Chase not Practicing

Will Hendrickson then completely hold-in if he's making that much less than another guy on the team at his position?

2. If you sign Higgins to a long-term deal to be your #1 WR, you will regret it near-immediately and have a bottom-25% WR trio.

3. The Chiefs have one of the two greatest pass catching TEs of all time and a HoF coach. We do not.

Excellent post. You don’t trade chase. You pay him. You took him #5, he’s balled out and is elite. This is absolute dream scenario when they drafted him. The bengals didn’t say “I hope chase pans out so we can trade him one day for a DE”. They drafted him because he’s elite at a very important position. Pay the man. I wish he would wait until next year, but I would probably do the same thing if I were in his position.
