Percy Harvin....(yea baby!)
Overall Football Traits
Production 1 2006: Harvin starts five of the 13 games he appears in catching 34 passes for a total of 427 yards and two touchdowns. He rushes for a total of 428 yards and three touchdowns on 41 carries. 2007: Harvin starts 10 of the 11 games he appears in catching 59 passes for a total of 858 yards and four touchdowns. He rushes for a total of 764 yards and six touchdowns on 83 carries. 2008: Harvin starts 11 of the 12 games he appears in catching 40 passes for a total of 644 yards and seven touchdowns. He rushes for a total of 660 yards and 10 touchdowns on 70 carries.
Height-Weight-Speed 3 Height and bulk are adequate but not good. Possesses rare top-end speed and he actually plays faster than his excellent 40-time.
Durability 5 Missed 2006 Alabama game with high-ankle sprain and slowed by that ankle injury for much of the season. Missed 2007 games against South Carolina and Florida Atlantic because of sinus infection and migraine headaches. Underwent heel surgery in April of 2008 and missed season opener as a result. Sustained a hairline fracture in right ankle during 2008 Florida State game and missed the SEC Championship game with Alabama the following week. Has missed practice time with a hip pointer, tendonitis in knee and tendonitis in Achilles tendon.
Character 5 Extremely competitive when motivated, but there are major concerns regarding his ability to consistently self-motivate and his overall character in general. According to multiple NFL scouts, however; there are concerns regarding his 'trust issues', 'lack of leadership qualities' and that he lives in 'Percy-World'.
Wide Receiver specific Traits
Separation Skills 2 Inexperience as a route runner is concerning. Footwork can get choppy when running short-to-intermediate routes. On the positive side, he does show a lot of upside in this department. He flashes ability to set corners up to the outside before redirecting back inside and explosive coming out of breaks. Excellent initial burst, eats up cushions and can drive corners into backpedals. Flashes effective double moves. Runs away from corners on crossing routes.
Ball Skills 2 Can snatch the ball out of the air without breaking stride. Locks onto the ball and can adjust if and when it gets tipped/deflected (See 43-yard second-quarter touchdown catch during 2008 Ole Miss game). Opens hips well and adjust to ball thrown behind him.
Vertical Speed 1 Reaches formidable top-end speed quickly and fast enough to run by NFL corners when he doesn't get slowed down at the line of scrimmage.
Run After Catch 1 Shifts into another gear when he gets a seam and has rare breakaway speed. Makes crisp cuts in space and can make multiple defenders miss. Above-average balance and flashes ability to bounce off arm tackles but isn't a powerful runner that can bulldoze defensive backs in the open field. Can let the football get away from his frame when trying to make defenders miss in space.
Competitiveness and Toughness 2 By no means is he a physical receiver. However, he doesn't appear hesitant about going over the middle and fights for yards after contact. Very competitive player and will do anything he can to help his team. He has experience lining up at quarterback, wide receiver and running back. Also flashes huge upside as a return man. Willing blocker that gets adequate hand placement but doesn't have ideal overall strength and has problems sustaining blocks as a result.Comment
