Needed depth.  He was one the VERY FEW of our FAs I wanted to re-sign.

Yeah one year deal on a solid player. It’s a good deal assuming he was cheap.

We still need to look at YGM and if healthy, Haynes, to re-sign as edge depth.  KGH is an inside depth piece needed as well.

Obviously Luvu is top priority.

We have too many LBs hitting FA to let them all walk.

The home site has announced the JJ re-signing.  I know it was leaked, but it's nice to actually see it finalized.

Tee Higgins officially requested a trade. Cmon Dan.

Anyone know what kind of money he is seeking?  You all do know he's wanting out of Cincy due to a contract dispute, correct?  If he's not happy with the franchise tag, then he's probably looking for $$$$$$.

Don't be surprised if Higgins is a bust elsewhere.

Probably top 10 WR money.

The franchise tag for WRs this year is just under $22M.  That's not chump change.

If that's the case, then I'm down with a hypothetical Higgins/Burns trade.  A top 10 WR deal is cheaper than the top 5 Edge money Burns is seeking.  That's as long as we don't get hosed in the trade package.
