Harris first came into view during my study of the Ole Miss Edge trio who were part of the 2025 draft class. He kept disrupting protections and run concepts from the interior independently of the attention being paid to those edge rushers, this immediately told me he was one player to keep an eye on. When I turned the tape on this spring, he was still having the same effect on offenses, it’s just he didn’t have the same help around him. Harris opted not to test at the combine; that decision was correct, because his tape is his best argument.

As a pass rusher from tighter alignments, shaded toward 1t, he flashes an explosiveness that can stress a center’s athletic profile immediately. He gets under arms and around hips quickly and his hand accuracy in those positions creates genuine danger for blockers. He produced multiple quick pressures against Georgia in the playoffs from this alignment, including reps where he beat the entire line to the landmark. His lateral agility for a long-limbed player is impressive; he sustains speed in straight line pursuit and flows effortlessly from the backside against zone concepts.

His hands are active throughout and he prefers to scan while engaged, keeping separation to read and react rather than committing blindly. His footwork supports this style; he stays light on his toes and can manipulate leverage vertically, dipping under pads on rush reps while also playing tall to swim over reach blocks in the run game. When his get-off timing is right he locates the ball with sharp awareness. His four tackle-for-loss performance against Georgia in the playoff was the clearest demonstration of what he can produce when everything connects.

His long legs and high hips are tools in space but they also create balance vulnerabilities. His lower half is lean and he can be knocked off his spot by lateral pressure, particularly on the play side of zone slants where double teams target his frame. He also loses balance when attempting to finish in the backfield; the lack of short-area flexibility will draw legitimate scrutiny at the next level.

Despite projecting best as a three technique, he produced limited consistent pass rush from that alignment at Ole Miss. Some of that was role-driven; the Rebels frequently used him as a gap controller or spiker on stunts. But even accounting for that context, he lacks a refined rush menu and does not carry the burst to compensate. He is not a dependable late-down interior rusher at this stage. His counter swim is functional but he does not always step through to fully replace the blocker and improve his angle, which limits the finish rate on what is otherwise a good move.
