But it would have been crazy to give him a long term deal with more than $18 million guaranteed.
I certainly would have offered him a three-year deal. I would hate to lose him after next year if he does what I believe he can this fall. Add in the fact that the club already declined Ross's fifth year (smart) and the very real possibility that he goes elsewhere no matter how well he performs, and you could be looking for two new outside receivers. Even if Higgins produces, that is still not a situation I would like to be dealing with when this year it appears as such a position of strength.
