He is excellent with his hands especially when it comes to keeping them inside. Rarely does he allow his hands outside of the shoulder pads.

This is against TCU and I sure do not see him getting pushed back in the passing game.

Against Nebraska the deficiencies you state certainly are not an issue.

This was against K State and of these three was definitely his worst game and even so at 8:57 was the only time his assignment touched the QB.

I will see what other film I can find but just not seeing what you are apparently.

Its easy to pass it over considering Oklahoma runs a ton of RPOs so he jump sets most of the time. Watch his verts when rushers use speed to power his hands are late wide gives up his chest and can't drop his anchor and while he has quick smooth feet he's actually more of a linear player so he's stiff in the ankles and hips.

That's the thing about these athletic Big 12 tackles we see every year (and it starting to spread ). They jump set alot and that doesn't translate to the NFL all that well.

Lance Zeirlein's Breakdown

Quote:Overview
Collegiate left tackle with good size and length, but average athletic traits. Harrison is self-aware and does a nice job of utilizing his strengths to mask his weaknesses. He has a feel for pocket depth and uses his length and an inside-out approach to get the job done, but NFL speed could have him scrambling without help. Harrison lacks the pop and drive of a plus run blocker and is better at neutralizing opponents with proper positioning. There are some limitations athletically and it won’t always look fluid, but Harrison has the demeanor and football savvy to get the job done as a starter in time.

Strengths

• Hands remain punch-ready in protection.
• Patient not to overset or overextend at the top of the rush.
• Fires his hands with some pepper on them.
• Finds full arm extension to maintain feel for rusher.
• Will find work when uncovered.
• Instinctive in his positional run blocking.
• Adequate fluidity climbing to linebackers.
• Activates hands to discard opponent’s punch.
  

Weaknesses

• Has trouble locating initial hands in run game.
• Average foot chop with elevated pads as drive blocker.
• Fails to knock opponents back at first contact.
• Might not have slide quickness for desired diagonal sets.
• Connection between feet and hands is disjointed.
• Can be rocked backward by speed-to-power rush.
• Below average agility to recover when beaten.
