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.

Higgins also lost Burrow on the year about midway through and had to work with a new QB. 

He caught my eye big time though in their win over the Vikings. Higgins is capable of making catches along the sideline and deep downfield that a lot of our current receivers simply cannot catch or don't have the range for. 

My only concern, is he a true number one receiver? Because that's something he has not had to shoulder at all for the Bengals. A lot easier to feast and go up and get it on an offense with Ja'Marr Chase on it.
