I love Harris. To me, he is a PROTOTYPE, perfect sized back in today's NFL.
He's 5'8.
He's low to the ground, strong, and quick. He doesn't go down easy, and it's harder for the tacklers to get him down by the knees because they're so low to the ground, they almost have to dive.... and if they dive, and miss, he's past them.
I truly, seriously, feel he could be as good as Ray Rice for us. If we wanted him to be.... even with our current OL.
But the thing is, A) our offense is better than the Ravens because B) Rodgers is the best weapon in the NFL. You can't feature a RB 25 times a game. Plus few can last 25 carries a game anyway. But Harris is a stud and I feel like he has the ability to develop into a Priest Holmes, Arian Foster undrafted stud RB for us. It would be in our team's best interest to start to have a little more success running because it will mean fewer hits on Rodgers.
Fewer hits means longer until Rodgers gets hurt, and it also means the DE's can't just keep pinning their ears back every time to go after #12. If they're on their toes more, it makes it a little easier for our OL to protect Rodgers.
Imagine Rodgers getting 4.5 seconds to pass vs 3.5 seconds to pass.
So I want to see DuJuan Harris a lot Saturday night... feed him 16 carries, he'll break a 40+yard TD, end up with 110 yards. Also, dump a pass or two off to him like we were starting to do to Benson before his foot cracked in Indy.
