The problem is that Harris isn't an early separation, short area guy either. And he's not a downfield specialist.

So I thought I was being diplomatic in calling him a 'contested catch' guy because ultimately I don't see him being particularly adept at...anything. He's just there.

I don't think I'd have him in my top 10 WRs. I just can't see why I should like him more than someone like Tory Horton or Kyle Williams. Those are 3rd and 4th round guys by most and that's about how I see Harris.

Admittedly, I can be dogmatic especially when it comes to WRs, but it's served me well more often than it hasn't. I just don't see a guy that does anything particularly well.

I think you can get away with that at a lot of positions but I just don't see it at WR. I'd take a RB with no standout traits but who does everything at a reasonably solid level. But at WR I need to see SOMETHING you do specifically well. In Harris I see a guy who's not particularly fast, not particularly physical, not particularly polished and doesn't run exceptional routes.

He's game. He's willing to put his body out there to take a hit and make a catch. He's willing to block. I guess you could argue that he doesn't look a ton different than Rice did coming out, but I just liked what I saw in Rice quite a bit more than Harris.
