Can we take a sec to appreciate Ron's approach to the KB situation? He may have come into minicamp and OTAs a little full of himself thinking he's the big boy vet after 1000 yds. 3 weeks later he's one of the first guys at Spartanburg and looking more athletic than last year. Ron sure did light that fire under his ass and it was an amazing piece of motivational coaching.

Ron...is that you?

You know, in general when someone mentions that a coach has played "head games" with a player, I don't believe it.  Usually I just think its a coincidence between the performance and the comment.

Yet, this time, I'm more apt to believe you might be on to something here.

Well, praising guys after camp to motivate them hasn't worked thus far... Why not try something new.

    • Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.   
    • Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
