Harvin to Bills/ Formerly the Harvin to Hawks & Jets (1 Viewer)

People thinking Percy will play in the regular season is in denial or never owned Harvin. He's not a fast healer and he doesn't like to play hurt. Don't kid yourselves.
Crow.
Go eat some. :thumbup:

Is "not a fast healer" a medical term or are you talking out your ###?
His name is Bass, not ###.
You two clowns can join the feast. :hophead:

Were you a Harvin owner last year? If not, just keep quiet please.
We need a :backpedaling: emoticon, or perhaps an :ole!:
"Well gosh darn , I just don't want to answer that there question"
You can join that feast too you clown.

Is Percy playing yet? Gosh darn it. He is one fast healing MOFO!!!
Do you even know what the typical recovery period is for the surgery he had? Is he currently ahead or behind schedule?
All I'm saying is some people think he'll play this season and make an impact in their fantasy lineup.

I'm saying he won't. AP is an example of a fast healer. Harvin is not a fast healer.

Harvin sat out for weeks with a high ankle sprain all season. This guy's not coming back with a hip surgery any time soon.
Sounds like you don't read the news, and/or your season ends in week 13. Those of us expecting to make the playoffs hope to face an owner as obtuse as you.
Last but not least kid, you can eat the biggest one.

You seriously came here, hunted down those posts, and quoted them all to claim some sort of internet victory? Wow, how pathetic must your life be to take that much time for something so trivial.

Everything that's wrong with the Shark Pool right here. Maybe the best part is that he wasn't even right. Harvin did play in the regular season, even if he doesn't play another down before the playoffs. I understand the spirit of the post, but technically it was incorrect.

He found a way to make ITS not the biggest tool in the box here.

I've never understood the whole keeping score mentality. What exactly are you proving here?

As far as Harvin goes, depending on when you had your draft you likely picked him very late or you picked him up off the WW at some point during the season. Either way, the cost to acquire him likely wasn't significant. So if it doesn't work out for him - and right now it strongly appears it won't - it's not like he was a first-round pick who busted. The whole point of late-round picks and Waiver Wire adds is to try and hit on something. If it doesn't work out, you move on. I would think for most teams still alive right now Harvin was a potential bonus, not someone anyone was significantly counting on. So if he doesn't play the rest of the regular season you still have the core team that has led you this far to rely on.

So how stupid is someone supposed to feel about that really?

 
Thinking of dropping him for Baldwin, honestly.
I would do that in a second. I grabbed Baldwin after picking up Harvin, possibly my first WR handcuff strategy ever.

What are you waiting for? I wouldn't hesitate.
Ok, fine, you ####ers, but if I don't win my league, I will come back and find these posts and make you eat your crow!

At this point you're not losing because you dropped Harvin.

The guy is a troll, plain and simple. It's not even worth arguing. This same exact scenario comes up next year, I'm picking him up in the exact same week and holding him. Potential WR1 upside in the fantasy playoffs for the cost of a WW pickup. I could get the argument against it in a shallow bench league if you're struggling, but otherwise you're an idiot for not doing it if you have the room.Next year I'm going to be looking closely at guys who start the season on IR but are eligible to return. Draft in the last round, move to IR, then you have an empty spot for the hot WW pickups after week 1. I ALWAYS draft someone late who turns out to be garbage. This year it was Christine Michael.

 
Yeah that's it I'm a troll. When I get attacked by bunch of clowns that are spreading false hopes, I will not hesitate to point out their "obtuse" references.

Eat a fat crow McGarnipple...

It is seen by some as the counterbalance to those that initially curb stomp on others' opinions. It happens every day. Someone puts a reasonable opinion/assertion/theory out there and someone else attempts to laugh them out of the thread. I'm not surprised they dig the thread up later to retaliate.

Live by the sword, die by the sword...

 
Carroll said yesterday that Harvin came into the VMAC feeling great and definitely has a chance to play Sunday.

I would not be dropping him.

See my post 1,012. At this point I think the Best Case scenario for Harvin is to be able to play him in two games. And there are no guarantees you'll get that out of him right now.

Do agree dropping him could definitely turn out to be a very bad move. That's one of the reasons why I'm :(

 
I'm holding onto him in my IR slot, so it's not costing me much to wait and see.

Honestly though - for everyone talking about his value come "fantasy playoffs" - unless he proves value before then (by week 12 & 13) would you really risk starting him in 14?

Personally, if he doesn't have a couple of solid weeks first, I can't justify the risk. Sure, if you're desperate at WR... but most playoff teams won't be the desperate ones.
Sorry for the self-bump, but I go back to this from a month ago.

I can't see how anyone but a just-squeaking-into-the-playoffs would risk rolling the dice with an unproven Harvin at this stage of the game.

I dropped him last week, fwiw.

 
If I have drop him to pick up somebody I can start this week, then I drop him.

Otherwise I still look at him as a week 16 investment.

If he has a good week 15, heck ya I start him week 16.

Who else is out there off the waiver wire at this point and how good of a week would they need to have to make me interested?

 
I just dropped him. If someone picks him up and actually has the balls to start him deserves to win the league if he goes off

Agree. Dropped him to clear space to have options where I could potentially get a few more points out of a position like kicker depending on matchup (i.e. picking up Henery or Bailey to have with Hartley, or Garrett Graham to swap out with Clay).

Nice avatar, btw

I drooped Harvin this week to pick up Christine Michael to keep from the still alive Lynch owner on the chance that Seattle clinches this week. If they do clinch home field, then I think Seattle approaches the remaining games like preseason. In which case, the "starters", Harvin included, would see some work but it will decline steadily until the playoffs. I don't envision a full shutdown, but enough that I wouldn't feel comfortable rolling with any Hawks this fantasy playoffs. So I view releasing more as a Trojan Horse to a potential playoff opponent.I also snagged Crabtree, who I feel, sees the exact opposite in workload as Harvin for the simple fact that the Niners need to win out.

I was trying to drop Harvin for Crabtree. I don't like Crabtree's schedule other than Week 16 but like you said the 49ers will be playing to win the rest of the way so he should be on the field plenty. I got outbid so I still have Harvin. Yay?

 
Rotoworld:

Percy Harvin (hip) remained out of Seahawks practice Thursday.
Barring a surprise Friday return, Harvin can be safely ruled out for Week 14. The question is whether he'll return before the postseason. If you're hurting for a roster spot, Harvin is a drop that's unlikely to come back to haunt you.

So basically the only chance you could even think of starting Harvin now would be in Week 16, which could be a meaningless game for the Seahawks if they've already clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC. So there is probably less than 5% chance that if Harvin even does play again in the regular season he'll play a full complement of snaps in a game (and that's probably a generous percentage). He almost certainly won't play this week and even if he returns next week I can't see how he'd play a full game given how he would have missed two games and only played once the entire season going in. So there's no way he could be started in fantasy with any semblance of confidence.

In a redraft league it's pointless to hold onto him now. Oh well. It was a worthy gamble but it didn't pan out.

I like to keep other fantasy defenses guessing.

Did Harvin practice yesterday? No i take it?

 
Seahawks WR Percy Harvin ruled out for Week 14 vs. 49ers

By John Breech | CBSSports.com

December 6, 2013 2:29 pm ET
For the second straight week, the Seattle Seahawks are going to be without Percy Harvin. Coach Pete Carroll said on Friday that Harvin won't be playing in Sunday's game against the 49ers. Harvin has only played in one of Seattle's three games since being activated off the physically unable to perform list on Nov. 11.

"Percy's not going to make this one, but we're hoping that maybe next week is his week and we'll see how it goes," Carroll told KIRO-FM in Seattle on Friday.

Harvin didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday and even before Carroll's announcement, it didn't look like he was going to take the field on Sunday against San Francisco.

Harvin's played in one game this season and that came in Week 11 against the Vikings when he caught one pass for 17 yards. After that game, Harvin experienced some soreness in his hip that didn't go away during Seattle's Week 12 bye. The lingering hip problem led Harvin to get a cortisone shot before the Seahawks hosted the Saints last Monday night, a game Harvin didn't play in.

The isn't the first time Harvin's hip -- which was surgically repaired in August -- has given him trouble. Harvin also had trouble with the hip when he first began practicing with the team in October. To fix the problem then, Harvin had his hip drained of excess fluid.

If Harvin's hip needs rest, the Seahawks can earn him some with a win over the 49ers. A win on Sunday over San Francisco would clinch the NFC West for Seattle and a first-round bye in the playoffs.

Good. I understand there are folks in here who were hoping for fantasy reasons but for just Seahawks fan reasons I want them to sit him until the playoffs.

I'll be much more comfortable after (if) we secure HFA throughout. Until then I want everyone that can help to help.
 
Just dropped Harvin for Crabtree. Just hoping to make it to the Superbowl in my league and like the match-up Crabtree has in week 16.

I missed picking up Harvin weeks ago, but I'm just fine with picking up Crabtree before last week's games. I hope to make it to week 16 to take advantage of that matchup.

 
Rotoworld:

Coach Pete Carroll explained Wednesday that Percy Harvin's hip injury has "fluctuated" and Harvin hasn't been able to get "over the hump."
"He has gone back and forth, where he’s gotten close and then it got aggravated a little bit," Carroll said. "Just hasn’t quite got over the hump where he’s really clear. He has a whole lot of new movement in that hip that he hasn’t had before and he’s trying to become accustomed to that." Harvin didn't practice Wednesday and won't play in Week 15. He also seems like a long shot for Week 16.
