Higgins: $25-27m/yr
Chase: $30-35m/yr

Boyd doesn't move the needle enough financially, even if you trade him, to make paying both of them plausible. You said you can't see almost $60m tied up in 3 WRs, but signing both Higgins and Chase will probably average $60m for 2 WRs.

As fans we try to do these salary cap predictions and how it works under tha cap but in reality these NFL teams are very good at manipulating the money to keep cap hits down or at least make them scale with the growing cap. This keeps players not a a certain cap hit number but a percentage of the cap.

Tee will likely be hard to bring back because like Bates he is going to want 60% to 70% of his contract guaranteed and the Bengals dont like to lock their selves into possible future hurting contracts like that.
