I think people need to start realizing that Ted looks at everything emotionless. You simply can't make a decision because your sour at a guys injuries, past, or whatever.
He's already signed through next year and has already been paid the majority of his contract, I don't see why you would just simply waive him (which you technically can't do anyway) when you can put him on the IR and see how he recovers. I bet they give him a settlement and let him battle it our again next year.
You don't think that if a number 9 overall pick, at a position we need, had a season ending injury and the team he was on was fed up and cut him, we would want to bring him in next year and see what he can do? Especially after he showed promise and back was supposably holding up.
Only way we get rid of Harrell is if there is a better option, there may be, but not yet.
We are born naked, wet and hungry. Then things get worse.
