Harris ended his collegiate career as the Crimson Tide’s all-time leading rusher. Waddle was one of college football’s most electrifying playmakers at wide receiver and return specialist.
Harris expects to become a 1,000-yard rusher for the Steelers, while Waddle is about to elevate the Dolphins’ passing game. Both were taken by AFC teams, so it will be fun to see what happens.
