7.)Roy Roberstson-Harris– UTEP
Roy Robertson-Harris is one of the more interesting prospects no one knows about. At least not talking about. On the hoof he has everything you want in an edge defender. Tall, Long, the frame to put on as much as 280 pounds without losing his athleticism. This really makes intriguing as it appears he can play OLB, or DE in a 30 front. As we all know by now as Bears fans this is an attractive quality with this coaching staff. However Harris is on this list because it’s all projection for a kid with his measureables.
Still he appears to be a willing pupil. This from NFL.com.
Had 45 percent of his tackles come within two yards or less of the line of scrimmage. Has play strength to play through a blocker’s edge once he gets to the gap. Outstanding change of direction talent serves him well against both run and boot-action passes. Works his way off of blocks with spin move or aggressive club shed. Has tools to be a much more impactful pass rusher. Named team captain in 2015. Showed growth and maturity as person and player over last two seasons./pullquote]
Quick twitch athlete with a non stop motor. Looks like all he needs is to be with great coaches to teach this kid technique. Needs to get his fundamentals down like hand fighting and bend to get his pad level lower. Other than that he has it all. Size, Athleticism, hands, Quick get off, versatility, and it appears the want to to be an NFL star.
