Marvin Harrison Jr. vs Malik Nabers: Who's WR1 in this Draft?

Marvin Harrison Jr. vs Malik Nabers: Who's WR1 in this Draft? | The Play Sheet

Місяць тому

Recently, every NFL draft class has been stacked at the wide receiver position, but this year there are two standouts: Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr., and Malik Nabers from LSU. The Ringer's Ben Solak goes to their college tape to break down their strengths, weaknesses, and who he's taking if he's on the clock.

Solak - you and Sheil are the best non-Simmons pod on The Ringer. Your collective insights, enthusiasm, love for the game, analysis, and gossip make for the best content. Thanks for making my dog-walks in Brooklyn so enjoyable.

You say this as if the BS pod hasn’t been absolute dogshit for the past year or two

It’s a pretty big oversight of the YAC stuff to only compare these 2 guys as route runners and at the catch point. Based on the total evaluation up to the point of the catch, I think it’s fairly consensus that you’d take MHJ over Nabers. But Nabers had so many crazy YAC plays this past season that show wiggle, juice, and almost a RB running style in the open field that MHJ clearly doesn’t have. That’s where it’s a conversation about who the top receiver is. That’s where the styles separate and it becomes more of a preference thing, or how each player would fit in a given situation.

Ben Solak has been a rising star for like 6 years now and I’ve heard his detailed and nuanced breakdowns… it’s peak

Great analysis Ben, I would've liked some analysis on Rome Odunze but that's pickin nits.

@tysonwilkins2537 Місяць тому

Would love a play sheet on the late 1st/2nd round receivers. Feels like guys like Keon Coleman, Brian Thomas, Adonai Mitchell, Xavier Worthy, Ladd McConkey, and Roman Wilson could end up on teams that have playoff expectations this year where they would need to contribute right away a la the Bills, Chiefs or Ravens

@t4d0W Місяць тому

Yeah thats the idea. Everyone can have fun with WR1,2,3 talk but much like how last year the day 2 and 3 WRs were poppin, I think we'll see more of the same with this talented class this year going to teams with established offenses.

@konnorkanetani6414 Місяць тому

Hopefully the Chargers take one of these guys 🙃

@BKABeloved Місяць тому

No disrespect to Nabers but to me this is simple. You see all the Ohio State WRs that went in the first round? Everyone and their momma says MHJ is the best of them all. WR1. Also side note That Jaden Daniels throw at 14:02 is so nuts

MHJ is NFL ready right now! Whoever drafts Marvin Harrison Jr is going to have a $25M/yr receiver on a rookie contract for $8M/yr through 2027. Chargers hope he’s there @ #5.

Crazy, it’s usually Heifetz that says words wrong. WR1 is pronounced “Rome Odunze”, hope that helps!

@andu1854 Місяць тому

I think all three could be very good to great and WR is the most important piece for the QB in this era…

Nice break down but I just don’t understand why you’d go through all of MHJ’s strengths but not nabers lol Nabers is better at making people miss and yac than mhj is. Like, I don’t think there’s a wr the past few drafts that is better than Nabers is after the catch where as Marvin struggles after the catch with his slim frame

@yaroslav64 Місяць тому

We must protect Ben Solak at all costs.

@hbathletictraining Місяць тому

5:40 OMG calm down my guy lol. The DB played with outside leverage giving Harrison an easy path to run a slant lol. He always looks good when he’s in the slot because it’s an easy mismatch when you smaller nickel DBs & linebackers covering you. Every time I saw him line up outside vs a corner who’s equally talented & more physical, Harrison struggles big time

@jsmiles17 Місяць тому

What Harrison did to King and Johnson this season was nasty. What Harrison did to Ringo and the UGA defense was gross. Go and look at the hit took him out of the game against UGA. If he wasn't hit unconscious, that's a TD in a tight space for a 6'4 wr. He don't have the YAC yards, because he don't need them. He's automatic and again he's 6'4.

@dark8prince201 Місяць тому

If you look at the history of the NFL, most guys that are Marvin Harrison Jr.'s size dominate the receiving td list. I'm always going to choose the bigger athlete. Quarterbacks can be less accurate because they have a huge catch radius. TD LIST 1 Jerry Rice 6'2 197 2 Randy Moss 6'4 156 3 Terrell Owens 6'3 153 4 Cris Carter 6'3 130 5 Marvin Harrison 6'0 128 6 Larry Fitzgerald 6'3 121 12 Davante Adams 6'1 95 13 Mike Evans 6'5 94

Nabers and MHJ are more dissimilar than MHJ and Odunze. More interesting than comparing similar skill sets. That said, I'd love a comparison showing the difference between RO and MHJ

If MHJr is on the board at 5, the Chargers better take him

@josh5218 14 днів тому

Nabers is a better college WR, i can count on one hand how many catches he got 2 feet in. MHJ is a better pro receiver style WR, he makes his catches and gets 2 feet in. I feel Nabers will be good but he is not a refined route runner and it will cause nabers to struggle. It will show on those sideline and endzone catches most, he goes full body to the ball and drags 1 foot vs a more NFL ready WR in MHJ that always does everything the NFL expects from a WR.

@brandonmoore9161 Місяць тому

Ok. You have only watched a little tape. MHJ also wins deep and through the catch point. Painting him as a route merchant is wrong

Rout running is overrated when you have elite traits. Nabers is so explosive and he will become a better route runner with times he’s only 20.

@meditationmayham3590 21 день тому

This is like saying Jamar chase is better than Justin Jefferson because he has elite athletic ability and less nuance as a route runner. Yeah you can get better at it but it doesn't negate the fact that one guy is already elite at it while the nabers is still pretty raw
