He was 26th in receiving yards amongst WRs, 28th amongst all pass catchers.
Since there are 32 teams in the NFL, and he's in the Top 32, he's therefore a WR1
Among the 35 WRs with at least 100 targets last year Higgins ranked 12th in yards per reception (13.6) and 17th in yards per target (8.4). He was 18th among all WRs in reception of 20+ yards (14) despite basically playing only 14 games (he had zero targets opening day and only 1 target before getting injured in the last game of the season). These numbers would be good for any #1 WR in the league, but they are even more impressive considering Higgins was just a rookie playing with a rookie QB.
