Bengals can free up a lot of cap money and cash by cutting/trading Boyd and cutting Wilson's 2 million and no dead cap in 2023.
Who is more important Boyd or Higgins? I love Boyd, but he is heading towards 30, will be 29 in November of 2023.
I think we keep Tee over Boyd and Wilson, they will need more money, but they can structure a Higgins contract to be 6 to 8 million in 2023 (right now it is less than 4 million and 10 to 12 million in 2024. It will take cash immediately so the structure the bonus over a 5 or 6 year contract.
Burrow also can be structured to get a huge signing bonus for a 10 year contract, they can minimize his cap hit in the early years.
I do believe the Bengals sold naming rights for PBS to Paycor to have a cash infusion guaranteed each year.
Time will tell, but I see the Bengals having Tee, Chase and Burrow under contract for 4 to 6 years minimum for each by 2024.

2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
