The pick: N’Keal Harry, WR, Arizona State

"Harry, a 6’4″ 213-lbs. wide receiver from Arizona State University, is the perfect X-receiver for today’s NFL. His big-frame and soft hands makes him a perfect match for Lamar Jackson as he matures into being a better NFL quarterback. A wise man once said, “when you have an inaccurate quarterback, get him guys with a big catch radius,” and that’s precisely what Harry brings to the Ravens offense. During his three-year tenure with the Sun Devils, Harry notched over 3,000 scrimmage yards and 25 touchdowns, not including a 99-yard punt return last season or his 14-yard touchdown pass in 2017. Harry is insane with the ball in his hands. Guys his build shouldn’t be able to move the way he does, and yet he is consistently outrunning the opposition and creating havoc after the catch. Put the ball in “Real-Deal” N’Keal’s hands and watch him work. —Richard Bradshaw"

The 2019 NFL Draft is wide receiver heavy, and it makes sense for Baltimore to aim high for a wide receiver. New GM Eric DeCosta will be hoping to clear the Ravens history of failed wide receiver picks and grab a winner. Arizona State’s N’Keal Harry could be that guy.

Harry is everything you want in a receiver and is a fantastic value at pick 22. Get used to not only me, but a lot of draft pundits mocking Harry to the Baltimore Ravens. When it comes to team fits in the 2019 NFL Draft, Harry and Baltimore fit like a glove.
