NFL Draft 2019: Top 32 prospects – Post-Senior Bowl edition
By Conor Dorney
For me, one of the most intriguing storylines of the 2019 class is how teams in the NFL view this crop of wide receivers.
There are a number of intriguing prospects, but all come with their fair share of question marks and projection. For some, all the physical traits are there but not the production. For others, the production is well but do they have the physical traits for it to translate at the next level.
As far as I’m concerned, the wide receiver who best blends all of those positive attributes together without so much of the negative is N’Keal Harry.
After coming to Tempe as one of the program’s highest-ranked recruits in school history, Harry established himself as one of the Pac-12’s premier playmakers.
Harry’s size (6-foot-3, 216 pounds) makes him an outstanding weapon on the outside and he is just as physical as that size would indicate. Harry has truly special, velcro-like hands and made some jaw-dropping catches over the course of his Sun Devil career.
His biggest knock will be his lack of elite speed, but I tend to think that he is faster than people give him credit for. He won’t be a 4.3 burner, but what’s not to like about a guy who catches everything and should be a physical mismatch on the outside and in the red zone for any offense?
