How good can Tee Higgins be?

So until he becomes dominant or elite in those other categories, his speed will still be elevated as an issue whether you want to believe it or not. Speed also determines how coverages run. Going to get a lot more press coverage on a slower WR because they aren’t afraid of being burnt over the top. This also crowds the box more. Look, I love Tee and he’s great, but ignoring lack of speed as something that could separate  him from the best in the league is ignorant at best, arrogant at worst.

If he polishes up his route running which I really think he'll be able to do (we've done good work on other WRs like Jones, and Sanu) and puts in the work, would he not be able to become a dominate WR? Even with the lack of speed? Dez Bryant was never the fastest dude on the field, but he was a monster for several years in Dallas (till he got into the injured part of his career) and Tee is 2 inches taller.
