Low screen rate and contested-catch issues make Harrison a risky seventh-round pick.
Arizona Cardinals WR has 1.1% career screen rate and WR42 usage ranking over first two seasons, which the source identifies as the primary reason for underperformance relative to his seventh-round ADP (WR31 on Yahoo). Despite leading Michael Wilson in targets in all 10 games together last season, Harrison continues playing an exceiver role without sufficient volume. The source states more screens, slant routes, mesh concepts, and shallow crosses are required to justify his ADP; otherwise there is too much target competition in the offense. Additionally, Harrison is not a manufacturer-of-touches player; his contested grab win rate remains problematic despite bulking to 220 lbs, and back-shoulder timing issues persist, causing him to lose contested situations too often when lighter/smaller quarterbacks throw to him. This profile concern compounds the usage issue, making him risky despite top-five overall draft capital. The source also expresses concern that Harrison could become a wide receiver three if Carson Beck takes over at quarterback after the bye week given Arizona's strength of schedule, with Jacob Brousette expected to open the season but likely won't finish it, creating uncertainty about whether his seventh-round price tag will pay off.
