Summary

Derrick Harmon is a tall, broad interior defensive line prospect ideally suited for the 1-technique role at the next level. Despite lacking explosive athleticism, his mobility is noteworthy for his size, avoiding any label of sluggishness or stiffness. He demonstrates sufficient first-step quickness to maneuver across blockers and effectively uses his hands to disengage and disrupt plays. While he aims to penetrate, his lack of elite explosion limits consistent success in this area.

Harmon’s strength lies in initial contact and leveraging his upper-body power to shed blocks and make stops near the line of scrimmage. His functional flexibility allows adjustments in angles to locate ball-carriers, although his closing speed can vary. As a pass rusher, he relies more on technique than a diverse repertoire, capable of disrupting but lacking extensive moves. While his pad level starts well, it tends to rise during games, impacting his anchoring and power.

In summary, Harmon is a reliable interior defender with refined skills suited for close-quarter play. While not a standout athlete, his size, strength and technical prowess offer potential as a rotational player, contributing effectively, especially on passing downs.
