WonderfulMonds Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Apparently he's on the way out of Minnesota and much has been written about him coming to Cincinnati around the web.Apparently he could be had for a 2nd round pick, and we have one to spare. Granted we would have to pay him, I believe he's in his last year and he's holding out for a new contract.He's probably worth paying though, and if players like Johnson and Maualuga aren't resigned there should be money to spend. The offense needs help now and Harvin is a hell of a game changer and can line up any number of places.Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 The idea came up briefly in the free agents thread. Given their success (none) with free agent wide receivers lately, I would pass. But I wouldn't be upset if they did go that route. I think it's unlikely, however. Tough to see them paying for Harvin when they are going to have to shell out major cash for AJ soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 I think he'd be a very good fit for us in terms of his skill set, but his injuries scare me off.Pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 His contract is what makes this a no for me.I simply think they are going to need to shell out more than they are already capable of with who's coming due.This year's group to resign pales in comparison to next years contracts to be handed out.Would I complain ?? No, but only if if it doesn't cause us to lose someone else, especially on the defensive side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 No, Percy Harvin is a malcontented diva, we just got rid of ours why would we want to disrupt the chemistry of our locker room with some like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishbengal Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Would Harvin fill a position of need? - yes.Would we object to a productive and experienced NFL player added to the roster ? - no.Do we have a spare 2nd round pick we could utilise ? - yes.Can the wage structure be incorporated? - yes, if the coaches and front ofice want it to happen it could happen.Will it happen? - no, the Bengals and Free Agents just don't dance at the same disco generally.

ArmyBengal Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Well, reports now have Harvin thinking he's going to get a Megatron / Fitzgerald type of contract.We can officially end this conversation I believe. As if we didn't already know the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COB Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Maybe we'll get 8 Pound back from the Vikings. He's already been our number 2, knows the offense (a little), and would come cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
