Why does this kind of thing always happen to you?

Admittedly, I didn't see this portion of his contract structure. If they can part with his contract at any point without consequence/dead money that's understandable
Ah yes. I miss Childress. He openly bragged about that and how he outsmarted Belichick.
Good times.
Take away his longest catch of 33 yardsA little misleading since the Seahawks used Harvin in short passing situation. He is averaging 6.0 YPC this season (22 catches for 133 yards for the season). He is only passed to on high percentage passes. It skews his high catch rate.
I suppose if you're looking to infer that, you can. Since I'm not bragging about post count, but just pointing out that they are there, however, one would have to be deliberately looking for such an inference.
If you want to talk about patronizing, feel free to look at your own post.

Sure he does -- he can't tell time.Seattle thought he would be a crucial part of their team. They ended up winning the SB without him, for the most part, and Harvin has always been 2 things: extremely talented and a head case who misses a lot of time.
This puts them in position to use the money for Wilson, and probably helps team chemistry. For the Jets,
Harvin
Decker
Kerley
Cumberland
Amaro
Ivory
Johnson
means GeNO! has no excuses.
What difference does the position make? A head case is a head case whether he's on offends, defense, plays in the trenches or in a skill position. Wherever he plays, a head case is "risky".
Every team makes personnel mistakes -- the smart teams recognize them quickly.
His production is fine. His availability is a different issue.
Look at it this way: 22 catches on 26 targets
Seahawks basically gave Harvin away just to dump his salary.
"Percy Harvin" is basically just a name at this point. Not much production.
Supposedly could be as high as a 2d rounder.I know you're joking, but I really don't how this trade represents going 'all in'. The biggest cost here was a mid-round pick, which I fully expect Idzik will recoup by trading down. That's the Seahawks/Packers philosophy that Idzik comes from. The Jets have more than enough cap room to accommodate him, he fills a need, and he accelerates the timeline on which they can evaluate Geno, all without sacrificing any flexibility in the intermediate or long term.
