And to answer your question; not a single guy on this roster can step up like Tee should Ja'Marr go down for a stretch. This Jones and Iosivas stuff cracks me up.
Tee is very capable when healthy.
He is just coming off of an injury riddled season and this is a fact in a what have you done for me lately NFL.
Very true, no single guy on this roster that we know of can step up in the absence of Ja'Marr like Tee would.
I think Iosivas could on down the line, but he has a lot to iron out. Chuck Sizzle is a Slot WR and Returner, not an outside WR like Tee.

And not trading Tee. IMO that would be moronic.
Eh, would I rather trade Tee and free up that cap for all involved? Yes of course, but it wouldn't be a bad thing for Brian Thomas Jr to
learn from Tee who is the same size for a year. I would say the WR corp is really improved over Chase, Higgins and Boyd with the legit
speed of Thomas in the fold.

Tee has a certain dollar amount he believes he's worth but the Bengals disagree. How often do we see great players leave their team thinking the grass will be greener and they disappoint? I feel this may be one of those situations is all I'm trying to say.
Same way I feel Harley, well said. Don't think Impactplaya meant what he said there to you as he apologized.

So it may not be an ideal situation for the Bengals but they are for sure going to get 100 percent effort from him every play, every game. So hopefully it will work out for all sides.
It isn't ideal for Tee to be on the Tag that is for sure, but we are in a lot better situation than the Bills were and are having to trade Diggs
while eating 30+ million. We are in a good situation whether we trade Tee or not even if I would prefer to trade Tee and that dough for a
replacement that could get around 700-800 yards and 6 or 7 TD's which is my prediction for Tee's production this year.
