There's a world where Cincinnati could've kept all 3, but that would've required their front office/ownership to be proactive instead of sitting on their hands with every pending contract.

Eagles & Dolphins took care of Smitty & Waddle earlier than they had to, and in return those players took deals that are bargains compared to what they could get elsewhere as #1s. I think Tee would've been receptive to that scenario, now he has no reason to do them any favors. A few different teams (Chargers, Steelers, Patriots, Panthers, etc) will be more than willing to pay him like a #1 and bet on him shining away from Chase.

Higgins is to important to Cincy. Burrow will restructure, and Higgins already said - he's willing to take a discount -- for less than wr1 money.

Cincy has alot of holes, but there gonna sign their playmakers, and figure out the rest later

If they haven't figured out the rest prior to signing Chase and Higgins, how are they going to figure it out after if they have no cap space?

What's #1 production?

6--10 catches a game, draw safties away to free up the free up field space. He's not that guy and I like Higgins. He benefits tremendously from Chase on the other side and Burrow being able to make reads and throws. If he goes to a team without a talented QB and becomes their #1 I don't think he matches his Cincinnati #2 numbers.

That's what their approach is going to be. Them actually figuring out is another story

These teams are always lying and crying broke. The Bengals can restructure deals and pay Chase and Higgins, IF they want to. It seems keeping Higgins is important to Burrow. I wonder if ownership will make it happen.
