View topic - Where does Harrison Rank?

I think i've slowly come to the realization that, despite having guys like Joey Porter, Jason Gildon, Earle Holmes, Kirkland, Lloyd, Greene, etc...


Harrison may be one of the best linebackers we've ever had. He might honestly rank in the top 5 even. I think he could honestly make a case for it.


What do you guys think? Where would u rank him.


I think as an outside linebacker even, nobody's performed from a week to week basis as well as he has in a long time.

You think?
He's a Monster. I've seen them all. Lambert, Ham , Lloyd ,Greene. I believe he belongs
in the same catagory. He reminds me most of Lloyd.

The adage that it's hard to compare players across eras is especially true here since Ham, Lambert were playing in a 4-3 (behind a stellar front 4) in a run-oriented era, not the 3-4 that Harrison plays in, in a pass-oriented era. Compared to his peers there is no doubt Harrison is playing at a high level. Too bad we couldn't have gotten him to play at that level when he was younger. Let's see how long he can keep it up. What's good to note is that the big contract doesn't seem to have softened up his desire any, as it so often does in the NFL.
