STM Take

Harrison at STTM #27 tier 4 in 2025 with 103 career catches and 12 TDs through two seasons is the slow-start case after the all-time-tier college resume. The Cardinals' QB room (Murray tier 7 with 5 games, Brissett #16 QB) capped the production. The fourth-overall draft capital and the family pedigree keep the long-term ceiling intact even with the slow start.

Harrison was born in Philadelphia, the son of Pro Football Hall of Fame receiver Marvin Harrison, and was a two-time unanimous All-American at Ohio State who won the 2023 Biletnikoff Award and was Big Ten MVP. Arizona took him fourth overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. Career line is 103 catches for 1,493 yards and 12 TDs across two seasons.

Strengths

  • Two-time unanimous All-American and 2023 Biletnikoff Award winner at Ohio State; the college tape resume is among the best in the 2024 class.
  • 6'3" 220 frame with the route-running pedigree of an HOF father; the floor profile is built to last.

Concerns

  • Career 1,493 yards through two seasons is below what a top-five WR draft pick projects.
  • Kyler Murray's tier-7 QB rank in 2025 (only 5 games played) capped the available targets.

What to watch: Whether the Cardinals find a stable QB tier-3-or-better in 2026; Harrison's ceiling is gated on the QB room.
