What does Tee Higgins do that makes him worth 20+ million a year?

[Whatever]

His ability in deep, contested catches and toe taps have just been scratching the surface. With a new oline and, hopefully, a fully healthy season I don't think 1300 yards 10 TDs (A Green-esque season) would be surprising at all. 

The only thing that may hold him back is having to share touches with Chase and Boyd haha.

Higgins could put up prime AJ stats, but that still doesn't make him as good as AJ Green.  AJ was the man every DC was focused on stopping.  Tee isn't.  Tee doesn't get matched up with #1 CB's and/or double teams nearly as much as AJ did.  

Higgins is a good player, but he just isn't a three level receiving threat like AJ.  He doesn't catch a WR screen, juke a defender, and pick up 10 yards and a 1st like AJ.  He doesn't have the big play ability AJ did.  When you look at Tee's handful of deep catches, they're all contested catches against backups, busted coverages, or the face mask he got away with in the SB.  He is, however, a great complimentary WR to a guy that can do all those things.
