SI ALL-AMERICAN EVALUATION

The son of NFL Hall of Fame receiver Marvin Harrison, Harrison Jr. is a skilled and polished receiver who has size, length, and advanced route-running in his arsenal. Has just enough long speed to be a consistent third-level threat, but he will make the bulk of his contributions underneath at the next level. Harrison Jr. projects as a scheme-versatile perimeter receiver in college.

JOHN GARCIA, SI ALL-AMERICAN, ON HARRISON

Harrison brings so many tools to the table as one of the more polished wideouts in the country. Ironically, given his name, he profiles closer to his father's running mate with the Indianapolis Colts -- Reggie Wayne. But like Marvin Sr., Jr. is reliable, a great-route runner and simply tough to contend with before and after the catch.
