Emory Hunt of Football Gameplan's analysis of Felix Harper:
Strengths:
- A pure Point Guard type passer. Shows tremendous ability as a distributor and facilitator.
- Above-average field vision; does a great job of quickly identifying coverage & quickly able to find the best option.
- Strong accuracy in the short-to-intermediate area of the field.
- Lefty with a quick, compact delivery and is able to show some zip on his passes.
- A+ Athleticism. Asset in the QB run game, but more as last resort. Very good pocket mobility; unfazed by pressure.
Areas of Improvement:
- Generously listed at 180lbs. He’ll definitely need a year of pro strength & conditioning.
- Pure arm strength is average. It isn’t ‘weak’, but driving the s will be more anticipation than arm strength.
