Despite what many were saying leading up to the draft; Higgins is a deep threat and should be used as such. Chase should be used on slants and screens. It's exactly what they tried in PS.
Higgins is not a deep threat. Much more of a technician and a intermediate specialist finding those soft spots in zone coverage. His game is very similar to Allen Robinson. Big guy, strong, great route runner, can make the contested catches in the middle and red zone.
Chase far more a deep threat. You need that elite pace that can blow the top off coverage.
