Redskins select North Carolina State WR Kelvin Harmon in Round 6

Ahead of the 2019 NFL Draft, it was believed by many that North Carolina State wide receiver Kelvin Harmon was due to be a Day 2 pick. Harmon was likened to Alshon Jeffery by some scouts, with his imposing 6-foot-3, 214-pound frame and his general ability to move the chains with reliability. He was considered as a potential Washington Redskins prospect.

Harmon didn’t test particularly well at the NFL Combine, and his testing numbers may have played a part in his surprising slide in the 2019 NFL Draft. The Redskins themselves passed on him four times on Day 3, opting to take Bryce Love, Wes Martin, Ross Pierschbacher, and Cole Holcomb beforehand.
