1. Unless it’s a first round pick, he a Bengal next season

2. Go Pack Go please

3. Pats seem in running and have #34. Perfect spot to draft sweat.

4. If you can get a 2nd and 3rd, I do it all day long.

   He’s going to be unhappy without an extension and the chance of that bleeding into next season isn’t great.

5. His agent does a disservice to his clients.

6. It’s a insider being told by other teams that those other teams think the Bengals would listen to offers for Tee. ESPN is basically reporting on other teams guessing about what the Bengals will do, honestly it prolly came from Tees agent, that dude only cares about getting as much money as possible and he doesn’t care how many bridges he burns on the way to that bag

7. What a non-story. For the right price any team would be open to trading the second best receiver on their team. I’m sure they’ve had this mentality the entire off-season 

8. Justin Jefferson Incoming

9. If we got a nose tackle and a 3rd rounder it would be worth it imo

10. Nooooooo!

11. Damn had to happen ig

12. 😭😭😭😭😭

13. If we can get a 2nd he’s to gotta be traded

14. Why is this news? We basically knew this would be the case even before midseason last year.

15. Do we get a comp pick if he leaves next season for free agency?

16. At this point I just don’t see why we would. Free agency is basically over so the 21.8 million he would free up wouldn’t matter as much and with the sneed trade I don’t think a 3rd round pick is enough. The only way I see the bengals trading him would be on draft night if they really want to trade up for someone they have a high grade on.

17. Feels like the time to trade him has come and gone. Nothing we can do with that cap money now. Would love for him to have a monster season and someone give a first for him next summer but I just can’t see it. Feels like the only outcome is two years on the franchise then walks for free.

18. He had a bad year last year due to injury. If he holds out this year he ain’t getting paid anything like he wants. He can play on the tag, thanks

19. Tee better be ready for 2 years of the franchise tag…. With the salary cap going up as much as it has, real possibility.

20. Got to have some loyalty to the team that is paying you but at the end of the day if he can get more money then Bengals are willing to pay him I understand!

21. I hope you are not surprised by this. This isn’t exactly news. But they will demand what the feel is fair value for Tee, and they won’t trade him if they can’t get it.

    Me? I think a trade gets worked out this summer.

22. Tee Higgins, our 1st next year and our 2nd this year for Justin Jefferson and a 3rd

23. There’s only a few teams that have all 3 of the following. 1. Good enough draft position to trade, 2. Real need for a #1 WR, 3. Enough cap space to sign him. If he gets traded, they have to give him his deal.

24. Trade Tee for Carolina for Derrick Brown, along with a pick swap with 49 or 33. You fix nose tackle long term with an elite, young player, and open yourself up to drafting both a WR and RT early.
