The Bengals cannot/will not pay both Chase/Jefferson. They (apparently) cannot/will not pay Chase/Higgins, so what makes you think they would pay Jefferson the kind of guaranteed money that would be required to get him signed long term? I'm not even convinced they will be able to sign just Chase to a long term extension, but I hope they prove me wrong on that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stryker57 Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 because it doesnt matter if its true or not. if enough repeat it , it becomes news. its all opinions and of course .... undisclosed sources... so simply put, they get paid to put out stories, when they have nothing to say, they dont get paid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because JJ,is not Higgins.JJ is the best wr in the NFL.Higgins is not.So maybe they would pay both of them.Especially,if they are both willing to take less,to play together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Jefferson doesn't owe the Bengals anything. He may well be happy to play with his college teammates again and the Bengals have a better chance of post-season play than the Vikings. But that doesn't mean he'll give them a discount. Ja'Marr might take a bit less than Jefferson but also might not want to be WR2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for more or the same as Hill.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Jefferson will certainly get more than Hill is making. Chase probably will too. Financially it would make sense to trade Tee for fair value, give Uno his 32 mil per year deal, and use an early pick at WR. But that means another need is unaddressed and we're breaking in a rookie WR2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not even make the trade,unless JJ,agrees to a contract,with the Bengals before they make the deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Well, sure, working out a contract and passing a physical will be requirements to get a deal done. But apart from the cap consequences, Minnesota would probably want Tee plus 18 for Jefferson. I wouldn't make that trade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's not to like about his limited production last season? As you mentioned an early pick to add a WR as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 2 hours ago, Le Tigre said: His limited production. I mean he was behind Chase, Higgins, and Boyd. I'm fine with letting Yoshi, Jones, and Irwin battle it out for the 3 spot, if none or them produce then we know we need more than one WR early next draft, this one feels like there are bigger needs than who WR3 will be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 IMO we're ok at WR3. Even if Boyd goes elsewhere, we have Iosivas, Irwin, Jones, and Gesicki taking snaps from the slot. Dehner is convinced the Bengals will draft a WR in the top 97 picks. I wouldn't be surprised by it but also not too surprised if they don't. WR2 is a different story. We have Tee for 1 more year (and realistically could tag him for 2025 if need be). But that's not a long term solution. I'd say his market value is an early 2nd round pick from a team with cap space like the Patriots, Cardinals, Commanders, Panthers, or Titans. Problem is that's unlikely to get us a Brian Thomas or AD Mitchell, who are the most comparable to Tee. We'd be in the range for a Ladd McConkey or Xavier Worthy unless KC grabs them in the first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
