Seeing how the word is that Higgins agent already refused $20M/per, it seems unlikely that the Bengals would be willing to match any offer greater than that.
If any of the Tags were applicable in this situation, I would think that the non-exclusive franchise tag would be fitting. However, with the volume of WR talent that comes out every single draft class, I can't really envision any team willing to give up two 1st round picks to sign Tee Higgins right now.
Exactly, the transition tag is by far the worst option in my opinion. I was just wondering what the poster thought would be beneficial about the transition tag, it is very rarely used. Although I have seen some fans confuse the transition tag with the nonexclusive tag....
