would be nice to have a return threat, haven't had one since Hall... With the baggage make me wonder with Jon Baldwin already punched Jones last season all he needs is someone like Percy making him worse. ( is Jon reeruned Jones arms are the size of my head) Not that I'm big on Baldwin he has his moments though. All in All I like Harvin as an athlete maybe all he needs is a change of scenery

He likes to smoke a lot of weed. He should play for the Donkies.

Harvin is expected to hold out under current deal
Posted by Mike Florio on February 11, 2013, 1:49 PM EST AP With so much talk about what the Vikings want to do with receiver Percy Harvin, there hasn’t been much talk about what Harvin wants to do with the Vikings. And Harvin, at this stage of his career, wants to get paid. Last year, when Harvin asked for a trade, he wasn’t unhappy with his financial situation. But he then viewed 2012 as a contract year. Which means that, even with one year left on his rookie deal, Harvin wants a new contract. And he could be preparing to take a stand in order to get it. Per a league source, Harvin currently is expected to stay away from offseason workouts and training camp absent a new deal. He’s due to make $2.9 million in 2013. It’s unclear what he wants, but high-end wideouts earn at or about eight figures annually. And while it’s also unclear whether Harvin wants to stay in Minnesota, whether the Vikings will pay him what he wants surely has a lot to do with whether he’ll want to stay. Because Harvin has four years of service, he could stay away from training camp and skip up to 10 weeks of the regular season while still getting credit toward the final year of his contract and becoming an unrestricted free agent next year. Though he would face significant fines and the loss of multiple game checks, a holdout is likely unless he signs a new contract.

So the Vikings, who have spent every day the past 4 years dealing with Harvin, are looking to deal him.
That tells me everything I need to know. Pass. Not interested in giving up a R2 or R3 pick for a guy with a history of being a massive ****tard, regardless of how talented he is when he decides to play. Dude's had issues at every level of the game. That's not gonna change. A draft pick and a Brinks truck of cash for that? No thanks. |

I'm duplicating this post from another forum I posted on, but I did a little research on Percy Harvin:
Harvin has 280 receptions, 3302 yards and 20 TDs through his first 4 years. He also didn't play 7 games this year. So I did a search on ProFootballReference to see what other players have posted receptions, yards, and TD number higher than this in their first 4 seasons. Here are the players: Moss, Holt, Boldin, Fitzgerald, Sterling Sharpe, Isaac Bruce, Marvin Harrison, Chad Johnson, Andre Rison, Keyshawn Johnson, Marques Colston, Brandon Marshall, and Al Toon. 13 other players. Harvin also has 107 carries for 683 yards (6.4 ypc) and 4 rushing TDs in his career. Players that have 5 kick return TDs in their first 4 seasons? Him and Josh Cribbs.

Did you know, Harvin led all Wide Receivers in broken tackles this year with 22? He played in 9 frikkin games. The next closest was Marshall, with 17.

Failing multiple drug tests, many that were swept under the rug by Urban Meyer, and one during the Combine. Grabbing his WR coach by the neck and throwing him to the ground. Having serious entitlement issues at UF. Taking games off due to "headaches." And that's just off the top of my head. The Minnesota Vikings - who have Adrian Peterson and ****ing slapdicks on offense are willing to part ways with Harvin - tells me everything I need to know. A team that is DESPERATE for playmakers is cutting the only one they have not named Peterson loose. And it's going to take a high pick AND a ****ton of cash. **** that. |
