    If I were Tee Higgins I would be pissed. 2nd year getting tagged. I don't know if that really helps the Bengals with their cap space or not
    ADOPTED BOLT: Quentin Johnson

    Season: WK4
    REC: 22
    YARDS: 337
    TDs: 4

    Time to put my money where my mouth is: Hampton will be better than Jeanty!

          Problem is bengals want to sign Chase asap then sign Higgins.... but Chase is waiting for Higgins to sign forr 30+ so Chase can ask for 35-40million per year.....

          Having 2 diva WR's is tough...... will destroy your cap..... and team......

            if he was signing a new deal, he would probably have a signing bonus we over the $26M, and way more guaranteed money overall.

            this may not be over yet - the bengal's just got some leverage if they want to trade him. it also depends on if Higgins will play hardball.

            one ACL injury in practice, the preseason or regular season...

                Not sure Chase is being a Diva. The market has spoken and he has a clear case to be the highest paid WR in the game. That bar is now pushing 40 mil. Thats the way it works. Cap keeps going up.

                Like any QB , DE, CB he is not going to take less than market value

                Higgins was the overall top free agent on the market before he was franchised. He would have likely had a 30 mil offer.

                  If they end up trading him it helps the Bengals ensure he doesn't end up in their own division? IDK, there is a reason that teams use these tags, you can't just let a guy like this walk to your division rival, that would be my biggest concern as a GM...

                    It’s a process and the bengals have no choice but to follow it.
                    How bad would it look if Tee Higgins was in a Steeler uniform..,
                    Thats unacceptable.

                      Chase isn't a diva and neither is Higgins
                      They are doing what they should be doing - if they so choose - and that is maximizing their ability to make the most money they can.

                      Chase deserves to be paid close to JJ - I don't think higher - but close

                      Higgins deserves to be paid probably in the $26-28m AAV range.

                        Brugler was saying that the Chase deal should be JJ’s deal with the salary cap % increase added to it.
                        That’s the easiest way to sign him without complications.

                          You're saying that a guy who holds out for market rate is a diva? Really?!? Man, that's harsh!
