Luke Pell is "perfect on paper," according to The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison, but will that be enough for Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher?

Pell is one of five men Harrison told Yahoo! TV that fans need to watch out for this season. He'll be one of 26 men competing for Fletcher when The Bachelorette's twelfth season premieres Monday, May 23 at 9PM ET/PT on ABC.

According to Harrison, Fletcher will have a "very dynamic group" of guys on her hands. So what sets the 31-year-old war veteran from Burnet, TX, apart from the rest?

"Luke is one of my favorite guys this season and has one of the best stories," Harrison revealed. "I am a sucker for people who serve."

The franchise host couldn't help but gush about Pell's long list of qualities, potentially making him marriage material.

"He went to West Point. He was a platoon leader in the Afghan war and he also has the ridiculous Hollywood leading man good looks," Harrison explained. "He is smart, kind, and charming."

Something Pell can bond with Fletcher over is the fact they've both got Texas roots. Fletcher is a 25-year-old real estate developer from Dallas who certainly has southern charm.

"He is the whole package," Harrison continued. "He is a Texas boy, so he and JoJo have that in common. He really fits for JoJo."

But even if Pell is close to "perfect," that doesn't necessarily mean he'll be the right guy for Fletcher.

"He might be too perfect on paper but not add up in real life," Harrison told Yahoo! TV.
