Makes sense. Are we going to do that thing again where we go into the draft with no clear starting OT then draft a WR instead and then everyone yells at each other about it? 😆 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the OT in the second round even if they have to trade up to do so. Killer WR in Rd 1 > OT in Rd 1 BUT... moot point. Sign Tee for Three and draft the OT Rd 1.

Griever Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 These shots always hit home for me. I essentially became a Bengals fan as a little boy in NY due to a '91 team roster photo-poster that my uncle from Ohio brought me. And of course the striped helmets because, well duh. They are gorgeous. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tee Higgins is here for a maximum of 2 yrs, then gone. His agent (same agent as Bates) won’t accept the deal in place, and Bengals don’t budge historically so not much reason for optimism. Deal has been in place for some time now, but no commitment from Higgins’ side. Bye bye Tee, after 2024 where he’ll play on the tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best case there is probably tag/trade and hope to get something from whoever wants to pay him WR1 money. Or he might sign here tomorrow, who knows...

Signing now (before the first game) would be a wise move as insurance against injury. An injury the last year of his contract would certainly affect his value or even make him attractive for the franchise tag. A contract in hand is better than more money in the bush. Sounds like some suck advice from his agent if that is all about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately. And I am not arguing or disagreeing with you and the others who made the same or similar remarks about the agent and franchise tag stiff. Think it totally sucks. Wonder if it is having some effect on the hold up on Joe's contract because he said he would not sign until the others were taken care of?

I'd think so, kind of hard for the team to argue for a "keep the band together" discount if one of the members would rather go record cat yowls with Yoko. If I'm JB I'd want to see that money's going to be well spent before I go giving it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense. 5hat receiver could be tge big guy at LSU. Ranked 2nd behind Marvin Harrison Jr in the upcoming draft. He'll be long gone by then.. Real risky losing Tee for SB runs..

Shebengal Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Very peripheral but my son is working at a hotel near OSU’s campus and I guess they had a youth football camp there last week and he checked in DK Metcalf’s grandmother, but she had DK Metcalf’s cousin and Jesse Bates’ cousin with her. My son made her day when he told her he has Metcalf on his fantasy team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatternMaster Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 The Cowboys just gave their RT a $50 million guaranteed extension worth up to $91 million, good news for Jonah Williams a soon-to-be free agent that plays RT or LT.
