Round 7 • Pick 20
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Harris, who began his college career at Wisconsin, is a short, long-armed, inconsistent defensive lineman who, at his best, offers glimpses of athleticism, strength and versatility. However, his 'tweener traits and character red flags could knock him off draft boards and prevent him from fulfilling his potential. At his pro days, weighed in approximately 30 pounds heavier than his playing weight in 2012.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
A Florida transfer, Patchan’s lone season at BC was the first of his career in which he was a healthy, full-time starter. He’s a tall, stiff, linear, zone blocker whose relatively short wingspan dictates a shift to guard, though he isn’t ideally suited for the interior given his core strength deficiency and wobbly base. Practice-squad candidate who must dedicate himself to the weight room and the practice field and tap into the raw ability that made him a highly sought after recruit in order to have longevity.
