3rdand12 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Percy is washed. Can't believe this thread keeps going. Have zero interest in retaining him. Let's get a real #2 who can help this team. I agree with the bolded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I think you meant to say that can't make decisions using foresight. Hindsight sure, and as you said, he's averaged just 7 games a year the past 4 years. Not worth it. No, I meant hindsight. You can't see the way the whole thing plays out and then make your decision based on that. You have to use foresight to anticipate what will be best.

You have to use foresight to anticipate what will be best. That's foresight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 How about a fluke for a change: Harvin comes back, stays healthy, and everyone finally sees how really good and effective he can be over the course of a full season. One can only hope. Bring him back with a heavily incentived contract and pray. Sammy and Percy for an entire season would be GOLD. Perhaps I"m delusional, but what the hell.

He was gold for one year w farve and the Vikings. The numbers on gold status don't look too promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayman Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Give him 350K per game where he takes at least 20 snaps. Give him 150K per game where he doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Give him 350K per game where he takes at least 20 snaps. Give him 150K per game where he doesn't.i am pretty sure Miami gave Jordan Cameron a contract like that - he gets paid only for any game he played and not for those he didn't play or something - because of his injury history Edited January 24, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be shocked to see something like that, here or elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 That play that Ted Ginn just made is why I am advocating for Harvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Ted Ginn is a good comparison. Guy with a lot of speed but essentially a gadget guy and go route runner with the added bonus of being a great returner. His contract is one Id be comfortable with for Harvin. 2 yrs $4.2m total.

Agree, that play where he changed fields twice is exactly what I am advocating for. There are only a handful of guys that can make that play and Percy is one.

The question is what are we willing to pay for that in a year where we are trying to sign Glenn, Cog.....and will lose Mario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddogblitz Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Ted Ginn is a good comparison. Guy with a lot of speed but essentially a gadget guy and go route runner with the added bonus of being a great returner. Difference is its more than 5 games in and Ginn is still playing. If Harvin could do that then I'd be in favor of keeping him at his current salary. But he can't, so time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
