JARVIS HARRISON OG, TEXAS A&M stock falling

[RS12]

According to Gil Brandt of NFL.com, Jarvis Harrison got off on the wrong foot at his Texas A&M pro day by showing up late. The only thing NFL personnel hate more than being late is getting arrested. According to Brandt, Harrison claims his wristwatch alarm didn’t go off on time.

I hope he understands a faulty alarm clock is in no way a reasonable excuse by NFL standards. The offensive guard has been projected to be a mid-round prospect with a ton of ability.

His player profile on NFL.com quotes one AFC scouting director saying: "I believe he has Pro Bowl-caliber talent, but his work ethic is a major concern for me. I know he loves basketball, but not sure if he feels the same about football. The talent? That's a given. He's really, really talented."

BAN-INCOMING-IN-3-2-1 says the following: “...teams are unimpressed with how Harrison has interviewed, plus there are questions about him fitting in at the NFL level. Thus, Harrison could be a second-day talent who ends up sliding to Day 3.”

Harrison is a big load (330 lbs) who had the second-best speed/weight ratio of any guard at the combine this year, behind Ali Marpet. Unfortunately, he could be the latest example in a long line of wasted talent in the NFL

Wonder if this locker room is strong enough to bring out the best in this guy? Could be long term solution at LG.

I have had him as a target with one of our 7th rounders for 6 or so weeks now. Wouldn't want to take him any higher.dont trust him with any kind of guranteed but more than worth to gamble with a 7th rounder.

His game footage is solid. Powerful lower body with good athleticism. Awareness and balance were decent. Has a slight tendency to waist bend but it appears to be more of a technique issue than lack of flexibility.

The biggest issue other then the character questions is that of 5 A&M games that I found for 2014, the was only playing in 2 of them.

I'm certain that the Cowboys locker room can now handle a few character risk guys and the OL unit especially can handle it. You don't want to add too many character risks guys, but I'm certain they can handle a few.

I was thinking Jarvis Harrison was already a borderline 7th rounder, and just a likely, maybe a UDFA.
Sounds like he may not be drafted.
