TE and any WRs other than WR1 have been pretty middle-of-the-pack when it comes to contract $$ from the Bengals.
Personally, I'm worried about Higgins departing because I think he'll get (and deserves) WR1-caliber money and opportunity. I don't think he'll get that in Cincy.
I also don't think Boyd will get a good 3rd contract from the Bengals and will go elsewhere.
I'd have a hard time seeing Hurst get $10+ mill APY, at least from the Bengals. And that's what the top 13 TEs-by-position are getting right now.


With all that said, I was surprised Mixon got such a good contract, which was higher than I thought he'd get offered by the Bengals.
I thought the Bengals would have hardlined $10 mill APY for him.
So maybe the Bengals will surprise me and pay the TE and WR2-3 spots higher than what I think.
