Read the breakdown by Ted Nguyen on the top 3 receivers. He ranks them Harrison, Odunze & Nabers with an excellent set of criteria.

PFF spends around 30 minutes evaluating them in their WR draft pre-view podcast. Also recommended.
Regardless of ratings, Nabers is the lesser fit for this offensive system. (and seems like a diva but that is another story)

"Don’t overthink it: Harrison is far and away the top receiver in this strong class." Bold statement!
Some former GM on the Athletic ranked them:
Odunze
Nabors
Harrison
Harrison was 8th on his board and his comment was "If you like Drake London, you will love this guy"

Exact quote on Harrison at #8: Before you start yelling at me for having Harrison at No. 8 with the two quarterbacks above, I see all three of these wide receivers as almost interchangeable depending on the team's needs at a particular skill set. I full expect all three to be drafted in the top eight, and Harrison might even be the first receiver to go. I get it. But I have a slight hesitation with his game versus press coverage and when he has to put his foot in the ground to separate from tight man-to-man coverage. If you like Drake London, you'll love Harrison. Still, teams might have these three ranked in a different order. All three are talented and will be good pros. It's just a matter of what style floats your boat.
His top 10 were:
Williams
Alt
Odunze
Fuaga
Nabers
McCarthy
Daniels
Harrison
Latu
Bowers

I listen to Mueller almost weekly on The Athletic Football Podcast and his takes are consistently pretty wrong and bad.Randy Mueller
