mdonnelly21 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 In terms of the type of WR he is. I've heard he's like a cross between Jamar Chase and Julio Jones. And obviously there is some comparison in route running to his father Marvin Harrison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkronsWitness Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) This sounds crazy but I view him as a cross between AJ Green and Demaryius Thomas. 75% AJ Green and 25% Demaryius. Similar body type/footwork/route running/hands of AJ Green but with a lot of the elite physical attributes of DT downfield with that speed at his size. I am not going to say Julio because I dont think Marv plays with near the physicality that Julio did and he wins downfield with more finesse/athleticism with size which is why I chose DT over him for that comp. To me, hes AJ Green within 20 yards of the LOS, then he is Demaryius downfield 20+ yards. Edited October 9, 2023 by AkronsWitness 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugashane Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Body of Julio Jones, but reminds me or Torry Holt. Just smooth, explosive, and attacks the ball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterCallSaul Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 He is not as fast as Julio. I have no qualms with him as a prospect, but he is definitely not as explosive or physically imposing as some of the NFL elites. He will be just as good because of his route running and hands, but I think he’s a step down from those superfreaks athletically. Tough to comp him. I wanna say Deandre Hopkins with more height and a titch more speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Harrison's 22.2 mph max speed in week 2 was faster than Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill's max speed of 21.66 mph in Week 1, and faster than any NFL player's max speed last season." 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdonnelly21 Posted October 12, 2023 Author Share Posted October 12, 2023 So far what I have so far is a mix between Demaryius Thomas, Julio Jones, Tory Holt & DeAndre Hopkins lol. As a Bears fan I'll take any of those WRs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetterCallSaul Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 He kind of reminds me of Michael Thomas but with a little more juice. Elite body control, ball skills, and route running. He has speed, but I don't envision him just torching guys the way Holt, Julio, or even DMThomas did. He's just a master of the first 5 yards of a route, which creates so much separation. Again, the dude is a monster...he just isn't going to run in the 4.3 range IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkeyDoke21 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 He reminds me of AJ Green more than anybody. Maybe a touch faster, but I don't really buy the stuff coming out of Columbus about him running sub 4.4 at the combine. If he does, that would be pretty spectacular. I'm guessing he's more in that mid-high 4.4 range. I can see some Charles Rogers to his game, when I watch him, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveOurSonics Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Ya he's a slightly faster AJ Green. Obvious Top 5 pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see, most combine expectations I've seen have him in the sub 4.4 range and Harrison Jr himself has said his combine goal is 4.38. Dude has been clocked over 22mph so he has elite top end speed just a matter of how quick he can accelerate. His physical profile grades higher than his dad ever did and I'm sure his dad has been teaching him the nuances of the position (footwork, route running, press release, etc...) His entire life... If he has his dad's work ethic he's probably about the surest bet you can have at the WR position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
