A 1st round pick is highly paid. We can't afford Chase, Higgins (new contract) and another WR.
Boyd is highly paid for a #3 WR also, I would rather us draft Boyd's replacement in round 3 or 4 and then trade Boyd and his 10.3 million salary.
Tyler Boyd WR $8,450,000 $1,400,000 $250,000 - $200,000 - - ($1,400,000) $10,300,000
We would have 1.4 million in cap space, but save 8.9 million for 2023. Our entire draft pool projection is under 5 million, so a trade of Boyd would net us 3.5 million and 7 new players.
Boyd has been great, but he is just not worth his contract in 2023 in my humble opinion.

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.
