Dionte Johnson isn't in our Division anymore.

I'm gonna need somebody to lay out the argument that Zay Flowers is a better WR than Tee Higgins. The other two are pretty questionable as well, but I can't even wrap my head around Zay Flowers.

Johnson is on the Panthers now.

Pickens you might be able to make a case for, but Tee is ahead of Flowers as of now.

Yeah I have to agree here.

Flowers year 1 was 77 receptions 858 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Tee’s first year was 67 receptions 908 yards and 6 touchdowns.

This early in Flowers’ career it would be a stretch, at least for me, to say he’s better than Tee.

Beyond that, they've publicly said they'd trade him and there's not a whisper of interest from around the league.

It’s probably less about the structure and more about the guarantee and the cash the team has to escrow

Tee Higgins rookie year is much more impressive 
Than Zay Flowers rookie season 
Tee Higgins came into a offense with a rookie QB
Bottom 5 NFL oline. Oh yeah Covid meant no OTAs etc 
Then JB misses last 6 games. How many QBs did 
Higgins Have throwing to him his rookie year? 
Zay Flowers was drafted into a offense with a top 10
Offensive line. Top 10 NFL QB proven offensive mind 
In Todd Monken 
Yet Tee still put better numbers than Zay.

I don't want the Bengals to franchise Tee. I'd rather they take his franchise $ and sign Connor Williams to a 3-year deal, then get a 2025 comp for him.

But I'm not going to try to suggest he's not a top WR in the NFL. I've posted numbers before as to what Tee does without JaMarr on the field and it's very good.

Connor Williams is a Free Agent. We can get him after the Draft and hope his injuries are behind him.
