Jets to release ILB David Harris

[cupofjoe1962]

watching NFL live & Adam Schefter just reported that the Jets are going to release David Harris.

He has been a productive linebacker & may be worth a look.

He is 33 years old, but he had 95 tackles last year & 32 assisted tackles.

In 2015 he had 108 tackles, 41 assisted tackles & 4.5 sacks

Worth the roster spot just to enjoy Jets' fans pain when he finally gets to put a ring on his finger.

 

[Kontradiction]

I'd be surprised if the Pats didn't bring him in for a look. I still think he has something left. He was a massive pain in the ass to play against from 2009-2010.

 

[convertedpatsfan]

Yes.

 

[AtomicDawg]

It's a done deal I think. Read this. I mean for BB this is like a novel.

 

[Koma]

Did they have Leonard Williams carry Harris out of the building?

 

[varjao]

Veteran player, not making top money, player well against us and it's a position of need. Fill all the checkboxes.

Sign the beast.

 

[Clonamery]

Good player when healthy. Played hurt at times when not his legs.

JETE do not want to compete.

 

[Deus Irae]

They tried to get him to take a pay cut, and he wouldn't accept their terms.

Todd Bowles: Jets tried to negotiate pay cut before releasing David Harris

New England has the cap space, but will they spend the money (I can see good reasons for going either way on this)?

 

[Joker]

a look? yes...due diligence

I'm just too biased against all things Rat to feel good about this however

 

[patsinthesnow]

Been a 90%+ snap LB his whole career. Would probably be effective in a 50-60% role.

Let's pull another Bryan Cox.

Did the Jets cut Harris before or after he stopped laughing at them?

That INT he had vs. us in the playoffs completely shifted the momentum.

Roberts is better at this point.

Biggest kick in the nuts ever

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

I thought he was their best LB. I say lure him with custom made dougnuts!

But he would be great "Hightower Insurance" in case Dont'a misses a game or two.

 

[Marqui]

I would take him. Certainly better than terrible Shea McCleilin.

 

[Froob]

It's a done deal I think. Read this. I mean for BB this is like a novel.

It'd be amazing to have Bill on TV after he retires (if he does that is, he may just die in the film room).

 

[Ivan]

Definitely worth looking at.
