Comparing AJ Green and Tee Higgins as prospects
#11
In terms of their football skill, the big difference is their route running. AJ is really good at the top of his stem where as Tee is going to need some work. AJ has made a killing selling the deep ball then whipping in back to a comeback. Tee doesn't have the suddenness at the top of his stem currently and I think it will lead to a couple of interceptions as NFL corners will jump that, especially if Burrow is throwing opposite hash. In general though Higgins didn't run a very robust route tree at Clemson, now does that mean he can't or wasn't asked to?

The good thing here though is most of Higgins issues are easily coachable. Most of the things that are kind of intrinsic to elite WR's he already has which gives him a really good foundation to work from. In terms of people using Higgins comp as Green, I can see it but you are just getting a slihtly less polished version of Green that may take a year or two to give early AJ like production.
