Just ask Deion Harris.
The former Hibbing Bluejacket and University of North Dakota standout moved to Dallas, Texas, at the beginning of January to start his training regimen for the draft.
He’s put in hours upon hours of work, trying to hone his craft, believing that he will be one of those fortunate draft picks.
The way it looks now, Harris could be attending an NFL training camp in July because he’s been working hard on his body and his game.
To do that, Harris moved to Dallas to workout with his father, Johnnie, Clay Mack and strength coach John Kasa.
“My dad has some good connections,” Harris said. “I got a lot of help from some of the best in the game. They’re always with me in every category, and that’s what is making me better.
“Those three guys have made some big contributions to what I’m going through now.”
In those workouts, Harris was weightlifting, running the 40, doing the broad and vertical jumps and shuttle run, among other things in preparation for his Pro Day, which took place on March 28, in Fargo.
“There’s a lot of things that go into a pro day,” Harris said. “You want to get good numbers for the scouts, so they can see where you’re at athletically.”
At his Pro Day, Harris said a total of 47 scouts attended the workout.
“There were a lot of people there,” Harris said. “It was nerve racking at first, but I was ready for the competition. It was fun.”
Harris would go on to bench 225 pounds 16 times, and he ran his 40 in 4.5. He also did his broad and vertical jumps, along with the agility drills, including the 20-yard shuttle run.
He also did some drills at his cornerback position.
Harris’ performances must have impressed some of the scouts.
“I did well on all of my agility drills,” Harris said. “I showed them that I can move. It was a challenge, but you have to mind your Ps and Qs all of the time. That’s why I work on my craft. I have to be ready for anything that comes my way.
“My agent told me I better set the bar high. I had to run better than a 4.6. That was good on my part.
Harris said his father has had a big impact on his training. Johnnie had a five-year NFL career, playing with both the New York Giants and Oakland Raiders.
“He’s helped a lot, teaching me the ropes as to how things are done in the NFL,” Harris said. “Having that by my side helps. He’s somebody I can turn to.”
Since his Pro Day, Harris hasn’t taken many days off because he knows there are no guarantees in life.
“I have to maintain, and keep working on my craft,” Harris said. “I don’t want to be rusty going into a training camp. I have to keep my body as good as it can be. I know what I’m capable of doing.
“The teams know that, too. Any teams that pass on me are going to regret it later on.”
Harris did say that a couple of teams have expressed interest in him, but he was at liberty to name them.
“My dream is to play in the NFL, and knowing that teams are interested in me is a good feeling,” Harris said.
After his junior season at UND, Harris was projected as a first-round pick on some draft boards, but he injured his Achillie’s heel during an off-season workout, and had to sit out his senior year with the Fighting Hawks.
How did that affect his draft stock?
“It dropped at first,” Harris said. “They doubted me and my ability to run, move and jump at a high level. Since my Pro day, I’m right there. I’m an elite player, so that opened some eyes for them.”
Now, it’s a waiting game for the draft to begin. He won’t be at the draft, which is in Nashville, Tenn.
He’ll either be in Hibbing or Dallas watching it on the television.
To that end, Harris isn’t too concerned about where or what round he is selected. He just wants the chance to play in the NFL.
“As long as I get drafted, that’s the main thing,” Harris said. “I’m excited, but I have to calm myself down. I am counting down the days for it to happen. I’m curious to see where I end up.
“It’s going to be nerve racking, but I want to find out where I go. If that happens, it will be a dream come true.”
