Content Post N'Keal Harry (lack of) Progress Report

This has an opening post with good commentary and information, which we definitely recommend reading.

We should've listened to Deion Branch before the draft:

Prospects that catch his eye this year: "I enjoy watching the college games, and with the NFL, I only watch [the Patriots]. I haven't seen as many guys on the West Coast, but I like the two Ole Miss receivers [D.K. Metcalf and A.J. Brown].
Someone make Branch our WR scout! Cos the ones we have now SUCK!

Harry is the most disappointing Patriots WR pick in a long line of disappointments!
 
To be fair, his college tape wasn't a guy stretching the field and catching balls over the shoulder...he was really good carrying the ball in space and I really do think Cam has been awful at short/intermediate passing which is probably where Harry COULD shine still in this league. The difference between the "touch" that Brady had on screen passes is night and day vs Newton. We saw on that play vs KC(?) last year where Harry was called out of bounds (but was not) and dove to the pylon that he can be dangerous in space...

Now, all of that said I am in total agreement that we wiffed on Harry relative to Brown/Metcalf and a bunch others. I literally want to vomit every time I see a highlight of one of those other guys.

So point being... We wiffed, hes not going to be a WR1, so does he have a career in the NFL? I say yes. Would love to see him with a decent quarterback play now that hes been in league a bit. I dont think TB12 was the right guy for him developmentally since Tom seemed to want to work with veterans that this point hi

Early in the year I would say yes maybe he has a career in the NFL as a Devin Funchess type guy. Now I don't really see any future for him. He just doesn't do anything well and doesn't seem to work very hard at getting better if you read in between the lines from some of the coaches comments.

He worked on his footwork this offseason but that hasn’t help. I thought maybe shedding some weight would make him quicker. At least 215. I believe he’s still 225 with a lot of muscle.
 
DuhBruinz will have a litany of excuses about why Harry is really good.

Its what Homers do.

Dabruinz said patriots draft wide receivers as well as the Steelers

Steelers:

Antonio Brown
Emmanuel Sanders
Diontae Johnson
Chase Claypool
Juju Smith Schuster
Mike Wallace
Martavius Bryant

Patriots:

Nkeal Harry
Aaron Dobson
Chad Jackson
Taylor Price
Brandon Tate
Malcolm Mitchell
Braxton Berrios
Josh Boyce
Jeremy Gallon
Devin Lucien

Yes, that is a terrible list. But, I'll give Malcolm Mitchell a pass as he showed promise during the season and during the Super Bowl when they could've mailed it in. He came up clutch many times as a rookie in that game. I don't think any of those other guys (especially Harry) would have the mental toughness to handle the pressure during the big game down 25.

He didn't make it because he sucked, his knee's where just shot.

Where is he, by the way? It’s been a while since he contributed to this thread. Do we need to put out an APB?

Let's stop making excuses for NKeal. Meyers seems fine with Cam's short and intermediate passing game.

Good WR's in this era, will find a way to get open for even the worst QB's to find them. Harry is obviously not doing anything right or else you'd see Cam frequently target him.

Which was why even as a 4th-rounder he was over-drafted by a full round...and even then I probably would've taken Rashad Higgins ahead of him anyway...
 
Heh......****heads trying to out-****head each other over N’Keal Harry

what next? A cat fight over the awesomeness/stickiness of Hjalte Froholdt?

I’m no ****head. I prefer the more upper class and formal version - Richard Cranium.
 
N'Keal's last stand!!!
Right now, grab this opportunity by the horns before Ford or Moncrief take it from you. Let's GO. Time for a game ball Mr. Harry. Please.

IMO Harry has been a waste and will continue to be a useless WR. Newton didn't throw him in the last game, and I don't expect that to change this game. There is no confidence in Harry. I am surprised he is still with the Pats.
