It's fun to imagine a prototypical tall, rangy, and consistent X receiver in the mix. I could dig that.  But 20 other teams are saying that right now too. 

For all the Tee Higgins groupies out there, here is a comparison of 2023 from Rid and Tee:

Yards per game:
Rid - 60
Tee - 55

TDs: 
Rid - 8 
Tee - 5 ( played 12 games) 

Receptions: 
Rid - 76
Tee - 42

Drops: 
Rid - 6
Tee - 7


They are different players with different skillsets to a degree - but the productivity result may not be much different at all with that particular switch so many are keen to make.

Higgins with 5 TDs in 12 games is great.
Higgins with 7 drops in 12 games is a red flag.

Once again I'll keep our WRs group. We have talent and speed. Lawrence know them and with a better Oline, it could resolve a lot of our 2023 problems.

I honestly didn't know he had so many drops.

I like Tee, and I think his skillset fits what we need. Ridley and Kirk have very similar skillsets, Tee is more of that outside X guy than Calvin is.

But I'd still re-sign Ridley, even giving up a 2nd. And I'm pretty sure that's what they're going to do. He had a solid season overall and now that he's got a season back under his belt, he should take another step back to his peak form.
