Logan Harrell Scouting Report |
Logan Harrell - Fresno State (HT: 6-2 - WT: 275) |
Positives -- Good first step off the line of scrimmage and good short-area burst, can knife through gaps and quickly work his way into the backfield, plays best when he can operate with room to roam, good quickness and closing speed... Has the athleticism to run around blocks; does use his hands
well to keeps blockers away from his frame at the collegiate level, but will struggle to face blocks head on in the NFL, lack of functional strength is an issue going forward... Agile with quick and nimble feet, changes direction well, has the athleticism to get up and down the line... His quickness allows him to pursue down the line of scrimmage, good lateral movement and slide... Plays with a lot of aggression and intensity, has a good motor, hustles to make plays in pursuit, can make plays outside the tackles... Has been very productive and made a lot of big plays for the Bulldogs defense, had a combined 16.5 sacks and 31 tackles for loss in the last two years... High football IQ, very instinctive with a lot of experience, has played both defensive end and defensive tackle at Fresno State.
Negatives -- Very undersized to play defensive tackle at the next level, lacks the size to lock down the inside, is a big-time tweener at his present weight; would need to add 10-12 pounds to fit the 3-4 DE (5-technique) prototype... Shorter than ideal arms struggles to disengage once blocked, can get stood up and pushed around... Doesn't anchor very well, struggles to hold the point of attack, can be washed right out of the play, gets overpowered by larger blockers... Can be a non-factor in the run game when he doesn't win with his first step, he often ends up out of position to prevent backs from crossing the line of scrimmage... The type of player that you love at the collegiate level but doesn't translate very well to the NFL; however, is an over-achiever and isn't someone you want to bet against due to his quickness and intensity... Lack of competition playing in the WAC and Mountain West.
