Higgins comes up same year as Joe and Chase the next


That’s why they trade Higgins now. He is under contract. They can get a #1 and maybe a 3rd. You don’t let a #1 WR get to free agency. Plenty of teams would love to have him.

It’s not a lot of WR talent in this years draft. You’ll have 3 maybe 4 guys picked in the first RD.

The Texans need a #1 WR bad. Take that #12 pick and take either Mayer or Q. Johnston.

I agree, I mean Tyler Boyd is still relatively young makes a very good 2-3 reciver at 750 yrds per season plus Hurst TE so... do what you can while value is still there with Tee.

I don’t think they trade Higgins yet. He’s under contract for 2023. I think they keep him and franchise him for 2024, trade him after. They’ll get less of a draft capital return, sure, but it’s worth it to keep this core together for 2 more years.

You don’t get windows like this often, they’d be smart to do whatever they can to keep it open.

And yes while Burrow is there they will always be in contention, but I’m specifically talking about having 3 elite young playmakers together. Don’t break this up until you have no other choice
