As a Bengals fan we really can't complain about how this FA period has started out.

If we really did trade Mixon vrs just losing him is fantastic, and the TE signing is awesome!!
Agreed! Get a decent RT and DT and it can’t turn out any better coming into a draft with 4 picks in the top 100

There's no way possible that Jefferson is in Cinci is there? I'm not dumb enough to think this could actually be a thing am I?

I'm with you. But remember, the Vikings did the exact same thing with Stefon Diggs when his contract was coming up.

Literally the Bengals would brake X "Twitter" if they somehow worked out a trade.

With that being said, what in the world would we have to give up beside Higgins to get that deal done? I would probably do Higgins and our 3rd that we just got from the NFL, and maybe a 6th but not much of anything else.

Here is what they got for Diggs

The Buffalo Bills acquired the Vikings receiver and a 2020 seventh-round pick in exchange for a 2020 first-round pick (No. 22 overall), a 2020 fifth-round pick, a 2020 sixth-round pick and a 2021 fourth-round pick, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Monday. Fox Sports first reported the news.

I'd say you'd need to put together a package at least that good. I can't imagine why they would want to bring in Higgins. I think they'd want the draft capital.

Having said that, you make the trade with them and then you can flip Higgins to somebody else for the best draft package possible and get some of your draft picks back.

It's clearly a dream scenario, but fun to think about none the less.

Think about this folks, what about Trading Higgins and Browning to the Vikings for Jefferson?

We could resign McCarron and still have a quality backup, oh my that's some juicy stuff.
