Remember all those no-show games like Pittsburgh? David Harris was the leader of the defense for every single one. The Curtis Martin of linebackers is finally gone. Good riddance. SAR I Puhleeze. When David Harris does anything akin to unbreaking Toni Braxton's heart let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, now I'm hearing there WERE negotiations, so I guess this didn't come completely out of nowhere for Harris? Still shouldn't have put TB in that spot though.

I get it. We all cope differently. Actually I bash the Jets because they're a mortal embarrassment. I cope by watching all kinds of weird porn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4jets Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 2 hours ago, 56mehl56 said: Jets released ILB David Harris. The move wipes Harris' entire $6.5 million salary off the books. It comes five days after the Jets reacquired ILB Demario Davis from the Browns. Now 33, Harris has lost a step, but hasn't yet gone off the cliff. A 10-year veteran, Harris had been a starter for the Jets since his rookie year in 2007, making him the longest-tenured member of Gang Green. The Jets are gutting the AFC's worst roster. Related: Jets Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter That's an understatement (overstatement?). Jets are gutting the NFL's worst roster. Thanks Macc.

Now for Harris he didn't want a paycut... ok, peace out. I am also ok with this... don't overspend and maybe we could have a winning team again in a couple years.

The anger in this thread is not about this move, but it's about the team sucking. Because if this exact move was made by Bellichick, you would praise it. But since the Jets upset you, you will bash whatever move they make. Thanks! nobody is bashing the decision. They are bashing the way it was handled. Just like with Mangold. Same thing. It was also classless of Mac to leave Bowles holding the bag in front of the press by himself. And I don't even like Bowles, but that was wrong too.

Tony MaC Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Barring Hansen and Stewart blowing him away between now and September I don't think the last well paid vet Decker has anything to worry about. (this year anyway) He's far and a way the best route runner in an offense with a lot of green receivers and young QB's that could use a man with his talents anchoring things. He's needed if or until those WR's prove up to snuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, just get rid of the older players... that cost higher then they are worth... Decker is an awesome WR... but he is not a #1, he proved that two years ago if you forgot and that's why we needed #15... But he won't get cut... Decker is worth too much on the trade market like Richardson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brought Harris into the office, say it face to face and thank him, deal with media later, don't leave your HC having to deal with something minutes away from a press conference... Mac's call will ultimately depend on if Davis is a sufficient MIKE or not, but the implementation of this plan left something to be desired.

nicg4360 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Davis replacing Harris.. interesting. We all know Harris was 10 times the player Davis was. Is this just an indication that even if Maccown outplays Hack that Hack will start? Seems that it's played out for these guys. Just an interesting outlook that's all.
