Read the 2nd paragraph there are several articles and this is well-known around the league.

That is weak bro. Every analyst that follows the draft has said this is a weak RB class. Where have you been? They’ve been saying that’s why everyone is signing RB’s.

Agreed. Benson is a dawg, but outside of that you’re looking at a bunch of RB2s early

Mixon sucks

 

[Carson]

Mixon sucks

So does our RB room

 

[GMO415]

Mixon is zeke. Might as well bring zeke back

Both committed crimes against women, so they're even there.

 

[thunderpimp91]

Mixon sucks

Bro has a mean right hook though.

 

[Sydla]

Wrong. There’s 5-6 good backs at least.

Not a strong RB class. For example there is no first round back in this class.

 

[Floatyworm]

Mixon is a downgrade from Tony Pollard. Plus he's been hurt a lot and has off-field baggage.

Pass.

Downgrade????? That kid runs harder than Pollard ever thought about. Hell...if he's willing to take 3 million....sign me up. He's an upgrade.

Joe is done imo

Not a strong RB class. For example there is no first round back in this class.

I still think we're all in on Jonathan Brooks. Fits the profile: supposed first-round talent who is likely to go in the second round because of a major injury.

I would be shocked if he made it to our pick in the 2nd....

Cleveland
New England
Houston
Baltimore
Minnesota
Giants

Since he's the top back, I will be too, but other teams may decide they want a back who is sure to contribute this year instead of one who may basically need a redshirt year.

 

[WhizKid]

no.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Good point about the comp picks! Our front office has me so frustrated right now. Sadly that is probably how they are thinking.

Not probably but is, not going to do anything to jeopardize the TP and DA picks.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

We have too many needs. You can’t draft dl. Lb. Rb. Wr. Ol. With 5/6 picks.

This, with the way this team treats FA, you would think we were only 2 players away and will get that in the draft.

Fix the O line first and then Draft a 4th round RB and sign a decent FA RB. Imo, this formula would be an improvement over last year's roster of RB's.

 

[MyFairLady]

LOL just what we need another selfish turd who will average less than 4 YPC. Little bro is the last thing in the world a real football team needs.

No 4th round pick. has to be very end of 5th.

They say this all the time….they said it during the Pacheco draft too and he was a 7th rounder.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Looking at Mixon’s stats….he’s probably a very realistic option at this point. Didn’t realize his ypc was that low for his career.
