YoloinOhio Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 http://nysportsbiz.com/2015/04/11/meet-the-big-reason-percy-harvin-chose-the-bills/ In just over two months together in New York, Lal and Harvin built a great rapport as the coach relentlessly worked to fine-tune his newest pupils game. He also wasnt afraid to go against the grain, moving Percy outside instead of always sticking him in the slot like previous teams. That move paid immediate dividends as Harvin doubled his average yards per reception in eight games with the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbanach Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I couldn't believe it when he signed w Buffalo given the uncertainty at QB. Just goes to show, it's still all about who you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Did Harvin have a lot of options? This guy couldn't get along with Leslie Frazier (the darker Jauron) and Pete Carroll. I hope he works here because he's a great talent. But he has been a complete knucklehead and he's the sole reason he has bounced around the NFL.

He didn't do anything wrong per se in NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't do anything wrong per se in NY. It was half of a season. dude is a huge talent but he has major issues with coaches. There is a Bill Simmons theory that you can have on knucklehead and be fine. When you get another one for him to hang out with, that's trouble. When a guy can't get along with Carroll on a SB contender, there are major issues. I hope he finally grows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I think the Bills were the only team offering Harvin decent money. Solid roster, good chance to see a lot of snaps and get the money. It wasn't complicated why the Bills wanted to try and utilize his playmaking ability and why he wanted the money and a roster spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 This is why I do not miss St. Doug. I know Rex is in his honeymoon in B'lo but he has a chance to be very special. This feels like a new franchise. If Rexy starts a winning tradition he will be treated like a king in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feels like a new franchise. If Rexy starts a winning tradition he will be treated like a king in Buffalo. Of course, it the Bills struggle, folks will be running Rex out of town and telling him to shut his pie hole. You know what they say, 4th time's a charm. It'd be great. He is a great talent. I have my doubts but I'd love to see him become a major weapon for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that Harvin will be entirely a decoy, but defenses are going to need to pick their poison if they are both lined up out there capable of taking a bubble screen to the house with a quick twitch.
