A run-heavy offensive system, based on zone and power blocking, demands backs who can create after contact and contribute as receivers.
As a rookie, Harper can develop a complementary role as a third-down back, contributing to passing downs and red-zone packages, and he has the potential to become a reliable rotational player due to his versatility.
An Air Raid system that relies on its backs to be scheme-versatile and work in space would not effectively utilize his downhill running style.
Harper's blend of power and receiving skills makes him a suitable addition to a team looking for depth and situational contributions from the running back position.
