He was the definition of overhyped. All I heard for a year is that the guy was going to step right in and dominate from day one because he was a "generational" talent as you put it. Not that his dad's name had anything to do with it. Then I watch him struggle to consistently make an impact while other rookies produced immediately. As it stands he will be lucky to be the 3rd best WR in his class.

 

 

May have been over-evaluated. May not. We just don't know yet. Overhyped? I don't see it. He really was terrific in college.

 

Some guys start fast. Others don't. All of them are in different situations, and "situation" does not refer just to QB talent. It's way way more complicated than that.

 

Aiyuk didn't do as well as Harrison his first year. Pretty good player, though.

He didn’t have any issues. He had 62 catches/885 yards/ 8 TDs as a rookie 

 

 

Yup. This.

What "issue" are you referring to? Dude had a monster season for a rookie.

 

Are you serious??? It was all over the news about the lack of utilization of Marvin Harrison Jr. last season and how he was frustrated.

Also worth noting that NFL players have and allowable amount of trenbolone in their system. LoL.

 Interesting Mango. As I know you're aware, Tren is popular in the "community" (note: I've never used it or any gear).

 

But, to your comment: is/are there allowable trace amounts, or were you just kidding? I'm aware that it's a long cycle (40 or so days) so it would be dangerous to use vis a vis getting popped on a test.

Correct.  He’s not very quick or explosive…massively overrated—and overdrafted—because of his college helmet and his father…

So far…

Imagine hating on that line when you're a Bills fan

And if you want to make the argument that Kyler is holding him back, how come BTJ and Nabers were far more impactful with equally if not worse QB situations (especially in the Giants case)? 

 

Harrison may well turn out to be an outstanding receiver, but last year's WR class could easily be like 2014 where ultimately many players who turned out to be better were drafted after the consensus top guy.

Care to address my points and tell me why I am wrong? You didn't refute anything. Joke all you want but Harrison was a non factor an alarming amount of the time last year for the Cardinals. That should not happen to a supposedly dominant, can't miss prospect.

Now look at Malik Nabers 109/1204/7 line with the illustrious trio of Daniel Jones/Drew Lock/Tommy DeVito at QB.

 

Or Brian Thomas Jr's 87/1282/10 with a quarterback in Trevor Lawrence who has been at least as disappointing as a former No. 1 overall pick as Murray.

 

It was his ROOKIE SEASON. You're acting like 885 yards and 8 TD's in Year 1 makes him a bust. 

 

Did you Draft the guy in Fantasy in Round 1 or something?

Never said he was a bust. That would be a truly stupid thing to say after one year. I said he was overhyped.

 

And thankfully I did not draft him in fantasy, although it kind of reinforces my point. He was projected unanimously to be a top 5 WR by every fantasy analyst lol. Why? Because there was an insane amount of hype surrounding him

Harrison was the Card’s unquestioned WR1, the 4th overall pick in the draft, and the alleged best WR prospect of the past decade…amazing that his numbers were roughly equal to the Bills’ 5th round slot receiver…
