The 33rd highest paid WR in the league is Adam Thielen, who has a 3 year, $25 mil deal. So the FT represents an overpay of 150+% based on Higgins production. Age doesn't really play into it, as we're talking a one year deal.
This is 1 case where the tag benefits the player over the franchise. We tag him & he gets hurt again or he does'nt put up 1200 yards on the season & he's completely overpaid. I think Tee is really only worth 20 million a year if we get him for 5 years & 100 million. Numbers don't lie, he's not worth 25 or more a season. Maybe I'm still in shock over how many drops he had this year.
