Anquan Boldin had 5 1000 yard seasons with Fitzgerald in AZ, but only two the rest of his career. Or look at JuJu and Mike Williams with the Steelers. Looking at Bengals history, there was Darnay Scott when Pickens left. Also look at TJ who was cut only one year into the 5 year deal he signed with the Seahawks.
If someone gives up a 1st next year for Higgins, I would probably take it. Otherwise, I would plan on letting him play out his rookie deal and walking.
Boldin had over 1,300 yards in a season before Fitzgerald was even in the NFL He also put an entire team on his back and won a SB ring (and got Flacco paid as an elite QB, lol). He played in another with his broken jaw wired shut and no painkillers because his team needed him. He had 7 seasons of 1,000+ yards and is 14th all time in receiving yards.
I won't allow Boldin slander happen in front of me. Certainly not with the other WRs you grouped him with there.
