Hail to the Chief
In this the 3rd preseason game for the Cowboys, Dwayne Harris has 2 first quarter td passes from Tony Romo in the game vs. the Rams tonight. Is he making a move to become the 3rd WR for the Cowboys? So far he as 3 catches for 118 yards and td's that were 61 yards and 38 yards.
The 2nd year WR was considered an undervalued prospect last year by FBG staffer Matt Waldman. Waldman had Harris as the #10 rookie WR for dynasty last year, behind Green, Jones, Cobb, Little, Torry Smith, Hankerson, Salas, Vincent Brown, and Cameron Kenney.
From Matt Waldman's 2011 Rookie Scouting Portfolio:
Underrated WR Prospects
"Dwayne Harris, ECU: Harris may lack Jerrel Jernigans speed, but hes a more versatile player with a higher baseline of
skill at this point in their careers. Harris catches the football better against contact and he runs with greater power. Like
Jernigan, Harris has terrific open field vision and enough speed to produce as a return specialist. Jernigan also tends to
suffer minor injuries that take him out of series with enough frequency that there might be concerns about his durability.
Harris is not only a more durable, physical player, but at the Senior Bowl he made incremental improvements to his
releases, routes, and blocking with every drill. This shows a capacity to learn quickly. Mike Wallace is a great example of a
raw player who learned fast as a rookie. I dont think Harris will develop at this fast of a rate, but I think hell become a
more versatile and productive offensive player sooner than Jernigan."

Dwayne Harris. He is one of my favorite players from ECU. He was a great player for the Pirates, and a lot of fun to watch. Good things happened when he touched the ball. I hope he gets more playing time in Dallas.
