Draft Profile: Bio
Reed Harris grew up on a 12,000-acre farm in Conrad, Montana, before moving to Great Falls for middle school. He played quarterback at Great Falls High School before moving to receiver and linebacker as a senior, when he was a first-team all-state pick on both sides of the ball, a Gatorade Player of the Year finalist and the state 200-meter champion. Rated the top player in Montana, he signed with Boston College and became the first Montanan to play in the ACC.Harris redshirted in 2023 and became a deep threat in 2024, catching 17 passes for 486 yards and four touchdowns, an average of 28.6 yards a catch. He became Boston College's top target in 2025, catching 39 passes for 673 yards and five touchdowns despite a 2-10 season, and he won 13 of 25 contested targets without a drop. He transferred to Arizona State in January 2026 as one of the top receivers in the portal.
Harris has produced right away at Arizona State. He caught six passes for 137 yards and two touchdowns against Morgan State and nine for 189 yards and two scores at Texas A&M, then added 147 yards against Kansas State. He has 48 catches for 804 yards and eight touchdowns for a 4-4 team, though he caught one pass in quarterback Jake Fette's first start at BYU. Kenny Dillingham has said Harris prepares as well as anyone he has coached.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Big, long target who wins above defenders at the catch point
- Nine catches for 189 yards and two touchdowns at Texas A&M
- Averages nearly 17 yards a catch this season after 28.6 in 2024
- Strong hands, with one drop over the last two seasons
- Former quarterback who reads coverage and settles into soft spots
- Has 804 yards and eight touchdowns in eight games at Arizona State
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Average timed speed, so separation comes from size and route craft
- Contested success has dipped, with nine wins on 22 chances this season
- Short-area routes and quickness trail his vertical game
- BYU held him to one catch for four yards
Scouting Report: Summary
Harris is a big, long receiver who wins above defenders at the catch point and stretches the field. He averaged 28.6 yards a catch in 2024, became Boston College's top target in 2025 despite a 2-10 season and has taken another step at Arizona State, with 804 yards and eight touchdowns in eight games. His background as a quarterback shows in how he reads coverage and settles into soft spots. His one drop over two seasons is rare for a receiver with his volume.He announced himself early with nine catches for 189 yards and two touchdowns at Texas A&M, and he has kept producing, with 147 yards against Kansas State and two touchdowns against Hawaii. Kenny Dillingham has praised his preparation, and receivers coach Hines Ward has said he has not tapped into how good he can be. His hands have been reliable, with one drop over the last two seasons. He has drawn 80 targets in eight games, the clearest measure of how central he is.
However, his timed speed is average, so separation comes from size and route craft rather than burst, and his short-area routes trail his vertical game. His contested success has dipped this season, with nine wins on 22 chances, and his production has depended on his quarterback, as BYU showed when he caught one pass in Jake Fette's first start. He may also have eligibility remaining. Texas Tech also held him to 63 yards on 14 targets.
Overall, Harris is an ascending big-bodied receiver with the tools to start at X and serve as a red-zone weapon. He projects as a third-round receiver with the ceiling of a starting outside receiver and the floor of a big-bodied depth target. His size, hands and route feel give him a clear role on third down and in the red zone.
