GAME FILM
​#8 CHRISTIAN HARRIS VS GEORGIA (2022)

#8 CHRISTIAN HARRIS 2021 HIGHLIGHTS

Strengths

• He is a very fast, strong, and athletic linebacker with a solid frame.
• He has a flexible body with excellent body control and a solid lower body.
• He comes downhill fast with excellent angle pursuit and is a productive blitzer getting home to the quarterback.
• He is a three-down linebacker with excellent lateral movement, ability to change direction, excellent sideline-to-sideline speed, and ability to cover tight ends and running backs.
• He has excellent upper body strength as he can shed blocks or stand up blockers and make tackles.
• He finds ways to get outside the linemen out front and disrupt the run gaps.
• He has excellent recognition of plays as he will blow up screens and RPO plays.

​
Weaknesses

• He is a hard hitter, as many hitters try to kill their target instead of wrapping up when tackling, missed plenty of tackles.
• He will fly downhill like a missile and misses his target.
• If lined up at the EDGE, bigger linemen will wash him out of the play.
• He does not progress well in zone coverages and will look confused about the directions of routes.
• He has a lot of energy and hustle but seems to take plays off. ​

Draft Projection: 2nd - 3rd Round

NFL Comparison: ​​Matt Milano (Buffalo Bills)
