Damian Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 The Bills void the last two years of his contract: http://bills.buffalonews.com/2016/02/12/bills-harvin-due-to-become-free-agent/
The Big Cat Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 This is completely unsurprising, right? Also a week old? I'm confused.
Peter Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 This is completely unsurprising, right? Completely. I also would not be surprised if they sign him to a new deal at a modest price . . . presuming he wants to play, is healthy, and is willing to do so.
3rdand12 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) I actually am rather interested. If he comes back at all, i bet it is as a Bill under Lal. And if i had my druthers . He would. Dude is a great and versatile threat when healthy Edited February 19, 2016 by 3rdand12
YoloinOhio Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) The contract voided last Friday. He wasn't released. It means he becomes a UFA on March 9. Edited February 19, 2016 by Chandler#81

Damian Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 Apparently, contract voided means something different than being released/cut. Either way, he is no longer on the team. I would edit the title, if I could figure how to edit it.
CardinalScotts Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) I'm not so sure he won't be back Edited February 19, 2016 by CardinalScotts
Jamie Nails Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 I wouldn't be surprised if he comes back here.
Not at the table Karlos Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 I posted this last week but the thread kept disappearing
reddogblitz Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 I hope he doesn't come back. Spends far too much time on the PUP List.
PromoTheRobot Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 You can't count on him to finish 4 games much less a whole season. But no question he would be a huge help if 100%.
aristocrat Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 so does that mean we get the 2 mil in dead cap back?
hondo in seattle Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Harvin beat out Woods for #2 which might say good things about Percy or bad things about Woods. Harvin might not be the most refined route runner in the world but he does have a unique skill set. At 5'11" 184 lbs, we all know how fragile he's been in his career. He's only 27 (good) but has already missed 39 games due to injuries (bad). Worth signing to a new contract? At the right price, I think so. Based on the quotes we've read in the media, it sounds like DW wants him to stay and he wants to stay.

Based on the quotes we've read in the media, it sounds like DW wants him to stay and he wants to stay. it depends on how cheap they can get him. I agree that they want/need that type of player. They can either sign another one in FA which would cost more because the WR group is so weak, or draft one. If they draft one, WRs usually need some time to adjust to NFL coverages, route running, etc. So if they think that he is healthy enough to play a good portion of games and will sign for very cheap, I would say to do it. But that's a big If. I'm not too worried about his MIA act. His teammates seemed to support him at the time and as far as we know he didn't get into any issues prior to that.

Dorkington Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 If we can get the guy for dirt cheap, I'd welcome him back. Analyze games, and play him sporadically, optimizing his impact on our season. Ideally we'd draft a high upside guy in the late to mid rounds, or find someone in FA for cheap as well. I think Woods/Hogan are both solid players, but we need another playmaker at WR sometimes.
4merper4mer Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Harvin beat out Woods for #2 which might say good things about Percy or bad things about Woods. . It says bad things about Rex. Like he's dumb. The odds of Harvin staying happy healthy and motivated make Powerball look easy. It is more likely that Jerry Rice stumbles upon the fountain of youth and signs for vet minimum.
CommonCents Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Hopefully last year was when the lightbulb went on for this front office....your 2nd and 3rd WR's need some level of durability. How many times must we repeat this process? Get guys in here that can handle playing in the NFL and stop flirting with track stars that have a durability rating of 0. I don't even offer Percy the minimum.
