Tee Higgins NFL Draft 2020: Scouting Report for Cincinnati Bengals' Pick | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

—Vertical stretch wide receiver with big frame that makes him a powerhouse on 50-50 balls.

—Ball skills for days with excellent vision, body control and strong hands.

—Adjusts his body well to make acrobatic plays on the ball.

—Red-zone magnet who scored 25 touchdowns over the last two seasons.

—Ate up press coverage with his size and length at the line of scrimmage.

—Has good buildup speed and a long stride that allows him to get some push down the field.

—Gigantic catch radius.

—Sure-handed; gained the trust of his quarterback as a safety valve.

WEAKNESSES

—Doesn't appear to have the speed to run away from defenders.

—Lacks juice to separate on vertical routes and often has to win with contested catches.

—Would like to see him play more physically on breaking routes.

—Doesn't have burst and quick movements working out of breaks.

Tee Higgins was seen as a potential WR1 when he exploded onto the scene as a freshman, and he probably would be in most drafts. But a lack of elite speed and a talented cast of wideouts in this year's draft class has him ranked as WR5 instead. Higgins would be ideal for an offense that favors the deep ball. He's almost unstoppable working down the field with his speed, elite hands and an unbelievable catch radius. Higgins is NFL-ready and should make an immediate impact.
