Tee Higgins has requested a trade

[Woodman]

The Bengals placed the franchise tag on Tee Higgins to keep him in the fold for 2024.
But Higgins is apparently intent on playing elsewhere in the coming season.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Higgins has requested a trade.
Higgins, 25, has grown disappointed that Cincinnati has not discussed a long-term contract with him since March 2023. So even as Higgins had hoped to be around the Bengals for years to come, he is ready to move on.

No one had called Bengals about trading for Tee Higgins before today; will they now?

Is it wrong to rather have a rookie or 2?

No. Especially when this could be one of the best WR classes ever.

Nope. It's smart. Higgens is going to cost picks and big money. I'm not convinced he's a #1 either.

He’s not a #1. He’s Alvin Harper who once he loses his Michael Irvin (Jamar Chase) is gonna be just ok…ie not worth the scratch some desperado is going to pay for him.

I agree. Peerless Price is another comp.

We should go for 2.

We would shock the NFL just like yesterday if we were to secure the services of one Tee Higgins ..... having said that I'm sure there would be competition to get him.

IMO he's a special player a difference maker.

The Bengals would be ****ed if they lost him.

I don't think he's a #1 receiver. That's why he's still a Bengal. If the Bengals got a 1st round pick in return he'd be gone because Cincy is cheap and they will have trouble affording 2 20m+ receivers. He's good don't get me wrong. But he's one of those win the 50/50 battles guys as opposed to a speedster. Think a more consistent Gabe Davis without the drops. I'd be happy to have him but we can't afford him this year.

The other thing that people need to remember is college football is breeding great receivers now like rabbits. If your front office does a good job in scouting you can draft your own Tee Higgins and it doesn't need to be in the top half of the 1st round. Higgins was a early 2nd rounder btw

Re: Tee Higgins has requested a trade

The question I have boys is could we move Shakir outside into Diggs slot? He's a bit small but as Yardrat pointed out he's the same size as Diggs. I'm just asking because if the answer is yes and my 1st choice at 28 Adonai Mitchell is off the board maybe you draft the top slot guy in this year's draft Ladd McConkey of Ga

They just got rid of a malcontent.

Why would they bring in another one?
