Chris Harris: Bradley Chubb like a young Khalil Mack

Another summer week provides more praise for Denver Broncos rookie defensive end Bradley Chubb.

Former NFL star DeMarcus Ware, who served as a Broncos pass-rush consultant during the offseason workout program, recently .

Now, Broncos cornerback Chris Harris has joined the fray by showering praise on the fifth overall pick of the 2018 .

"Oh, man, he has all the tools," Harris told Alex Marvez and Gil Brandt on Late Hits, . "He kind of looks like a young Khalil Mack.

"Big, he's around 280, around there. He can move, so I see him being all over the field. I think he'll start. He's been able to be that big of an impact player in OTAs, so I think he'll start next year across from [], for sure."

At 6-foot-4, 279 pounds, Chubb outweighs the 6-foot-3, 252-pound Mack by 27 pounds, and Mack, a two-time All-Pro selection, has the 2016 NFL Defensive Player of the Year award on his resume.

The comparison, however, likely has to do with Chubb's potential as a pass rusher.

Chubb brings collegiate credentials from North Carolina State, where he totaled 26 sacks and earned first-team All-American status in 2017 while winning the prestigious Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Ted Hendricks Award.

Given the summer-hype train continues to gain momentum, all eyes will be on Chubb in training camp.
