Problem with it is at 7 Tennessee would probably have their choice of any non-Marvin Harrison Jr WR and they get him on a rookie contract.

Also while the trade chart isn't ironclad, the move from 18 to 7 is valued as more than the value of the 32nd overall pick. We'd likely have to give Tee, our 1st, and our 4th... assuming the Titans were even interested in the first place, and I don't like the idea of using Tee and 2 draft picks to essentially turn 3 players into 1 player.

If we could get their 38th pick for Tee, I think that would be a great deal for us. Even if it also cost us like a 5th or something.

Tee straight up for the Titans' 2nd (37) and 4th (103) would be fair in my opinion.

I think Callahan would the absolute perfect suitor, especially since they need WR help (I like Burks, but he's looking to be injury prone).

Titans also need an offense tackle so trading back from 7 to 18 nets them a good X receiver and a shot at one of the tackles in this class. I think the Bengals would likely have to throw in another pick though preferably not a top 100 unless its a 2025 conditional (5th that could be a 3rd).

What and Tee isn’t injury prone?

The lads hamstrings are made of butter, we all love Tee but **** him if he can’t accept the Bengals need him to be on the field and aren’t chucking silly guarantees at him because he’s injury prone then him and his agent are even dumber than they come across.

Stay fit Tee and you get your big money it’s as simple as that.

I can’t see us trading him so this year is a big prove it season for him.

The Patriots are a team that could be in the market too. They have pick #34, 3rd in salary cap space, looking like a rookie QB, and a need at WR.

The Patriots' 2nd (34) and 4th (102) would be a hard deal to pass up.

....they also have Christian Barmore which wouldn't happen but I can dream right?

Even swap?  That would definitely be the dream!

Pittman signing for 3 years up to $71.5 Million tells you where this market is heading. I'd put Tee over him currently and I think Tee's agent would too.

 PFF FA rankings had him higher
NFL.com had him higher in their FA rankings
33rd team had him higher in their rankings

And so on and so forth. It is universally agreed that Tee is the better WR currently.

When the cap went up, the cost for Higgins did. I think I read he wanted $25-26 million a year.

I don't know what kind of "sources" we were hearing- but let''s not trust them again!

If the Bengals have been sitting on the same offer since "March 2023" that really bugs me. If nothing else, you'd think they would have upped it in response to the cap increase. Like this, it just seems like they were never interested in inking him long-term.

It could also just be agent bullshit talk. Maybe Mulugheta said they haven't negotiated since March 2023 because, in his view, the Bengals have not sufficiently changed their stance since March 2023, despite ongoing conversations.

In comparison to Burks, Tee is an ironman.

Yeah, we shouldn't work with that agent again. Unfortunately, we will have to, because he is getting his players money, and that apparently is all they care about.

Just like CJ Uzomah, how's that working out for you, when you're on your deathbed, count your zero rigs. Let's see if that extra 15 million mattered when you had 100+ anyway. Good luck Tee.

Funny how the Bengals front office has been
Silent on Tee's trade demand.

His deathbed will be 5,000 threadcount sheets, and the best medical care possible.

Uzomah has missed out on zero rings so far by leaving here.

Lot of people on here seemingly pre-counting rings as if it's the easiest thing ever to win SBs and we're just waiting for ours to arrive in the mail that we're owed.
