This year’s class of WRs had a little bit of everything from quality slot receivers to speed burners. But there are a few that really stand out. But there is one that stands out as the next WR with great potential.
Marvin Harrison Jr.
Arguably the best player in college football.
MHJ has been phenomenally productive over his career at Ohio State, with 31 TDs and 2613 yds over 38 games. He became the first player in Ohio State history with consecutive 1000 yard seasons, that’s a great standalone accomplishment, let alone for a high quality college football school like Ohio State. That talent and skill will now look to translate over to the NFL. The 2x All American averaged about 70 yards /game in his 3 year career at OSU. Along with 8 games of 100+ yds and a TD catch, last season – he hurts teams, there is absolutely no question.
The high quality pass catcher is one of the most impressive WRs coming in because of his exceptional route-running and strong hands. Harrison Jr knows how to set up routes with sneaky double moves and once he has a step on a CB they aren’t catching him. His career YPC is 16.9 – with fifteen 100+ yd games, the 6-4 WR does all the little things you want a WR to do. Harrison can adjust his routes depending on the coverage he is dealing with, and he can subtly use his hands to create even more separation.
Kyler Murray will just have to throw the ball into his vicinity, and Harrison will have a good shot of hauling it in. He was a great threat for Ohio State QBs with a smooth ability to win at the catch point, using his body to keep defenders off him. And he’s so much more than just a deep threat, he has constantly shown he can run short and intermediate routes with ease. MHJ makes quick breaks and doesn’t slow down or give anything away with any predetermined movement.
Arizona had Marquise Brown and Rondale Moore as their top WR targets last season. That duo combined for 926 YDs and 5 TDs.
Nothing to get excited about.
Marvin Harrison Jr should be able to step onto the field for the Cardinals and contribute instantly. Murray should be able to just throw the ball near him and expect him to be able to make a play. They got themselves the best WR in the draft and a stud for the next 10 years. See more articles and free plays at 10StarPicks.com.
