Cordy Glenn is back at tackle, so that will help somewhat. Maybe AJG will be back, maybe he will be traded soon. With some help on the o-line and possibly the outside is Mixon a buy low rb now or steer clear of him? I’m hurting at rb with Zeke on a bye, Kerryon hurt and Hunt suspended. Other than that I have a bunch of guys. So what are your thoughts on him?

Long term if you can buy low, definitely. I’d be scared to buy with the intentions of production this year. That offense (specifically the line) flat out stinks and I’m not sure Corey Glenn is fixing it.

The problem is what is buying low? I'd say a late 1st and maybe a throw-in but it's unlikely his owner entertains that offer at all. Cincy is a long term disaster, and needs so many pieces to be competitive I'm not sure how many years it takes before Mixon is viable again.

I'm rebuilding and was able to get him for a 2020 late 1st and a 2020 3rd.

As mentioned, IF you can buy low for long term hope, I would do it.

Pretty much. He's a buy-low, but not if you're buying thinking he'll help you this year. He might eventually, but that wouldn't be my intention if I'm buying him. Long term though, I still like him a lot and think he'll go back to being a weekly RB1 with elite upside.

He is trash for this year except for week 16 (Miami). He is very talented so future long-term value is probable. But that hinges on his team pulling a Colts from a couple years ago, and studding out their O-line through the draft this year. That probably not going to happen, so I would buy low only if the price is low.
