Also, as you guys have pointed out, it's possible he takes it personally that we took Chase. Also, there's the matter of "what if Higgins winds up being better than Chase?" Which is a strong possibility. I just think we jumped on the WR train a bit too early, and I can't help but feel it was strongly influenced by Chase playing with Burrow at LSU. Which seems like an immature reason to draft a guy.

I reeaaally don't want to deep dive on this dead horse again, so that's all I'll say on that one.

Yup. No sense in going over it all again, but the team had a guy who could be the #1 and basically said, not good enough.
