Pros

Cons

Overall

Mario Harvey is another player who I feel is very underrated. How a guy with the production that Harvey had in college, that runs a 4.45 40 at 250 Pounds does not get any attention at all is beyond me. I definitely understand his limitations in size, and coverage, but Harvey is a proven commodity with a lot of talent. His incredible tenacity and motor make him very exciting to watch, and after getting snubbed by the East-West Shrine Game, Senior Bowl, and Combine, Harvey is sure to come in with a chip on his shoulder. He really needs to improve in coverage to stay on the field for all 3 downs, otherwise he will only be a productive special teamer, which is what he will be at the very least. His size also limits him in terms of schematic versatility, but he fits the "Thumper" Prototype, and reminds us a little of London Fletcher-Baker. If Harvey can become functional in coverage, he will be a very productive NFL Linebacker. If not, then he at least will be one of the better special team players in the league.
