Intresting to say the least
If Higgins can translate to the pro game does he claim that
Spot?
If John Ross can stay healthy does he secure that
Role all year?
Auden Tate isn't brought up too much but
He did really come into his own last year .
He showed the doubters he can play at this
Level despite inaccurate QBs throwing jim
The ball
The 3rd WR spot has been lacking some
Juice since Sanu left
Erickson never flashed much big play ability

This is tough because it can come down to what the Bengals envision for next year.
For example, if the Bengals don't plan to keep Ross, the 3rd WR spot could go to Higgins or Tate even if Ross outproduces them both.

Going purely off production though, we saw Ross put up 506/3 in just 8 games last year. If he's healthy, he should outproduce Tate for sure.
Ross has more explosion than Tate and even Higgins. Higgins and Tate have size over Ross.


I'd like it to be Ross because he brings a different element to the group that no other WR does, but my gut tells me Higgins because he was drafted 33rd overall and the Bengals will want to groom him to take over for AJ in a year (or more if AJ is extended).
