Brian Thomas would be the best WR to replace Tee if we end up trading him - DYT-Flyer - 03-19-2024
They are very similar - question is what draft value we would get in the trade. I thought he was the most impressive wr at the combine.

Agree.
Now what…..

BTJ is a great option to replace Higgins with...if the team is comfortable with who they got at RT, NT, and CB now to the point they aren't worrying about a rookie needing to be good enough to start Year 1.
But with not having any OT under contract other than Brown beyond this season, no true starting NT on the roster currently, and potential questions around if Hill/Turner is good enough to take over for Awuzie (I'm ok with it personally), they might need to go more of a need in Rd 1 this year and keep Higgins for the year...unless they can secure a Top 40 draft pick for Higgins.

I wouldn't call Higgins and Brian Thomas similar right now but I do think Thomas can do what Tee does maybe a little different plus more. Adonai Mitchell might end up higher on the Bengals draft board than Thomas though because of the body control.

Thomas is the only receiver outside of the big 3 I’d spend 18 on.
