Why the hype around Higgins? Coming off a season where he didnt impress at all. He's not a WR1 at all. He doesn't get seperation. He will be overpaid and weekly health risk.

To keep this in perspective, Tee is never going to be better than he is right now.  Across from Chase, one of the best QBs in the NFL who just came off his best year....His stock is HIGH.  Here, he'd face the #1 CBs-in Cincy, he was facing the #2.

Pay for prime rib, get chuck steak if you want.

I kind of hope we don't.  

It would cost too much draft capital,  too much $$, and imo hes a strong #2 with some injury issues who has never had more than 1100 yards.

Whatever happened with the Garret Wilson smoke? He can’t be thrilled with the Justin Fields signing . May be worth it to revisit

I'm pretty sure he killed it in games Chase was inactive

So far X is going wild on this rumor.  Apparently Bryce Young start following Tee Higgins today as well

They played at OSU together. He’s ecstatic

If they trade I would rather it be Wilson also.

He's not worth what it would cost plus the record setting contract. If we were going to just throw the kitchen sink at a Bengals WR it would be Chase. But that's never going to happen.

Agreed....why give the farm for a teams second best receiver.

Good point--I need to go back and look, but I believe you.  He still had Joe Cool as his qb...and I would imagine (I will look, not guess) that he got more targets.

I simply think a free agent like this is dangerously risky.

It's the ultimate boom or bust move outside of a major QB trade. 

Can you imagine Higgins and Tyler Warren though...

[tukafan21]

Absolutely not.

I never thought he was going to be worth the cost of the contract we'd have to give him to be able to sign him.  Adding in what the Bengals are going to want in return for him and I'm WAY out.

I still think he's more of an elite #2 than a #1 and he has trouble staying healthy, just a hard pass for me.

It's wild to me that people would be okay with trading for Higgins and giving him a monster contract, but not drafting T-Mac who is a similar type of player but is younger, will be cheaper, and is going to be better than Higgins in short order anyways.  People here seem to be afraid of T-Mac's speed, but don't want to look up that Higgins ran a 4.59 himself, even if he plays faster, he's no burner.

"At this point, it appears that Higgins will sign a multi-year deal with the Bengals or will play another season under the franchise tag. Either way, the odds are that Higgins will not be leaving Cincinnati in 2025 unless he decides to take matters into his own hands (i.e. a holdout)." (5 hours ago)
