He should really be considered one of the best value picks of Snead's tenure. He's the most accomplished TE in team history. has averaged over 61 receptions over the past 4 years and catches more than 70% of his targets. He never lived up the breakout expectations people had when he caught 43 passes over those final 5 games of 2019. But he's been a consistently good player for them for 7 (going on 8) years now and that means something.
But with an expiring contract and turning 31 before the end of this coming season this very well could be it for him. All the more reason the Rams should be focused on adding TE talent in this draft class- not just as a TE2 for 2023 but as the likely TE1 for 2024+.
Rams have parted with these guys recently because either their play had slipped or they had a problem with salary demands:
Goff
Ramsey
Scott
Gaines
AR
ARob
Floyd
Wagner
Just off the top of my head.
I think Higbee has zero chance of being a Ram in ‘24. But thanks for the memories, Tyler.
