Strengths:
David Harris is a solid football player, from a solid football
program who wraps up at the point of attack, and is very
fundamentally sound. Initially it was thought that quickness and top
end speed would be his downfall, but from his individual workouts,
that turned out not to be the case, as his workout numbers were
better than expected. David Harris has an excellent combination of
height and bulk and is just one of those players who has a nose for
the ball.
Weaknesses:
David Harris is not the type of linebacker that is going to
cause a whole lot of turnovers, so to use the term “ball hawk” to
describe him would be inaccurate. He has a limited upside in regards
to pass coverage, he does not match up very well with swift running
backs. David Harris must prove that he can get off blocks in able to
make the plays necessary to make himself into a true MLB in the
National Football League.
Overall:
David Harris is one of the more intriguing linebacker prospects
entering the 2007 NFL Draft due to the fact that he could project to
MLB in either a 4-3 scheme or 3-4 scheme, so for those teams
currently using a hybrid of the two, Harris holds even more value.
His instincts reveal that it is evident that he is ready to play in
the NFL right now and his athleticism and individual workouts show
that he has potential to progress once he reaches the next level.
Harris will represent strong value early in Round Two
