REWARDS: Harrison remains a very reliable weapon in the Colts’ passing game. Harrison enjoyed somewhat of a renaissance season in 2006 as his 1,366 receiving yards and 14.4 yards per reception were his highest totals since 2002. In addition to his prowess as a route runner, Harrison is a touchdown-scoring machine. He has posted eight consecutive campaigns with at least 10 touchdowns. Harrison continues to have great chemistry with All-Pro quarterback Peyton Manning. Harrison was utilized in over 14 percent of his team’s overall offensive plays in 2006, most amongst the team’s receivers.

RISKS: Harrison will be 35 years of age when the season starts, and you would expect him to hit the wall at some point. Despite scoring 12 touchdowns in 2006, Harrison was held without a score in nine of 16 games.

BOTTOM LINE: Despite the age factor, Harrison’s consistent production throughout his career warrants him a No. 1 spot on your fantasy team. Expect the Colts’ offense to remain pass-happy in 2007, particularly with the loss of running back Dominic Rhodes to the Oakland Raiders in the offseason.
