Draft Profile: Bio
Donell Harris Jr. from Gulliver Prep High School was rated a 4-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. After high school, Harris Jr. joined Texas A&M after being heavily recruited.

In 2020 as a freshman Harris Jr. saw action in just 2 games and played a total of 7 snaps for the Aggies. He recorded just one tackle, no assists, while adding one stop.

As a sophomore for the Aggies in 2021 Harris Jr. played in 2 games and took part in 17 snaps for the Aggies. He recorded just 2 tackles, no assists, while adding one stop.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Harris has the kind of turn-and-run fluidity to be used in man coverage as well, able to run with tight ends and running backs.
  • He’s at his best in the pass rush. While he’s undersized for the edge, He is flexible and twitchy, showing an explosive first step and the ability to dip and bend around blockers.
  • He explodes off the line with a quick first step, with agile feet to counter inside and closing burst to finish plays.
  • Accelerates rapidly and has a great feel for angles. He isn’t huge, but Harris packs a pop.
  • Flashes nimble feet to chase running backs and mobile quarterbacks to the sideline when lined up at end. Spins off blocks to get back into the play.
  • Harris shows good speed and closing burst when blitzing.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Stands up well against the run but is very pursuit-conscious and will take unneeded wide angles.
  • Size will be a problem. Harris doesn’t have much in the way of take-on skills, struggling to shed once blockers get into his body due to short arms and a relative lack of upper-body strength.
  • He’ll also need to be covered in the run game, more of a Will than a Mike in a 4-3 alignment.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
