If Malik Nabers put up 85% of his career average off ACL, he'd score like Tee Higgins, A.J. Brown, Zay Flowers and Nico Collins last year. And the Giants were 31st in scoring and 27th in passing yards per game from his rookie season to Week 4 last year when he posted WR1 stats.

Tee Higgins is the best value among Bengals receivers, now dropping to the 3-4 turn after going at the 2-3 turn last year with no real difference in outlook, and should garner around 20% target share in a pass-heavy offense.

Tee Higgins (WR, CIN) is #26 overall in Hayden Winks' 2026 Half-PPR rankings vs. Underdog ADP 32.6 with a 177.9-point projection. Verdict: Higgins is the WR14 with Burrow since 2022 as upside WR2. Higgins has played 39 games with Joe Burrow healthy since 2022. 9 PPR points, equating to WR14 per-game production on WR15 usage. Even though he's a vertical ball winner receiver, Higgins is actually leading in success rate on his targets since 2022 when Burrow is healthy.
