Pros

  • Routes
  • Pure technician who can throttle up and down, win off the line of scrimmage and at the top of his route.
  • Physicality
  • Plays through contact with ease. Seldom jammed at the line and even better in contested catch situations
  • Acrobat
  • Ball tracking and body control allow him to play above the rim while controlling his movements and feet as he hits the ground

Cons

  • Ball Security
  • Runs a little loose at times. Opens the door for forced fumbles
  • Top End Explosion
  • Can get vertical in a hurry but isn’t a pure burner
  • YAC
  • Would like to see a better package in space when he has the ball in his hands

Eval:

Harrison Jr. is an extremely refined WR who just so happens to also be elite athletically given his acceleration, body control, and physicality.

Pairing his traits and technique with ball tracking and acrobatic catches on the regular proves just how special he can be in the NFL.

Ceiling Comp: Davantae Adams

Technical savant that can get still get vertical and dominate as a volume target.
