Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 If his heart isnt in it then release him now We need the roster spot CBF
26CornerBlitz Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 @billsupdates Is Buffalo Bills WR Percy Harvin considering retiring? Reports are conflicting http://ow.ly/TIu5d
dorquemada Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 he clearly feels threatened by Chris Hogan I for one am really glad that we kept Hogan around. He's not made of crystalized sugar and gentle winds like the rest of the receiving corps (ok not robert woods). That and he catches everything throw at him.
YoloinOhio Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 @JasonLaCanfora: As reported Sunday, Harvin would be out for a significant period of time. Having issues related to prior hip injuries. Visited specialists

The Frankish Reich Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Harvin has caught 70 balls since the start of the 2013 season (38 possible games) for a total of 718 yards. 10.25 yards/catch. He's been an impact player in exactly one game during that time, and that game happened to be the Super Bowl. Without that game, he'd have been out of the NFL by now. Time to move on.
NoSaint Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 If his heart isnt in it then release him now We need the roster spot CBF harvin as a complete question mark is worth more than any 53rd guy we could put on the roster.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 Put him on IR then We could use the roster spot CBF Sounds like the right move.
billsfan_34 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Put him on IR then We could use the roster spot CBF And who do we add as a receiver?
The Frankish Reich Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 And I suspect that issue is this: Bills probably would be happy to cut him now, but Harvin claims injury and that he must be on IR getting paid.
YoloinOhio Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 @MikeGarafolo: What @viccarucci tweeted is accurate, btw. Harvin frustrated by another hip injury. NFL career's been rocky. Not feeling football right now.
Bleed Bills Blue Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Injury bells (chimes of doom) are breaking up that old playoff team of mine.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 @billsupdates Is Buffalo Bills WR Percy Harvin considering retiring? Reports are conflicting http://ow.ly/TIu5d According to NFL sources, Harvin is deciding whether he wants to continue playing as the result of a nagging hip injury that kept him out of last Sunday's loss against Cincinnati. The Bills are "comfortable with the possibility of moving on without" Harvin, a league source said. During his media briefing Thursday, coach Rex Ryan, "I'm not going to say any more on" Harvin "than" Wednesday, "because I don't know where he is right now."
Max997 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 He looks really slow out there to my eye. Not explosive at all. It wouldn't surprise me if he called it quits so he's not crippled by age 40. my thoughts exactly, decent for a slot receiver but he hasnt done anything Hogan couldnt do
Gugny Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 In pure Harvin fashion, he's adding drama to the team stupid enough to give him money. He's a selfish prick. Just quit and save the Bills the trouble.
YoloinOhio Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Maybe the biggest loss here is financial. What was his guaranteed $? Actually I don't care. Moving on. @ConorOrr: Kudos to @viccarucci who nailed the Harvin thing. Retirement absolutely on the table.
NoSaint Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Maybe the biggest loss here is financial. What was his guaranteed $? Actually I don't care. Moving on. it was a 1 year deal. its not a very dramatic situation, really. hes fine to carry while we see what happens. we certainly arent cutting him til the offseason, but if it turns out hes done they will be fine IRing him.
The Frankish Reich Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 http://grantland.com/the-triangle/tell-your-grandkids-about-the-2015-buffalo-bills/ So how's that "let's get a bunch of small quick guys and make them try to cover all of them" theory going? Tyrod, McCoy, Sammy, Percy ... all missing significant time. This is often spun by Bills fans as "why to bad things always happen to the Bills? Look at our injury list." The truth is: build your offense around small, quick guys who are higher than average injury risks, don't act shocked when they get injured. (I know, McCoy has been sturdy, put he's an aging back who depends on quickness)
Augie Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 it was a 1 year deal. its not a very dramatic situation, really. hes fine to carry while we see what happens. we certainly arent cutting him til the offseason, but if it turns out hes done they will be fine IRing him. Exactly - no one is retiring while the big checks keep rolling in. He'll collect every penny here, then decide what's next.
NoSaint Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Exactly - no one is retiring while the big checks keep rolling in. He'll collect every penny here, then decide what's next. yup - the only question mark is how many weeks theyd keep him active before IR comes into play. otherwise, seems like it should be a pretty simple path from here realistically.
