So this might be a classic big brain move that totally backfires. Running backs are scarce right now and Mixon had been playing excellent ball the last few weeks. That all being said, many people have their trade deadlines this week. With the fate of the Bengal’s season hinging on Burrow’s health and his health being a huge question mark, is now the time to sell Mixon for a solid running back in the James Conner, Javonte Williams, Singletary, etc. range? Mixon was on track for a massive game last night but he didn’t do much after Burrow went down.
As a Singletary owner, I will trade him for Mixon instantly. No hesitation, no second thoughts. Immediate smash accept.
Did I miss the news that Burrow is out for the season? Not sure where all this doom and gloom is coming from. At worst, its a downgrade of the fantasy production of this team but its equivalent to the expectation Garrett Wilson owners had at the beginning of the season.
I traded Barkley for Mixon/Godwin last night before the game. So far looking like a great decision.
