I fully expect the phones to be ringing off the hook for GM Monti Ossenfort, with teams looking to move up for a quarterback, but Harrison is a perfect fit in Arizona. This Cardinals' roster has a clear and obvious need for a top wideout, and that's especially true now that, a 2023 third-rounder who had 565 yards last season. Harrison has 6-3 size, good speed, sure hands and a wide catch radius, and he'd be the immediate WR1 forfrom the Texans.
The most explosive player in the class fits perfectly with a team that was already short of playmakers before losing running back. Nabers averaged 17.6 yards per catch and forced 27 missed tackles last season; he can beat defenders with his vertical speed down the field or take a short throw and turn it into a massive gain in a hurry. The Giants have worked hard this offseason to fortify the offensive line, but a game-altering wideout is still very much needed.
