Harrison brings six years of real NFL starting experience to a Giants linebacker room that added him with the stated intention of using him right away rather than burying him on the practice squad. His 215 career tackles and 43 starts in Baltimore and Pittsburgh give him a floor as a dependable run-defense piece.
Strengths: Proven run-stopping linebacker with 215 career tackles and 43 career starts across two AFC defenses.
Weaknesses: Was let go by Pittsburgh at the end of training camp, and now must re-earn a defined role on a new team's defense.
