What's Tee Higgins value
#41
(06-16-2022, 08:32 PM)TheLeonardLeap Wrote: Mike Williams is also heading into his age 28 season.

More importantly, Mike Williams signed his extension on March 8th, right before the WR market exploded and changed. Then....
Christian Kirk signed March 14th
Davante Adams signed March 17th
DJ Moore signed March 18th
Tyreek Hill signed March 23rd
Stefon Diggs signed April 6th
AJ Brown signed April 28th
Cooper Kupp signed June 8th

If Mike Williams signed an extension literally just 11 days later than he did, he would have likely gotten more. Bad luck/timing for him, great luck/timing for the Chargers.

Also Tee Higgins has 1,999 receiving yards at an age before Mike Williams was even in the NFL. He only needs 1,663 yards in the next 5 years to match Williams' total at age 27. If you want to go by years in the NFL rather than age, he still has 3 years to get that 1,663 yards. 

That's a bit loaded since Williams didn't really break out until year 3.  However, for their careers, Williams averages 9.3 yards/target compared to 9.2 for Higgins.  Given similar target volume, they will produce at a similar rate with the slightest edge to Williams.  People forget that Williams not only competes with Allen, but also a top tier receiving RB in Ekeler and also traditionally good TE threats as well for targets.  

I think everyone will admit that Kirk was a desperation contract signed by a garbage team.  The rest of the guys on your list are clear cut WR1's.  Tee Higgins isn't that and neither is Williams.  He's a high end WR2.  If you also look at the guy on that list, look at their 40+ yard catches.  Most are getting at least 4-5 a year.  Higgins gets 2.  Not having that game breaking ability that a true WR1 has will hurt Tee in negotiations.  

To put things in another light, if Tee Higgins is a legit WR1 and a (potential)Top 10 WR like some are saying, why is there absolutely no debate about keeping Higgins instead of making Chase the highest paid WR in the league?  Because there's a big drop off there, that's why.  

To further look at your list, if you were in win now mode and could trade Higgins for anybody on that list, would we honestly hold onto Tee over anybody on that list not named Christian Kirk?
