David Harris is a career quality starter — a pass rusher whose body of work places Harris in the top quarter of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Harris's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A top 20% all-time edge rusher who consistently made an impact across multiple seasons. Lower snap-level production reinforces the playmaking ability.
Worth 142 points of value above a freely-available replacement linebacker — top 16% of all 4,666 ranked at the position. 10 of 11 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +14.2 on average.See board →
