I believe that a lot of anti-Harrell bias is repackaged anti-Thompson bias, and insofar as that is true, I oppose it.
However, my anti-Harrell bias has nothing to do with that. As I have said many times, I want rugged, hardworking players who are available and will contribute. All the talent, flash, and glitz are worthless if they sit on the sidelines. If Harrell is doomed to injury, and his presence on our roster is preventing another journeyman lineman from contributing to our team on a weekly basis, then I want him cut. If he will contribute this year, then I welcome him on the roster until a better player comes around.
But I've had the nagging feeling for the past few years that the front office of this team is often so focused on rescuing their projects that they fail to keep an eye out for talent. I know that's an unjust thing for me to say, but I find it extremely hard to believe that there's no one out there who could contribute more than Harrell, Jackson, or Bigby.
