Tee Higgins (WR, CIN) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

Tee Higgins is a 2022 fantasy football draft sleeper at wide receiver and an ADP draft value. Target Higgins as an undervalued WR in fantasy football drafts.

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~24 Overall

CURRENT ADP: ~33

ANALYSIS: It's undoubtedly a spicy take that may draw some heat on Twitter, the gap between Chase and Higgins as talents is not as big as some think it is. While Chase is a generational talent, Higgins isn't far behind. Chase looming as the WR1 on the Bengals has driven down Higgins ADP as well. It's better to have a WR2 in a pass-happy offense with a solid quarterback than it is to take a potential WR1 target on a team without as good of a quarterback or offense.

Due to his impressive rookie campaign, Chase is likely to draw the main focus of defensive coordinators each and every week. This will undoubtedly open up things for Higgins. With his late third/early fourth round ADP on most fantasy websites, he is an obvious league-winner that shouldn't be ignored just because of Chase.

In Weeks 11 through 18 last season, Higgins ranked near the top of all NFL wide receivers in PFF receiving grade (seventh), receptions (14th), yards (sixth), and YPRR (eighth). Higgins featured at least 23 PPR points per game in three of his last six games. He is already one of the best receivers in the league who is only being overlooked because of Chase.

In 2022, Higgins followed up a solid rookie campaign by raising his target share from 19% to 24% and his yards per game rose from 56.7 to 77.9 and he finished as a WR2 in just about all formats.

The Bengals made some significant upgrades to their offensive line this offseason by bringing in La'el Collins from Dallas. Higgins is good in the red zone with his 6-foot-4-inch height and could become a dominant force in the red zone.

Joe Burrow is just 25 years old and ascending into his prime. As he continues to get even better, this is the year that Higgins has a monster season for fantasy and wins leagues.
