WR Marvin Harrison Jr. - Cardinals

Unlike the first two players on this list, the Cardinals' luck in getting Marvin Harrison Jr. is good because Arizona is not in the Chargers division, so their meetings will only happen once every few years.

But that won't help LA this upcoming season, unfortunately.

Harrison Jr. was considered the best receiver of the 2024 class, with some analysts speculating he could have gone off the board before some of the top-ranked quarterbacks. That didn't happen, but he was the first pass-catcher taken and will instantly become Kyler Murray's go-to weapon.

The Ohio State alum was labeled a generational talent heading into the draft, and his production through the three years spent there seems to fit it perfectly. Harrison Jr. recorded 155 receptions for 2,613 yards and 31 touchdowns from 2021 to 2023, with his most impressive years being the most recent.

He will inevitably be an imposing figure on the field within Arizona's offense and will need to be accounted for every time he's in the game.

It won't be an easy task for the Chargers, or any team for that matter, so they'll have to game plan accordingly and not allow him to win the game for his team single-handedly.
