Can Marvin Harrison Jr. Deliver on Pre-Draft Hype in Year Three?

Saturday, April 4, 10:14 AM

Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. was largely viewed as one of the safest prospects in years when Arizona made him the fourth overall pick and the first non-quarterback selected in the 2024 NFL Draft. Through his first two years in the league, he has yet to make good on that promise, totaling just under 1,500 yards on 103 career receptions. While a concussion, a heel injury, and an emergency appendectomy caused him to miss five games in 2025, he spent much of his sophomore season third in line for targets behind All-Pro tight end Trey McBride and third-year breakout Michael Wilson. Both players return to an offense helmed once more by Jacoby Brissett, and with free agent acquisition Tyler Allgeier joining a backfield that should see returns to health from James Conner and Trey Benson, the Cardinals' overall passing volume could see a steep decline. Before ever taking a snap in the NFL, Harrison was viewed as a consensus top-three dynasty wide receiver, but RotoBaller currently has him ranked at WR20, and the current landscape in Arizona could make it difficult for him to see a meaningful rise.
