While a lot of fans have been very critical of some of the moves made by Bears' GM Ryan Poles this off-season (or lack thereof), we are now able to see what were some of his motivations behind some signings he did make.
For all the talk about his shortcomings as a receiver, Harry established himself as one of the best run blockers WR. According to PFF, he held an 84.7 grade on 174 run-blocking snaps.
As you can see, the two best on the list are actually on the Bears' roster. I think this bodes well for the Bears' run game this season. Having great blockers at the receiving position is such an underrated aspect of any offense's success. I mean, this is basically the difference between an 8-yard run and a 70-yard run on many occasions.
