Scouting Journals for Gabe Harris

Highly physical defender who plays with an edge that few in the 2023 cycle can match. Measured a shade shy of 6-foot-4 and around 245 pounds with a 33.25-inch arm, giving him requisite length for the position. May not have much more room for growth on his frame. Played against top competition at a top high school program in South Georgia prior to transferring to IMG for his senior year. Embraces contact. Physical at the point of attack. Effective in setting the edge and excels as a run defender. Sheds offensive linemen to make plays against the run. More of a power and straight line pass rusher as opposed to winning with pure speed and bend, but showed progress on that front as a senior. Drew high praise during his time at IMG. A solid not spectacular athlete. Plays with a high effort level. Has the look of a high floor prospect who could tap into his upside with continued progress as a pass rusher.
