WR Tee Higgins, CIN (3 Viewers)
- Thread starter Faust
- Start date
if he really is 100%, then I think this was a contract ployx.com

Hold to see how productive he is but I have options to hedge. Worth a go if options are thin. Great MU

My option is Akers in the second flex. Thinking about doing it for the floor.

I'd do Akers over Higgins with what we know right now.

I'd roll Higgins over those two in any format. To answer above I'd roll Akers over Higgins.

Bad part of Tee is I only expect him to play for a half, Cincy should have this game in hand and are they gonna give him a full load out of the gate
Starters should be out for Cincy by 4th at the latest
Now, that may mean they did their damage but I feel like this is Chase's "feed me" game

While I don't totally disagree with you, I will say a team that's 0-2, if possible, probably wants to put the pedal down for 4 quarters. Especially after last weeks heartbreaker against Chiefs. I can see Higgins being on a snap count, but I wouldn't he surprised seeing Burrow playing deep into the 4th even up 2 scores. Imo
Chase thread before week one was filled with people saying it's no big deal to Cincy if he does not play week one because they don't need him to beat NE. Oops.
Dynami Brown? I'd def start Tee over Johnson unless you're a HEAVY favorite
I own him several teams and he'll be in a lot of lineups, though not sure about all, as there is arguably not a scarier player in the league to trust playing a full game coming off an injury. Or not coming off an injury for that matter, it's just a much bigger risk now. I said in some other thread yesterday this guy is the king of the early exit and saying that I'm not entirely without fear of a pregame workout situation where he does not feel well.
Still tough to sit. Multiple Bengals beat writers I follow said he's never looked better then he did in camp. Listened to Bengals 3 man beat writer podcast the day or two before he hurt his hammy and one of them predicted a 1,300 yard season for him. I just remember that because I had just drafted him the night before in a big draft and that prediction gave me the good feeling, and then like the next day he was hurt. The Tee experience.

if you're suggesting brown, thanks! He's rostered, league's too big and deep for any relevant free agents
I can't trust that Higgins will play since it's a Monday game. I've been burned too many times on late games. You made me think tho and I'll play E.Elliot at flex instead of Johnson.
I'm already down AJ Brown, Kupp, and Njoku

Seems like he’s 100% going to play
i appreciate that, but he hasn't practiced in full and could very well "tweak" his hamstring warming up for the game.
Follow your gut, man. Rams will probably have to pass a lot. I hope you're able to told you so on Tee, but if I had him, he'd be in my lineup (just proposed a trade for him actually).

Not sure the Rams will have to pass that much, SF down a lot of pieces on offense.

I have him on a lot of my teams. I will probably play him on about half this week.

Yet I traded for him today in a DEVY league. I gave Pittman and Sinnott.

I have no choice in the league I traded for him, because we have to start 3 WRs and I'm low on gas.

It’s Akers or him for me.

Is there a 'raises hand while slightly grimacing'?
I'm starting him but unless the Bengals go completely crazy it's not going to matter this week.

Need him to save my season tonight.

Well I started him over Jennings, so I need 200 yards and 3 TD's

8 catches for 80 yards and TD. Hmmmm. Seems like a reach. Hope u get it.

Not sure how it was a ploy - he’s playing under the tag, and the Bengals have stated there’s no contract for him.
And they drafted his replacements, so…
His best and only “contract ploy” is to go ball out, stay healthy and prove to his next team he’s worth a big contract.

i also have Daniels and the Jax TE going, so don't need it all from Tee.

I could see 2-21 from Tee and Daniels putting up less than 10 points. No idea what that Jax TE will do. Hoping for 5-6 points out of him.It’s a

Was good to see him active, production stunk, Iosivas looked better then he ever has but Tee had a shot for more his and his Qb's health have always been biggest factor with him so if he if that goes ok no reason to think his production won't follow.
Is it crazy to think if the Bengals don't start winning and things look bleak near the trade deadline he'd be made available?

This is fantasy for ya, inches away from 1 TD and nearly had another but the ball was just thrown out of bounds.
The clear PI on the 2pt conversion was somehow missed by every official.
There should be better days ahead but there will be times where he's 4th in targets for the game. I think he is a very good receiver but has trouble staying healthy. It also seems that Iosivas and Gesicki get their fare share of targets. If CIN keeps sucking and playing from behind it won't be an issue but if they are somehow playing ahead and don't throw it as much it could be tough sledding.
If you can somehow get him in dynasty and play for next year when he moves on I think that might be the play. Deep leagues can probably flex him in good match-ups but will be up and down I think. Nothing against his abilities, but the consistent target share might not be there week to week.
Iosivas could be the #2 next year. He looks good in PPR leagues as he only has 85 yards total in 3 games. He's propped up on the TDs. But he could push for more reps and targets leading into next year.

Iosovas has certainly not looked better than Tee Higgins ever has. Not even close.
You got that all twisted and really should have been understood.
