Bill Belichik would never do such a thing.

Im not continuing any further with this conversation. It's groundhog day

(09-01-2021, 07:57 PM)Frank Booth Wrote: you're right

Belichik would definitely use a top 5 pick on a "limited" receiver

odd are, he would not.

Cmon dude smh

I think Higgins can surprise some folks as a deep threat this year. Or at least his potential to be may be better recognized.

Try to keep up

I believe Chase is more than a sideline receiver. I hope.

and college stats do not matter in the nfl

When have I ever said Chase will struggle? I never said he would. I think he'l be fine.

I DID say he will be cincy's 3rd receiver option in the offense until further notice.

You like putting words in my mouth to fit your "hater" and "troll" narrative

You really need to sharpen up

(09-01-2021, 09:42 PM)GreenCornBengal Wrote: “Cincys 3rd option” indicates he struggles. Like you said, you wouldn’t draft a guy #5 OA to have him not be the #1 receiving option. So, some crow should be served when he is that #1 threat on the team right?

Let me guess, I’m a fanboy… no, I just see the skill set and college production to have faith he’s going to do well pretty quickly. Not gonna buy in on 5 preseason targets…

It’s ok, you can continue your regularly scheduled angsty tirades against posters and players. Have fun Frankie.
