Slow down. I know you included “lite”, but he doesn’t compare to the playmaking of Moss

Question for LSU Fans: Will Malik Nabers be better than Marvin Harrison JR


A lot depends where each gets drafted.

They are both great. Malik had better numbers but to be fair to Harrison, he was in a much better offense.

Flip side is that Harrison gets a bump in most eyes because of his last name.

Overall, they are probably not far apart and any team should be glad to have either of them.

Hard to say. Couple of years ago LSU specifically debated who's better, Chase or Jefferson. Chase went to Cincy with Burrow and had a fantastic rookie year garnering most of the votes due to his QB. Jefferson meanwhile went to the Vikings and got "punished" by having poor old Kirk Cousins as his QB. Jefferson has lapped Chase in the time since. Situation, players own personal investment and luck factor in greatly.

Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik are pretty similar skill-wise, but Marvin is more of a physical specimen, which is why he’ll most likely be better in the NFL

I watched Harrison’s father in my earlier days, and that dude was a beast. Different types of players though..

That being said, I feel like Junior’s game stands all on his own, which says a whole lot and is completely crazy to me. Most of the time, the next guy that comes along (Eli, Arch, etc) never seems to measure up to the hype.. but yet this guy does..

So if wagering, I would bet on MHJr for that reason alone.. those are big shoes he is filling.. but Nabers is gonna be a stud too..

Crazy good WR draft this year.

Harrison
Nabers
Odunze
Coleman
Worthy
TD Mitchell
Thomas
A. Smith

When the talent is equal it comes down to who gets the better QB and coaching staff.

Not true Harrison is 6'4" 205 Malik is 6' 201. So as far physical wise Malik is the more physical specimen.

Nabers never got the accolades he deserved IMO. He should have been in consideration for the Heisman. Marvin Jr comes across as entitled. Probably because of who Daddy is.

It's hard to say. They are both very good. It will probably depend on who winds up on the better team. Nabers benefited from playing with the best QB in the country this year.

Harrison Jr put up 1200 yards and 14 TDs with Kyle McCord. Nabers put up 1500 and 14 TDs with JD5. Give Harrison Jr JD5 and he’s putting up 1700 and 16-18 TDs.

Stop - he is not.

He is still sharing the ball with BTJ.

The other 6’4 205 WR (same as Harrison Jr) that put up 17 TDs this year, and still isn’t as good as Harrison JR? Yeah you just proved my point.

Let’s conveniently leave out the fact that Nabers put up those numbers when his running mate lead the country in TDs and 1177 yards himself.

Had Nabers been the only WR that could put up WR1 numbers, they’d be that much better.

Let’s also not mention the fact that OSU got the ball more on offense because they had a top 5 defense that could get off the field on 3rd down.


Meanwhile LSU would sometimes wait 8-10 min of game time before getting the ball back because our defense was a sieve.

But sure if my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle.

Hard to say. At this point it depends on what teams they get drafted to. You can still be a star on a shitty team with a shitty QB but it wont show. You could also be a better player on a good team that doesnt give the touches you might get elsewhere. A yrs down the road will give a better idea.

Idk what’s more funny, the fact that you think the best WR prospect in years is somehow over ranked… or that you think tOSU (WRU) doesn’t have WR1s playing WR2 and WR3. Their entire starting receiving core are 5 stars, they consistently out recruit LSU in receivers.

But sure if Nabers didn’t have a heisman QB and had a QB that was forced out because he sucked, he’d somehow be better than MH Jr. Y’all are so biased it’s hilarious.
