Jupiter Fan Posted March 15, 2023 Report Share Posted March 15, 2023 3 hours ago, IKOTA said: Maybe, but if I were the Bengals, I would have no problem trading Tee for 2 1st Rd picks. Difficult to assemble a SB quality team with 3 guys on offense all getting top tier contracts at the QB, WR and WR positions. It’s tough with even paying one WR that kind of money when the QB is going to be taking up 20% of your cap. Oh mama, 2 firsts I would be looking at every one of those opportunities.

I_C_Deadpeople Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 We may be overthinking this. The team may very well just keep Mixon for this coming year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|BlackJesus| Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Katie, now it's really time to trade for Clyde Edwards-Helaire (CEH) from Kansas City, so he can follow Orlando Brown to next year's SB winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping Mixon while letting Bell go is hard to defend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A vet and a rookie would get it done. Keeping Mixon while letting Bell go is hard to defend. I don't disagree but as we see from signing Brown, the RB spot may simply not be a priority at this time. So they can sign another back up, see what happens in the draft, etc. There may not be a reason today to cut Mixon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Yes, they may not need Mixon's cap space until the summer when they do the Burrow (and hopefully the Higgins) extension. But if they plan to have a new RB combo, it would be better for Joe to be on the market now than in the summer. He deserves that much.

dex Posted March 16, 2023 Report Share Posted March 16, 2023 Dehner said on a podcast that Cincinnati tried to resign Perine, then was surprised that he went to Denver. Apparently the two contracts were close in value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelWeston Posted April 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 So far my RB list is All around backs 1-Dijon --------- 2-Zach Charbonet -------- Backs that I think have the agility/feet to be starters/stars and can catch 3-Tank Bigsby 4-Sean Tucker ----- Backs that I think have the agility/feet to be starters/stars that haven't been shown to catch (not sure it was asked of him) 5-Dwayne McBride ----- Undersized back that can catch and pass block but I don't know if he can be a starter 6-Kenny McIntosh ----- Big play guys who I am not sure have the size/muscle to be a primary back 7-Israel Abanikanda (He is only 20 so who knows) 8-Tajae Spears 9-Jhamyr Gibbs ---- Guys who can block but I am not sure has the juice to be a number one back 10-Roschon Johnson ---- Guys who I don't really like but everyone else does so we probably will draft one 11-Zach Evans 12-Kendre Miller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 A few more names to consider would be Devon Achane, Eric Gray, Chase Brown, Mo Ibrahim, and Evan Hull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Achane is too small. Gray isn't dynamic enough for me, Brown looked awful blocking, Ibrahim and Evan Hull I will have to look at more.

I am not going to disagree with that. I'd be happy to give him a shot. I just think the team make up will be Mixon-Rookie-Williams-Evans again. And the rookie will get more focus/snaps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Dub Posted April 3, 2023 Report Share Posted April 3, 2023 3 hours ago, Jamie_B said: He was 2 when Mixon was hurt last season and preformed fine. He outperformed Mixon, just like Perine. I see no reason they'd keep Mixon around other than it being the easiest thing to do or trying to be Team Nice Guy. It stinks of the "old Bengals" approach to roster building. Kind of a musty odor... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
