I'd like to see him more involved in the offense, I remember him converting a crucial third down for us last season on one of the limited snaps he did have.

Even if he just ran fly, seams and posts out of the z or slot, he'd keep coverage honest vs Thomas and now Emmanuel...

Harris and Taysom seemed to want it more in the Vikings w/c game when everything was on the line. Surely Sean P will give him an extra 4, 5 looks on offense for 2020.

According to NFL.com, Deonte' Harris is the first UDFA Rookie ALL-PRO in NFL history. Let that sink in for a second.

Some scouts got caught up in his size and the school he played for. Trust the tape.

Assumption College finest.

He's awesome. If the Jags would not have taken our rookie RB and sandbagged him all season we could have gotten even more value. I think he would have been activated and played a little when Kamara went down.

Why teams can't "SNEAK" a player through waivers.

I definitely want to see him more on offense. All he made the most out of the few offensive snaps he got last year. I think Brees trusts him and he has the ability. As valuable as he is on special teams he might be more valuable as a receiver.

The height is the biggest concern. At 5'6" it is almost impossible to throw him open as you can with taller receivers. He'll have to be clearly open by scheme or route running.

Our screen game was missing last season. Harris' open field running skills and speed would seem to make him a screen pass monster. Down field his size and quickness could be an asset behind big O linemen.

I agree with that, certainly. It's just hard for a guy his size to gain any advantage down the field unless he's wide open.
