NFL teams have been salivating over Marvin Harrison Jr. since the Ohio State junior started lighting up opposing secondaries last year, and now they’ll finally get their chance to take him this spring at the 2024 NFL draft.
While there’s a small glimmer of hope from Buckeyes fans that Harrison won’t declare for the NFL, instead opting to return to Ohio State and rake in more name, image and likeness money, former NFL star J.J. Watt burst their bubble with some logic.
“Marvin Harrison Jr. will go Top 5 in the upcoming draft,” Watt wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, on Thursday. “He’ll average ~$9M/yr over 4 years. $9M would be a gigantic NIL number. More importantly, if he stays, he’s one year further away from the massively lucrative 2nd contract. He’s earned the opportunity and he deserves it.”
