If we are talking about bringing him in to just be a returner, I would much rather use that roster spot on a guy like Abbrederis or Janis who I believe are going to be capable of being the Packers returners for the next few seasons.

As a WR, I just don't see the use in signing him with Jordy, Cobb and Adams lining up and the battle between Abbrederis, Janis, Boykin (maybe) and White for the #4 and 5 spots.

The guy is nothing but a headache.. why would you want to introduce that issue to Green Bay?

I'd bring him for a 1 year deal to give him his chance for redemption & I would like to see him run those stupid toss plays that they use to run in Seattle with him.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

I feel the Seahawks comments are missing something important here. Athletes want to be coached. The expression, give an inch, take a mile comes to mind here. The Packers run a tight ship and that will bode well for someone like Percy Harvin. You keep him on a short leash (for lack of better words) and he won't be able to bite as many people. If he pushes the cusp, you cut the cord.

The Packers are operated much more like the Patriots than the Seahawks. The Seahawks most likely gave Harvin a lot of rope to hang himself and he did just that. So, give the guy less rope.

Unless the small amount or rope we'd grant him comes with a lobotomy, then KEEP HIM AS FAR FROM GB AS POSSIBLE!

They are not the Seahawks. They are not the Vikings. They are the Green Bay Packers.

Look at his contract and consider how dysfunctional the Jets are and they have a new coaching staff with no Aaron Rodgers.

If the Packers could land Harvin on a one year prove it deal, it would be in both best interests.

That said, I don't care how dysfunctional other organizations were. He's played for bigger contracts before and since then got kicked off a SB champ and admittedly a mess of an organization (although with a very player-friendly coach). We haven't discussed his injury/migraine history either throughout this thread. When has he consistently demonstrated that he can be a healthy, responsible, mature addition to a franchise? We expect that to change now?

Which of the following provides the least potential to our Packer offense? Jordy, Cobb, Adams, or Harvin?

If you bring Harvin in and expect him to get some reps on Offense, you are taking reps away from our 2 stars and the developing potential star. Not to mention Abbrederis and Janis.

I look at adding Harvin like adding Kaepernick. He would be a great talent to have for about 2 or 3 plays a game. But if you put him in the lineup, you are taking out the reigning MVP. That doesn't make sense, now does it? No matter what potential he brings for those 2 or 3 plays.

Then when you add in Harvin is an absolute destroyer in the lockerroom, just say no.

Charles Woodson had played for one team. Koren, 2. Koren never had the potential that Harvin has. It's not the same.

You guys aren't even taking your minds to the pressure having Harvin on the same field with Jordy, Cobb, and Adams would add to a defensive coordinator. Most teams don't have two good corners yet alone four.

Harvin and Cobb would be matchup nightmares, yet alone running the ball out of a four receiver set. We have the locker room and coaches to handle his eccentricities, whatever those are.

I don't think Ted will open the checkbook this week again.

Let's. See if anyone goes after Harvin this week.

The longer he stays unemployed the lower his cost will be.

With Boykin leaving, there may be room for another WR on the team.

When healthy there aren't many better then, Harvin

beast (9h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (9h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (19h) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (19h) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (21h) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22h) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (23h) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (23h) : Thank you

wpr (23h) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (23h) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (23h) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (23h) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooo 8 point game with 4 minutes to go!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21-Jan) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : what's so funny?
