"Harper is a tall, physically-impressive wide receiver. His stature makes him an intimidating force to shorter defensive backs. Has very good hands and can catch the tough passes. Best suited for the inside slot receiver, but shows the ability to play on the outside. Runs very sharp, precise underneath routes." - Bucky Brooks, NFL.com

 "Harper might be one of those guys that's easy to overthink, as he doesn't really wow you on tape as a very explosive or athletic playmaker who can threaten defenses in the air or down the field. Despite Harper's lack of elite speed and high-point ability, the man always seems to find a way to get open and make tough catches. He'll do anything that's asked of him; battle hard for contested catches in the air, go across the middle, or quickly find a hole in the zone and show the quarterback his numbers." - Jon Ledyard, ProFootballSpot.com
