theirish Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Will Gio be the starter if that's the case? http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000962094/article/bengals-fear-rb-joe-mixon-will-need-knee-surgery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 (edited) Yup. And I dropped Gio in two leagues earlier this week. Edited September 14, 2018 by Wolverines Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Geez, guys dropping like flies. Is there somebody other than Gio on the Bengals worth owning if/while he is out? I was reading that Tre Carson barely made the 53 man roster, while rookie Mark Walton was a lock. Won't matter for now, they already played this week and I would expect not somebody you can sign until next week. Maybe the picture on Mixon is clearer by then.

Shaft Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 1 minute ago, forever in debt to mo lewis said: thats actually not too bad if it holds true It is because I traded Conner a few days ago for a WR. At least I handcuffed Mixon with Gio and my other starting RB is DJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def. Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 2nd RB I've lost in one of my locals. Turning into a banner year for that league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelredd9 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I could see them giving a big load to Gio. Teams like to reward long term backups with a heavy load when they get a couple weeks of being the starter. I could see Tevin Coleman getting a heavy load, too. Although Coleman's sickle cell trait might prevent it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m simply pointing out that draft position is secondary to a body of work in the NFL. I Do agree that he should be used more, but it’s because of the stats you pointedness out, not because of where he was drafted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Yes Mixon is much better than Gio, next time offer an explanation instead of being lazy and talking like draft pick warrants playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its SOP for the lord of dopieness. he thinks this is his private playground and he's allowed to go around insulting people. Long overdue for the ignore list, his 1 tidbit of useful info per year doesn't outweigh the negative. To be clear, he eventually explained his reasoning after being lazy and trying to justify playing time with a draft pick, which others called out.
