<p>Najee Harris said after the game, <strong><em>“I saw him coming, but he got so low. I tried to meet him there. He rang my bell. That’s the stuff I like right there. That’s the football I like.”</em></strong> In a joking manner, in the play Harris met Adams head on and the bang left fans at home and in the stadium shocked.</p>

<p>While Harris attributed the hit to “just Football” it was one of the highlight hits of the young NFL season. Harris and the Steelers have a bye week in week 7 but come back and hope to make it three in a row against the Cleveland Browns in week 8. </p>

<p>Using a first-round pick on a running back is always a huge risk when it comes to the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nfl-t20281" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a><strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nfl-t20281" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a> Draft.</strong> Running backs aren’t as durable as they were and they’re pretty much expendable for most teams. That’s why multiple people thought the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/pittsburgh-steelers-t93952" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Pittsburgh Steelers</strong></a> were making a mistake by using the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-draft-2021-funniest-memes-and-reactions-20210430-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> 24th overall pick</a> in <strong>Najee Harris.</strong></p>
<p>Harris was a huge difference-maker during his stint with the <strong>Alabama Crimson Tide</strong>, improving on a yearly basis and helping them win a national championship. He’s 6’2, strong, and has a solid ability to change directions and break tackles.</p>
<p>That prompted the Steelers to use their<strong> first-round pick</strong> on him, as they believe that he’s just the perfect player to take their offense to the next level and take the division away from the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/baltimore-ravens-t99154" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Baltimore Ravens</a> and <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/cleveland-browns-t98379" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cleveland Browns</a> </strong>again.</p>

<h2>Steelers’ GM Says Najee Harris Is An NFL-Ready, Three-Down Back</h2>
<p>When asked about their pick, Steelers General Manager <strong>Kevin Colbert </strong>said that Harris was making NFL runs in college already and that<strong> Urban Meyer’s</strong> system in Alabama would help him have a smooth transition to the pros:</p>
<p><em>“Najee is a well-rounded running back that played in a pro system. <strong>He made NFL runs routinely, and he could also play in the passing game, both as a receiver and as a blocker. He’s basically a three-down back coming from an NFL-like system, plugging into a similar type system. </strong>He made NFL runs at the collegiate level. He did it at a high level. He helped them win a national championship, so hopefully he can help us win some games,”</em> Colbert told <strong>ProFootballTalk Radio.</strong></p>

<h2>Colbert Says Harris Will Make The Steelers’ Offense Better</h2>
<p>Colbert added that he believes that Harris will make an immediate impact as their bell-cow running back. He thinks that the Steelers’<strong> revamped offensive line</strong> plus the addition of Harris will help them take their offense to a whole new level:</p>
<p><em><strong>“Well, we think anytime you talk about the running game, you talk about what starts up front,”</strong></em> Colbert added. <em>“You talk about your receivers being able to get open, your quarterback being able to complete passes. Having a well-rounded passing game that opens up for the running back in addition with having a capable runner. We had capable runners last year. Our offensive line went through a transition. H<strong>opefully, we’re going to come out the other side of it. It’s comprehensive. When we had the opportunity to take a guy like Najee, we think that’ll help significantly with our run game.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Pittsburgh’s running game last season was pedestrian at best. <strong>James Conner </strong>was inefficient and often hurt, and <strong>Ben Roethlisberger’</strong>s game didn’t do much to open up lanes on the ground either. Hopefully, Harris will be that running back they’ve been craving since<strong> Le’Veon Bell’s</strong> departure.</p>
