I still stand by the idea that it's a net negative for the team when he doesn't play, and it's gonna be more than a slight problem if he's not brought back. For a team with a reputation for being good at drafting WR, we've got an athlete that we all HOPE can become a good receiver, and a guy who only slipped in the draft because of character concerns (who can't get on the field) waiting in the wings. Chris Henry slipped in the draft for character concerns too... He somehow managed to contribute from the jump.

Yes, agreed. Higgins is a good player so having good players on the field is good. I just don't think it'll be much of a problem unless they just sit on their hands and don't address improving the quality of depth at WR. We don't need a Tee replacement, we need upgrades over everyone behind Tee to bring the floor of the position for us up. With Burrow he should be good with Chase and a handful of solid guys, but currently without Tee it's Chase and a bunch of scrubs. That's the real problem in my opinion.

We do? Our WRs drafted after the 2nd round the last 10 years....

Jermaine Burton
Charlie Jones
Andrei Iosivas
Auden Tate
Josh Malone
Cody Core
Mario Alford

Marvin Jones was 13 years ago. We generally don't get good results at WR unless we use high draft picks on it.
