The league where I own either of those guys I own both, and I probably wouldn't do it if I just had Mixon, but I kind of get it. ARob is a 26 year old WR that is currently WR8, looks like an animal out there, and is flourishing with one of the worst QB situations in the league.This dude, and a 2021 first, were just traded for Allen Robinson and a 2021 2nd....obviously in a dynasty. I don't get either part of that deal.
Yep. Me too. Didn’t matter for me though. I had the pleasure of going against Coleman. You know, a guy probably drafted three or four rounds after I took Mixon....pure awesomeness.Finally benched him like a rational human.
Fantasy is awesome....
a high 1st and a low 1stOk, so I really need a rb2 and was offered a trade I don't think I'd take but want a sanity check.
In future picks, how much is Mixon worth? A first? A high first? 3 firsts?
You're not the hero we deserved, but you're the hero we needed...Guys, he may be safe to play this week. I am planning on benching him in my super unlucky 0-7 league
no way would he bring that kind of return in my leagues. I think you could get a low first and that's it.a high 1st and a low 1st
As I've mentioned above... Mixon's value is odd- He is worth 2 firsts to most of his owners but no buyer is paying that.no way would he bring that kind of return in my leagues. I think you could get a low first and that's it.
Playing Samuels over him this week. Non-PPRJoe Mixon ROS a low end RB 2 / Flex play?
May trade him for Samuels.
I also like Samuels more this week and even perhaps next, thinking ROS.Playing Samuels over him this week. Non-PPR
I think,it’s angood move. Mixon is completely untrustable roght now.I also like Samuels more this week and even perhaps next, thinking ROS.
Footballguys like Mixon a lot more over Samuels for the ROS. I'm willing to give up a short term gain for a long term gain. Obviously Connors injury plays into this. I get the fact that Mixon is talented, athletic, studly RB playing for a crappy offensive team and a team that will need to throw it to keep pace. Mixon owners very frustrated. It's not like Samuels is awesome and appears more short term.I think,it’s angood move. Mixon is completely untrustable roght now.
Joe Mixon rushed 30 times for 114 yards and caught two passes for 37 yards in the Bengals' Week 10 loss to the Ravens.
The Bengals didn't even try to keep up with Lamar Jackson in this one. There's no reason for Mixon to carry the ball 30 times when the final score is 49-13, but that's where we're at with the Bengals. With fourth-round rookie Ryan Finley under center, it's likely that Mixon gets fed on the ground moving forward. Efficiency will be a concern, but Mixon belongs in the low-end RB2 discussion against the Raiders next week.
Joe Mixon rushed 15 times for 86 yards and one score, hauling in 1-of-3 targets for 17 yards in Cincinnati's Week 11 loss to the Raiders.
Mixon's three-yard run was far and away the best (and only) highlight for Cincinnati as he danced around multiple defenders behind the line of scrimmage to score the Bengals' lone offensive touchdown on Sunday. It was also the first rushing score by any of Cincinnati's running backs all year. Mixon out-carried Giovani Bernard 15 to 3 on Sunday, bringing his edge over the latter to 45-7 since Ryan Finley was crowned as the team's starter out of the bye. With nowhere to go until the organization calls out their No. 1 overall selection in April, expect Mixon to get fed a boatload of meaningless touches down the stretch as a usage-based RB2. He'll be ranked as such in Week 12 against the Steelers.

Joe Mixon rushed 23 times for 146 yards and one touchdown in the Bengals' 27-19, Week 14 loss to the Browns, adding three catches for 40 yards on four targets.
Mixon was the offense for the Bengals, and his day could have been much bigger if Cincinnati would have been able to capitalize on its goal-to-go situations a bit better. Mixon was visibly fuming when he didn't get the rock on fourth down on a turnover on downs near the goal line in the second half. But Mixon was able to find the end zone earlier in the afternoon and produced his second 100-yard rushing game of the year. After not scoring on the ground Weeks 1-10, Mixon has three rushing scores over the last four weeks. He'll face the Patriots at home in Week 15.
On one hand, he's finally seeing success.Still gonna start him next week vs the pats?
Trying to weigh this against the degree to which his volume is (or is not) game flow dependent. We've recently seen the Bengals give him 30 carries in a game they lost by 30+ points. I don't feel confident but I still can't sit him for Laird (for instance).On one hand, he's finally seeing success.
on the other, BB wants to take away an offense's best weapon and I gotta assume that is Mixon in his mind.
Joe Mixon rushed 25 times for 136 yards in the Bengals' Week 15 loss to the Patriots, adding three receptions for 20 additional yards.
The Patriots' run defense had shored up a bit in recent weeks, but Mixon gashed one hole after another in it. Even in a three-touchdown loss, the Bengals kept Mixon fully established, feeding and feeding him until he posted the second-highest yardage total of his career. The highest came last week. The Bengals are quite literally running out the clock on their tanked season. He has a go-off spot for Week 16 vs. the Dolphins. Keep him locked in as a low-end RB1.
One change of underwear too late but he is off the injury report and good to go:May have picked up a calf injury in practice today. Add your Gio’s
Phew. My opponent in my main league was holding Gio.One change of underwear too late but he is off the injury report and good to go:

Yes. Will spend next 50 minutes mulling over benching him for Bell.Reportedly caught a stomach bug yesterday. Anyone considering benching him over it? I've had plenty of those things and I can't imagine playing football with one or even right after it.
Bengals team reporter Marissa Contipelli said to "keep an eye on" on Joe Mixon's workload against the Dolphins in Week 16.
He's been battling a stomach bug since Saturday. Mixon will be active for Sunday's 1 PM ET kickoff, though his role is "not yet known." This is obviously the last thing fantasy owners want to hear—particularly in finals week—though we'd caution against overreacting. Mixon has been excellent of late and is set up beautifully against a Dolphins defense that has yielded the second-most rushing yards per game (140.9) this year. There's risk, but probably not enough for fantasy owners to move off of Mixon, who ranks second to only Derrick Henry in rushing yards since Week 10.

That’s an easy I think. How about for Washington?Crap, just took him out for Boone
really depends how much you don't think Mixon will play. Washington should give solid RB 2 numbers I'd think. Mixon doesn't look great from the little I've seen. I'm debating Boone, Dion Lewis or Hilton for him. Got Boone in now, but ugg. I'll be watching this like a hawkThat’s an easy I think. How about for Washington?
Gio is replacement level. Agree Boone is smarter regardless.The thing about mixon is Gio is not that bad lol. Id be looking for another option. Im going with Boone.
He's on a crap team. That almost never helps.Many touches, little production.
He has performed admirably this year with what he has dealt with. Hopefully the oline gets healthy and Burrow getting behind center gives him some more room for next season.He's on a crap team. That almost never helps.
