WR Josh Harper, Fresno State -- As Chiefs fans, we are all still sore from midround receivers from Fresno State, but here's yet another one that we'd better be familiar with. Harper is getting a ton of props in some circles for essentially carrying the Bulldogs' entire passing offense in 2014, and he does offer pretty good size (6'3", 190 lbs), some smart route-running, and the ability to make plays when he's got space in front of him. Harper, however, is just not particularly great at anything, and looks like a future 4th WR for an average passing offense. Despite his good height, he's not strong enough to be a possession guy. Despite his slight frame, he's not fast enough to be a burner. His hands are solid, but his route-running is really only superb on shorter routes which more physical CBs, many of which will weigh more than him in the NFL, will be able to disrupt him at the LOS and pretty much stick him there. It should be noted, again, that Fresno State's QBing was merely adequate, and that there were virtually no other WRs on the team, allowing defenses to focus on Harper. Maybe the NFL will be liberating in that sense, and that'll make the Senior Bowl and the Combine all the more important to how teams could value him going forward. I, personally, see little that's particularly exciting here, and I'd wait until the midrounds at best to spend a pick here.
