and Ladd McConkey in this draft. Brian Thomas Jr also has quicker feet than Tee with the same size.
Tee also doesn't have deep speed like Brian Thomas Jr. These are just facts. Tee is limited in his route tree. Curls, outs, digs, posts, ins and

Tee Higgins is a match-up issue for CBs and Safeties.
Burrow can throw it to where Tee can snag it.
Even in perfect position that DB can't match Higgins
