Harrison Wallace III, along with his fellow Ole Miss WR De'Zhaun Stribling, left a lasting impression on the NFL scouts in Indianapolis on Friday.

The WR ran his drills on Friday, and his performance was enough to give his draft stock a decent boost.

Harrison Wallace III's 40-yard dash time

Measuring at 6'0" and 192 pounds, Wallace III clocked 4.54 on his 40-yard dash and completed his 10-yard split in 1.58 seconds.

Coming from Penn State to Ole Miss, Wallace III was billed as a vertical threat. While 4.94 is a decent start, the expectations were more in that department from the WR.

Plus, he dropped a couple of concentration drops during the gauntlet and receiving drills. Other than that, the WR's performance was enough to cement him as a late Day 2 to Day 3 pick in the Draft.

NFL's Lance Zierlein ranks Wallace III as an average backup or special teams person based on his Combine performance, but teams might want to draft him higher based on the leadership skills he showed during his media day appearance.

"Wallace is a leggy long-strider who played deep into the College Football Playoff in consecutive seasons at Penn State and Ole Miss. While his catch production has jumped in the last two seasons, he has trouble beating press and uncovering over the first two levels, which makes it tougher to project continued improvement as a pro," Zierlein wrote of the Alabama native in his scouting report.

"While he’s likely to see a higher number of contested catches, he’s built for it. He shows little concern when working into traffic and battling for 50/50 throws. Wallace lacks route versatility, so a role as a possession slot receiver with zone-beating talent could give him the best chance to succeed."
