Can someone name a better receiving core?

I'm wondering if that's a good or bad thing? I would think it's a good thing but not one team having a receiving core like that would make you think there's a reason.

Receivers can be divas especially when they're not getting the ball. The only team I would think had something like that is Tampa Bay with Evans, Godwin and AB. But I had Mike Evans on my fantasy team and watching some of their games because of that fact even he was getting a bit salty and Tom Brady was his quarterback and they won the superbowl. What happens if your not winning and not getting the ball.

Maybe I'm reading way too much into but I've just found myself leaning Chase because I think thats the way its headed and I think it may be a legitimate concern. People say we need a #1 WR but Boyd and Higgins are just supposed to accept a diminished role? If you say they're roles won't change then how many pass attempts does Burrow have a game? 

Chase didn't get as many targets as Jefferson in the LSU offense because the slot WR is "featured".  Part of making the entire offense work is having the defense try to defend every inch of the field.  Chase would stretch it, but if you played off him, he could take a slant, break a tackle, and have a big gain.  

Chase, by all accounts, is a team-first guy.  Burrow referred to him as "a lot like me"...."always getting up early and working extra".  Neither Boyd or Higgins are ball-hogs, either.  There may be games where Chase gets 3 receptions, but has 50 yards and a TD.  That underneath stuff will be there for the taking if teams drop safeties to prevent Chase from burning them deep.  Higgins and Boyd should be two of the happiest Bengals if Chase is drafted as he will likely draw the top cover CB and also pull a safety toward him.  The other WRs, TEs, and RBs will feast.
