The Bengals FO has indicated they are going to re-sign Tee. This topic is irrelevant analogous to all these mock drafts created by so called experts which is fantasy and delusional.

They're running out of available free agents that they could reasonably spend the freed up money on. Where would that tag money go at this point? Other teams are making moves and taking players off the market.
They could get around a third round comp pick if they let him walk after this year, assuming they don't splurge in FA in 2026(haha). The cost for other teams would be prohibitively expensive. He's too valuable. Plus they'd have all of this money in cap savings and nothing to do with it at this point. It would've been one thing to say lose their(very high end) no. 2 receiver and sign Trey Smith or sign the top LB and safety who fit the scheme. Now they'd just be making a hole. I think that the trade ship has sailed. May as well offer fair market value to the big three because this FA market has been picked over.

And who are we replacing Tee with? I don't really trust this team to draft a good one.
