Not saying he isn't, but he's in a peculiar spot as far as his size goes. Whereas Harris has that big frame to work with.
Very similar to Dalvin Cook in size but not as fast, and at 5'11" it's going to be incredibly difficult to add any weight without losing a step.
The closest to him in size/speed is probably Marshawn Lynch, who has made his mark by being super physical and notoriously playing much bigger than his size.
Cam's work ethic sounds incredible, I'm sure he will ball out wherever he signs. I would say that he needs to go the Lynch route in a power run game, but who knows, maybe he can pick up the speed and play more of an open field style role.
Regardless, if I'm his coach next year I'm watching a shitload of tape on how Pete Carroll utilized Lynch.
