BaaadThingsMan Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 I guess my negativity stems from the body of work as a whole. Incredible talent followed by chronic and bizarre injury concerns, each one worse by comparison. If the guy is healthy and can help, great. I'll be on the wait and see side until then.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 I know why. Rex needed a captain vs Seattle. Great call
RyanC883 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 I don't mind it. I like it better than giving up future assets and bringing in a player who has to 1. learn the playbook and 2. develop chemistry with TT. This does both of those. In season trades rarely work anyways. exactly. I like this move.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) He bailed on the team and didn't let them know anything for weeks. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.yahoo.com/amphtml/sports/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/rex-ryan--report-have-conflicting-stories-on-why-percy-harvin-s-not-in-london-155421296.html?client=safari He also has a history of quitting. https://www.google.com/amp/www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/report-wr-percy-harvin-refused-to-enter-3-games-this-year/amp/?client=safari But since he's a Bill and not a Dolphin, it's all good! Not buying what you're selling. He wouldn't be welcomed back with opens arms if he quit on the team with no communication last season. No sale! Edited November 1, 2016 by 26CornerBlitz
GG Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 @RapSheet WR Percy Harvin is signing with the #Bills for $1M over 8 games, including incentives. About $1.5M prorated in a 16-game season. What kind of math is that?
RyanC883 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Too much negativity. We are ridiculously thin at WR and need help ASAP. Harvin is an above average talent. Stop your mindless whining. This is a solid move, assuming he's in game day shape. exactly. We gave up literally NOTHING for this move. To get someone like Jeffery would have cost MUCH more, and he has had ONE good game this year (when his buddy Cutler was at QB last night).
26CornerBlitz Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) What kind of math is that? Journalism math? Edited November 1, 2016 by 26CornerBlitz

Incredible talent followed by chronic and bizarre injury concerns, each one worse by comparison. If the guy is healthy and can help, great. I'll be on the wait and see side until then. Totally agree. I never liked Harvin. He's been a d bag since high school. He couldn't get along with Pete Carroll or Leslie Frazier. And I think he quit on us last year and just back to steal some more money. But it will be fun cheering for him until he injuries his hamstring in a couple of weeks. So much hype for a player who has 4,000 yards in7 seasons.
Go Bills!!! Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 My client Percy Harvin has come out of retirement to sign with the Buffalo Bills for the remainder of the season! @gbo74 on Twitter Greg Barnett is his agent I guess. Schefter has on his twitter as well. April Fools!!!!
RyanC883 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Not buying what you're selling. He wouldn't be welcomed bay with opens arms if he quit on the team with no communication last season. No sale! exactly. If he "quit" on the team, I doubt TT would be thrilled to have him back.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Totally agree. I never liked Harvin. He's been a d bag since high school. He couldn't get along with Pete Carroll or Leslie Frazier.

C.Biscuit97 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Not buying what you're selling. He wouldn't be welcomed bay with opens arms if he quit on the team with no communication last season. No sale! A lot of double standards! It's a completely desperate move. Rex loves scumbags. And it blows my mind how people can bash Mario when this guy's history is a million times worse.
May Day 10 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Im not too excited. I dont hate the move, but not too hopeful harvin will change anything abd stay healthy
Mr. WEO Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 What kind of math is that? 1.5 million over 16 games with no incentives. 750K over 8 if he doesn't meet incentives, I'm guessing.
Dorkington Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 I guess I'm alone in keeping my expectations to him helping out while we're missing Sammy. If he lasts longer, awesome. I'm thinking he's a few game rental, and that's about it. Which I'm totally fine with.
C.Biscuit97 Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Your bias is showing from afar. The front office, coaches, and players obviously do not share your sentiment. I'm just not a fan of guys like this and I hate double standards people have. He's a scumbag but now he's our scumbag! And he was here for 5 games. How much does anyone know him? But hey, I hope he lights it up and makes me eat words. I'd love to be wrong.
Utah John Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 I don't see a down side. I'm sure the Bills worked Harvin out thoroughly and were satisfied he's healthy and in good enough shape to contribute. Maybe not much on MNF but then the bye so it could work out well. Someone said this is a desperate move by a team that is desperate, and the Bills are certainly desperate. But saying it's a desperate move makes it sound risky and foolish. There's little risk here and a substantial potential upside.

If nothing else he's as close a WR to Sammys skill set as the team has had in recent history.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 A lot of double standards! It's a completely desperate move. Rex loves scumbags. And it blows my mind how people can bash Mario when this guy's history is a million times worse. Mario was by far the highest payed player on the team and acted like a total FN quitting loser because he didn't get his way. Harvin was a low risk signing last season and will be again. Your false equivalency because you like one guy and completely dislike the other tells anyone all they need to know about your assessment here.
Go Bills!!! Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Holy crap, I can't believe Harvin is really coming back! $1 Million for 8 games. What a steal! (For him)
