It would be stupid to move him this year. He is a starter and a damn good one on a reasonable contract and we are far from cash strapped. No reason to weaken our team now when it’s far from needed. Our WR room is 3 deep and then PS fodder after that. We need a 4th WR who can contribute. If we cut Boyd we need to try to find 2 WR’s that can actually play before the season starts.

No reason to hurt our chances this year and next. 2022-2023 will be our 2 best shots at ever winning a Super Bowl. We should be going all in these two years and when we have to make tough decisions afterwards we can deal with it then after hopefully winning 1-2 SB’s. 

OP stated we could move him to prepare for potential Higgins contract but Higgins is on a rookie deal for 2 more years and even if we move Boyd there is still no guarantee we can keep Higgins long term. Burrow and Chase are priorities and will crush our cap when time comes. We are likely going to have to keep drafting WR’s high almost every draft and roll with Chase in his prime and then a bunch of rookies for quite a while. If anything it could make more sense to tag and trade Higgins in year 5 and sign Boyd to a cheaper extension when his deal is up.
