Agreed. I think that's what it will come down to. I would imagine, given it's their 1st contract after rookie deal they're going to want big money. Much like Pratt or Wilson it will come down to who they think is better/more important and I think the Bengals will go with Chase.
Maybe Higgins, Burrow, and Chase really do all love it here and playing together so they take a little less each but that would be very surprising to me. Cutting Mixon makes this a little more possible.
