Charmin Marvin Harrison Jr Thread

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

His catching technique still seems questionable at best, but he has been getting wide open so far in camp.

The separation is a big deal to me considering we didn’t see a ton of it earlier in his career.

But then you remember, it’s against a Cardinal secondary

I always the the back of the jersey on the defender when I see these highlights

I assume it's Sr not Jr but apparently Asante Samuel said Marv is "just not fast, and he only has 1 speed, and his hands are not dependable and that's a lot of bad things to be the 4th overall pick."

The one speed thing is something I've called out before, guys who just flat get open often do so many ways but if you only have 1 speed you have to be REALLY fast so people back off and he's not that fast.

He was the "can't miss" pick. How did that happen?

Yep, truly the biggest John ever.

Way too early to claim MHJ is a miss? I think he gets his second contract with the Cardinals.

A miss as a game-changing franchise wideout? Absolutely.

I think he’s better than Zaven Collins but in the same ballpark. Christian Kirk quality.

Thats obviously not what we expected.

Too many people expected a repeat of what his father was to the Colts back in his day.

There's a reason there are no fathers and sons in the Hall of Fame as players in this league.

Meh. His dad didn’t really break out until year 4.

I think people expected to see the game-breaking WR we saw in college (and that OSU has produced on an assembly line for what feels like a decade).

We got the worst first-round OSU wideout in a long time instead of the best.

I remember some people saying that Egbuka who was taken in the late first round last year by Tampa was overrated and not worthy of a first round pick. He only comes in and had a damn good year and outplayed Harrison‘s production. Another high-quality OSU wide receiver.

Started out hot but over the last 8 games of the season only put up 23 catches for 261 yards as the Bucs limped to a 2-6 finish.

Has to prove a lot with no more Evans now too.

 

[PDXChris]

I'm interested to see him in a different offense. We've seen flashes in one game with next to no targets the next game.

I would say his decline would be more because Chris Godwin came back to the lineup and played well…. Not as many targets to go around. More so than his actual play. Godwin is a really good player.

I could see that, but it also lined up when Evans missed a lot of time as well. Though he did have one monster game without him.

Regardless, interesting player to watch this year!

Have we?

He got plenty of targets last year. His best game featured 7 catches on 10 targets... the next week he was targeted 12 times and only caught 3.

His low target numbers against the Colts and in the final 2 games are because, along with being mediocre, he got hurt a lot.

I think he had a lingering injury also?

The thing is Marv's best game of his career was basically one quarter against the Rams his rookie year when their top 3 CB's were out hurt and one of their starting safeties was out too.

He's not horrible but that's really the only game of his career he looked special

That was me.
Look at Egbuka's 2nd half numbers.

Has Asante covered Marvin? Just asking?

It just seems like he has never really gotten into a rhythm and that the mental aspect of the game is where he is really struggling.
