Anton Harrison Scouting Report: Is The Quick Tackle Ready For The Pros?

Anton Harrison is an appealing Tackle prospect with a lot of reasons to buy in. The fanfare about him being a top-three Tackle has gone a little too far but he’s certainly up there. After being a four-star recruit, he chose Oklahoma and saw early reps at LT. He then became a full-time starter and had his best year in 2021 under coach Lincoln Riley. In his final year, he had his best statistics only giving up one sack with zero hurries. He is a pass-pro first Tackle which will bode well for many NFL teams. As he has good size, and athletic traits, he could be a seamless addition to a team in need of a Tackle.

Three all-22 games and two regular games were evaluated. This scouting report includes grades on all relevant traits which were based on his film. Stats and analytics, such as PFF grades, were also factored into his scouting report. Use promo code TREYSCHNEIDER on Underdog Fantasy to match your deposit up to $100.

Player Notes

Anton Harrison Bio

• Anton Harrison is as smooth as they come in pass pro and fits the prototypical LT mold. While he isn’t a mauler, he is a stellar athlete with fantastic footwork.

Pros

• The ideal athlete to play LT – great quickness and proper arm length at 34 1/8″.
• Staggering footwork for a prospect; mirrors EDGEs like it’s nothing.
• Patient and under control in pass-pro.
• Handles bend well as his hips are very fluid.
• Despite the lack of play strength, he handles power well due to his technique.
• Processes the play quickly and finds work in space.
• Plenty of quickness to reach the second level as a zone-run blocker.
• Quick and effective hand usage.
• Has the speed to be an impactful blocker on screens and stretch runs.

Cons

• Struggles to get a good drive in the run game due to his pad level.
• Just okay play-strength; isn’t going to bully players.
• Kickslide and get-off are good but not elite.
• Occasionally overextends his arms leaving him susceptible to getting off balance.
• Can get overwhelmed by speed-to-power rush.
• Very little experience in true pass sets.

Final Conclusion

To answer the initial question, Harrison is indeed ready to play in the pros. The only catch is you have to accept that he won’t elevate the run game on day one. He is capable in pass-pro and is one of the best prospects this year in that regard. However, he has his limitations beyond that, but he is still worth a late day-one pick.
