Najee Harris In Play For Steelers At Pick No. 24?
4 years agoAlabama running back Najee Harris is one of the top-three running backs heading into Thursday's NFL draft -- along with Clemson's Travis Etienne and North Carolina's Javonte Williams -- and most teams think that Harris will be taken by No. 24 overall (Pittsburgh Steelers) in the first round. Harris is a top between-the-tackles runner that can handle a heavy workload and also has excellent hands as a pass-catcher. Adding a back of Harris' caliber would immediately boost one of the worst rushing attacks in the league. Etienne is the most dynamic back in the draft, especially in the passing game. He can do serious damage in the open field with the ball in his hands. Williams could be the most complete back of the trio. He has excellent vision and elite lateral quickness. Williams is a sleeper that could slide into the first round.
