Bowers excites me and I think that we'd be pretty unstoppable if we land him but I gave up any hope that he could fall to us months ago. Tee would also make us pretty dangerous but it's just so hard to know his true value. I definitely think he's important to our offense but he could be wanting #1 money and it's hard to commit because of the injury.

Let alone if you can get a great trade offer... Makes sense. Just like bringing back DJ makes sense until we have a replacement.

Impossible absolutely not. Improbable very much so. Tee wants to stay they want him to stay. They will tag him IMO and try to work the puzzle. I expect he will play in ‘24 and if they don’t work a deal draft his successor in ‘25 draft. In earlier discussions trading him to move up to the single digits is tough. One we hate trades and giving up picks. Most teams if they need a WR picking single digits will try to get Marvin Harrison or Odunze. Saves them a ton of money. RE: Reliable Source Says Tee Wants To Stay Here, Likely Tagged - psychdoctor - 01-18-2024 I think in this particular situation, Tee would not mine a franchise tag. If the Bengals were not planning on signing him to LT contract, they most certainly will tag of some sort. It would not surprise me if the Bengals sign Chase to LT deal instead.

They tried to sign Tee to a long term deal before the season, but the numbers were not high enough for him and his agent, this according to a source.

I also expect the Bengals will take the more predictable and usual route by keeping TEE in 2024. It may be best to do so, unless they can come up with a very specific Plan alternative that has a chance to be a better option.

I totally believe Chase and Tee are a better combo early in their first years playing together than Chad and TJ... the key is raising their game, that is what Chad and TJ did in their like 4-8 years into the NFL..

Sure but both tee and chase have missed time with Burrow , I would still say the start of Chase and Tee is more promising than start of Chad and TJ but Chase numbers have when down so needs to change that next season.

This is a guy I chat with on twitter, I know he has been to the family lounge after games although I did not meet him there. Not sure if he is a friend or relative of Higgins but he is close. According to him the offer was around 20M over 4, said Tee was told he could get better. I think he is correct but, I also think that was a very fair offer.

He could definitely get a little more but probably from a bad team like Carolina. If that matters to him at all. And yeah that seems like a fair offer considering Tee’s injury history and inability to stay on the field. DJ Moore got 3 years $61 million and he had pretty comparable stats to Tee when he got that deal in 2022. RE: Reliable Source Says Tee Wants To Stay Here, Likely Tagged - reuben.ahmed - 01-19-2024 I wonder if Tee would play like Bates on a tag, kind of carefully, with merit.

I had a tire shop in a small town in Oklahoma that was a customer of mine. I was waiting on the owner. In the lobby two old friends talking. I hear their conversation. One guy asks the other how his son is and if we was still working with strength and conditioning for the Clippers. He said yes. But he said he’s going to Houston with Chris Paul who was in free agency. My young friend follows the NBA on Twitter and is obsessed. So I sent a group text Chris Paul was going to Houston. My friend said you want me to believe with no mention of Houston as a landing spot for Chris Paul anywhere on the internet you heard it in a tire shop? No way I believe you. Next day Gene Wojanowski of ESPN announced it. But DJ is one of the most highest character players on the team and there’s a bunch. Good guy for your son to be friends with. My buddies and I laugh as when I tell them some news they say you been hanging out at your tire shop again lol.

WR2 's are a double edged sword when it comes to individual production. They see less targets, but they don't see double coverage as often and usually get don't get lined up against the CB1. So, they get fewer targets, but they get a boost to their yards/target based on easier matchups. Higgins has 100+ targets his first three years, good enough for Top 33 each year. He is not lacking for target share. Furthermore, he wouldn't be seeing a pretty big chunk of Chase's targets due to the fact that Chase is a three level threat that runs a full route tree and Tee is primarily a threat on intermediate timing routes, like outs, digs, back shoulder fades, come backs, etc. WR screens, flats, whips, and crossers that Chase runs are not in Tee's skill set(this is a big reason why he's more of a complementary receiver and not a true #1). Beyond that, if we're trying to determine where Higgins stacks up, why are we making caveats for him being a WR2 and not doing the same for every other WR2 in the league? Why doesn't this year count? Why would his miserable 8 Targets for zero catches in the opener against the Browns not count? Why would his terrible 2 catches on 8 Targets for 21 yards against the Rams not count? His most recent year is the biggest indicator of what kind of player he currently is.How many of the WR's we're comparing Higgins to have Joe Burrow or an equivalent QB throwing to them at any point in their career? Are we curving all of them for QB play, as well, or does only Higgins get this benefit? If we're going to pick and choose, during the second Steelers game this year when Chase was out, Higgins had one catch for 23 yards the first half, then had an 80 yard TD on a busted coverage and racked up some garbage time yards in the blowout for a 140 yard day. Looks great to fantasy owners, but you really can't say he stepped up on a gotta have it game with Chase out. We are talking about using the FT on a one year rental for Higgins. Age doesn't play into that. Thielen may be ancient, but he could replace that production for one year for a fraction of the cost. If we're talking long term deal, it matters. But for one, it doesn't. So Tee Higgins is a better WR than guys like Nacau, Garrett Wilson, DeVonta Smith, Jalen Waddle, etc, etc simply because he played all four years of your chosen sample size and they didn't? That's not good logic at all.
