Marvin Harrison Jr. vs. Malik Nabers: Who is the No.1 WR? | First Draft 

​@@broq9194 idiot take. He's the BEST route runner, has the BEST hands & can make explosive plays. He did it all the way into the Georgia game. He was TORCHING them before he got hurt. MHJ is a 6'4 matchup nightmare & has Larry Fitzgerald written all over him at worst. Idk if he's the best but as far as tape & eye test none of these WRs do anything better than him. They all play in diff offenses so route trees are diff but telling yourself that any of these WRs can catch, run routes better than MHJ is just bias. Also Nabers had Daniels & Odunze had MPJ..

@@MikkiChavez MHJ is Larry Fitzgerald/AJ Green and Nabers is JaMarr/OBJ. Everyone agrees MHJ is gonna be a perennial Pro Bowler, it's just about Nabers being able to peak as the actual best receiver in the league.

@@edenfesi6517 the best WR ever is Jerry Rice. Who plays more like him?

@@MikkiChavez Jerry Rice played football from the 80s through the early 2000s, the game is completely different now. Football when Jerry Rice played was about 2 receiver sets and having outside receivers line up on the boundary winning 1-on-1. Nowadays you have motion, the best receivers get used in the slot a bunch, coaches are good at scheming people open, etc. Being a possession guy is great, but most good OCs can get guys open if they're reasonably skilled, so what they actually want is receivers that can go get yards after that. CeeDee, JaMarr, Tyreek, Cooper Kupp, AJ Brown, DJ Moore, Jefferson, etc. To be at the actual top of the top now, you have to be a YAC demon, that's where Nabers wins.

Naber is Also a Generational Talent. You probably focus on his Name his Father Created. Nabers is the #1 Graded WR in all of College in 2023.

Facts 💯 because of bad QB play

Can’t run routes, just watch him, he looks like a robot coming out of breaks

Facts 💯 can't go wrong with either

marvin is the no.1 for the cards. nabers is the no.1 for the chargers. which team will stay put, thats the question.... next question what position that FIelds played in school....

There is an argument to be made about nabers work at the line of scrimmage. LSU coaches their wrs to go around contact rather than through so you can keep that in mind

@@kelvincabrera558 that’s true. I was speaking to the fact he started the season on the LOS, and he wasn’t as effective. Then maybe week 3 he moved to a slot position and he was feasting. Uber talented in his on right

@@danielreynolds3694 good point. I guess either one will be fine for the chargers. We could also really use him in the slot as well if qj can play on the outside but I guess that’s a big if

With Harrison Jr., it's more about the hype. With Nabers, just look at the tape. Nabers is more explosive than Harrison Jr. and racks up more yards after the catch than Harrison Jr.

​@@jodizzle6321 so what lol MHJ is a matchup nightmare & prototypical WR. He can make explosive plays as well. Don't matter if he's not Tyreek lol

@@jodizzle6321Marvin sheds press/contact better than any wr coming out in a while along with everything else. Him being able to shed contact and create separation almost instantly makes him the best prospect because most reasons why wrs bust is because they can’t shed press so easy even when they have all the other tools, jerry jeudy for example.

@@jodizzle6321 you’re probably watching just casual highlights on RU-vid. If you watch tape on Harrison from beginning to the end of the play you’d see how good he is, don’t watch the typical broadcast angle because you can’t see him for 3-5 seconds when the play starts and most of the time can’t even see him run the route. Watch better tape

Finally someone that actually took the time to watch tape instead of the controversy hungry regurgitation I’ve been seeing in the comment section. Going off the film, you’ll see how the likes of Alabama and FSU gave Nabers issues when pressed. MHJ also played predominantly on the perimeter (leaving less room to work for rac opportunities) as opposed to Nabers who played mostly out of the slot with soft coverage thus providing him greater room to work. The route trees they were tasked with as well weren’t comparable. Also the whole knock of MHJ being an incapable rac threat is laughable to say the least (averaged 6.4/rec). Players with those numbers are the likes of ceedee lamb and Justin Jefferson. Hopefully everyone actually does some homework for a change.

baby, cardinals no.1 wr is marvin, chargers no.1 wr is nabers...... soooooo. it cardinals move back, nabers is no.1. if not marvin is no.1.... its not the media, marvin was the media darling, just scout experts just got started to go deep dive. got revealed. like drake maye.... id go nabers for me in this nfl. but some more old school prototype scouting team, like the gm of the cardinals come from patriots would go marvin....

Oh wow everyone is so impressed

He is so dang good. Nobody truly knows unless they watch LSU and all their games. What he does for them and how much pressure he draws away from the other receiver. I freaking love Nabers.

​@@broq9194Marvin is DEFINITELY the most skilled. But I agree in terms of explosiveness, athleticism, and raw talent

@@d_rod3the only thing mhj has nabers beat is contested catches, catching in traffic and probably better route running acumen, but once nabers develops his route running a bit in the nfl he’s more likely to outproduce mhj

I’m a Bama fan and even I agree with you on this. Y’all constantly produce good to top tier WRs.

Never pass on a osu wr either

Right Jefferson and Chase should be obvious

Ive been mocking up nabors 1 to bears and brian thomas jr 2nd to redskins forever they all laughed

because both gms wouldn't even make it through the draft before being fired @@MichaelHawkins-yd6ge

I’ve watched for over twenty years. MHj easily one of the most overhyped prospects ive ever seen. He’s jerry jeudy but even more overhyped.

​@@allgold3rrthang😂😂😂😂

If you swapped Malik and Marvin's name around (Malik to Marvin, Marvin to Malik) then there wouldn't even be a debate who the WR1 is.

I think the opposite, anyone saying MHJ is the number 1 is just listening to the media lol I’ve been saying Nabers is the best WR in this class but it all comes down to style preference. Nabers is more aggressive in style and I appreciate that more in a WR

@@som3839 nabers is clear. MHj is just a media darling.

Marvs route running is better. But other than that u could be right.

Harrison jr is bigger and will most likely translate way better in the nfl. He’s also from Philly he’s gotta have some heart.

@@sirfish9824nabers is big asf he is built like dk

​@@sirfish9824When you look at the top WR's in the NFL they are around the size of Nabors not Harrison. The new prototype is smaller and more explosive not big like the old days.

Because he popularized the idea of mock drafts and made the idea of TV draft coverage what it is today. He’s the godfather of the modern draft.

mhj is my 13th wr. trey benson is my 17th rb. i am glad i am not an american!!!!

@@dodu8281 you serious?

@@argarg6203 i dont watch college football. i just use nfl draf buzz then i watched the top 30 all positions and their highlights. example, blake watson tape is top 5 for me. he is not listed on my dynasty team to choose in the draft. marvin harrison looks like the darling here, i havent seen break one tackle on my tape. he actually go down nobody around after the catch not even trying to keep going and kill people. i dont know not my kind of guy. nabers is on my top 5.

Do you even watch college football at all? He ran last year at c. J's pro day in every single. N f l team was there. His father explained. He's gonna be training to be the best wide receiver. He can be day one starting in the. Nfl, instead of wasting his time doing draft drills.

While MHJ is certainly a 'safe' prospect, I think his ceiling is lower than many realize. Don't forget, he has a tendency to disappear in games: 2023 vs. Minnesota: 3 catches for 30 yards vs. Rutgers: 4 catches for 25 yards vs. Notre Dame: 3 catches for 32 yards vs. Indiana: 2 catches for 18 yards

How is evaluating hating

Hill is significantly smaller and faster than Nabers… that’s a pretty dumb comp.

​@@NateBeeit's actually a pretty good comp based on play style. They don't have to be the exact same size and 40 to be similar haha

​@@NateBeeyou couldn't take 2 secs & think? Lol

Rome is not good. Go back on RU-vid someone created a video of all of his targets from this past season. You see a guy who struggles to separate. Offers zero run after the catch and oddly fumbles a lot

@@blankname6629 the guy who “struggled to separate” lead the nation in receiving yards, was 2nd in receptions among power 5 schools only behind Malik Washington who played at UVA which was particularly weak this year. So clearly he’s doing something right… oh yah he lead the nation in contested catch rate… over your boy MHJ who’s supposed to specialize in that. BTW, Malik Nabers has more career FUMLs than Odunze. If your primary critique is that he has 1 FUML in his entire career you’re only helping my argument.

I think both will be really good. I also like Thomas jr McConkey Roman Wilson ricky pearsall. Rome odunze has busy written all over him. The guy I hear works hard at getting better but his film stinks

Not that I think what he is doing is wrong or should drop his stock but we all know the NFL and the top brass want players to fall in line and do what they are asked

Odunze is not the best lol

If you put Odunze higher than 3rd, you better go do some research Lil homie

​@som3839 You said he isn't and I said he is. Cool

​@@KingofeverythingChicagoBearsLoL I can guarantee I've done more than you.

@@BoomorBust stop it!! 🤦🤡

Good, maybe you shouldn't either

MHJ is Megatron, Larry Fitzgerald, and Jerry Rice infusion.

@@AZsportshut🤯

​@@AZsportshuthe's not even remotely similar to Calvin lmao

Who on earth would want Field Yates on their show lmao

mhj is my 13th wr. trey benson is my 17th rb. i am glad i am not an american!!!!

Tried to sneak in Franklin😭

Brian Thomas is more AJ green, MHJ is a more explosive Devante Adams with his nuanced route tree. Malik is a faster AJ Brown imo, a little less physical but more explosive.

Rome is a smaller D-Hop then. Rome is taller but D-Hop's wingspan is 6'8 and Odunze's is 6'4. You don't catch the ball with the top of your head.

@@phl2150 oduze has a 3 inch higher vertical jump. Also being taller raises the circle of your catch radius, so while dehops might have a larger circumference, oduzes is 5 inches higher in the air. They’re similar because of their route running ability, their contested catch stats, the explosive first step, and their strong hands through contact. Oduze is bigger and faster and has a higher catch radius. My points still stand

🌶️🔥 🌶️ I like the take, we shall see.

Okudah is a DB Harrison Jr is the best not even close listen to Mel Kiper or even Cynthia Frelund

​@@KevinLopez-np8qmThose dudes know their stuff. Good advice.

@@broq9194 I think he uses and understands leverage as good or better than any college reciever I have seen and hes a hands catcher which helps.

Yeah, he's much better, stats don't lie.

Of course he would.

But Nabers had the better season....it wasn't even close

Watch ash interview with Marvin. He’s not selfish at all. Not working out is part of the strategy when you’re a top 10 guy.

@@ThePurpleParty420 yah when it’s a stacked WR class you don’t get this privilege or you will be passed up for guys who proved they are in the same boat that Harrison is. Nabers in my opinion already jumped Harrison. Odunze and Harrison are in the same level.

@@WAFFLEBOYPHD and that’s why you’re not an NFL scout. I’m not either, but if it barks like a dog and looks like a dog, it’s probably a dog.

@@ThePurpleParty420 I might not be a scout I’m tired people using this excuse to discredit other peoples opinions and what they think. I’ve been studying and doing my own research on all of theses talents since beginning of last year for my dynasty team and I know more then just the casual observer. I’m not saying Harrison will be bad in the league. I’m saying Harrison due to how he has acted over this time. Will turn teams away. I don’t care if you like or don’t it’s the truth. I wouldn’t wanna spend my 4th pick in the draft on a guy who refused to do anything.
