of is Jonathan Brooks and he is coming off an injury. Thats who I was hoping we pick if we struck out on all of these Rb's in free agency. I hope we still target him to pair with Mixon. Edited March 12 by Texansfan713 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBs will surprise us every draft as there's always unknowns who get their shot and just kill it, but this RB class, in terms of top-end talent, seems to be pretty terrible.
