What do the huddlers think about this idea? Harvin is an explosive threat exactly like what we are looking for. His prior problems with seattle I believe are a little overblown I

Mean the guy destroyed on special teams and is a constant threat with the ball in his hands. If the jets decide to release him barring a ridiculous price coming with him i think he actually is a great fit for us, similar to ted ginn but more of an upgrade. I can just see the option being ran with him and cam, could be deadly. So what say you huddlers, yay or nay?

I wonder who wants to come here for cheap. Why would they do that?

I dont want anything to do with him but his price will be affected by being traded away, followed by being traded away again for a loss, followed by being cut (what it would require for him to be available). All the while being a dissapointment on the field and having a reputation for being a pain in the ass.

As I stated in the other thread he's probably hoping for a deal similar to whatever Cobb gets. And who knows, he could pan out to be worth it. Wed probably at least have to give him what AZ paid for Ginn last year. While he is an intriguing player with some perceivable upside, is he worth the risk? He maybe one of those players that ends up "watching the market" waiting for a desperate team to miss on other targets then settle for him in order to get what he wants. In that case I'm on the side of hoping its not us who take the high risk high reward approach. After getting burned by Hardy we can't afford to waste any more money.

Harvin is an electric player at times, but he is also a diva that wants too much money. He can be a match-up nightmare, but doesn't seem like a team guy, inasmuch as doing what it takes happily on the field---including taking a backseat when the coaches deem necessary. The Jets probably aren't going to want to pay him $10 mil per year, that's why there is the expectation that he will be cut.  I don't see him wanting to take the $7 mil (max) that we would probably offer him, so Harvin is not in the cards.

    • The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.
    • These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.
    • Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
