56mehl56 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 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.

Jack Straw Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I have no problem with releasing David Harris, but this should have happened three months ago. It's more evidence that this organization has zero plan for the road ahead. How someone as sh*tty as DeMario Davis makes David Harris suddenly expendable is beyond me. If you wanted a "leader" in the linebacking corps so badly, they would have been better off signing Anthony Schlegel back onto the roster for nothing. Also, it wasn't a veteran linebacker that stopped Darron Lee from hitting a woman last week, it was a 21 year old defensive tackle, so this "veteran leadership" bullsh*t is just that.

So now they were Mangini's while '13 & '14's were Idzik...I get it..Not going to go down that road again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
win4ever Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I wish they handled it with a bit more care, but I have no problems whatsoever with the actual release. He was very much a liability in coverage, and this defense needs to get faster. He's one of our best players in the past decade, but there is no point in having him on the team, blocking younger guys in a rebuilding year.

PCP63 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 The should've done it earlier, but Harris was old and slow. One of my favorite Jets, but we don't need him on a rebuilding team. Give the young guys some playing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnitedWhofans Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Honestly, NFL teams treat their players badly in general. So I'm not going to go nuts over how they did it. But football-wise it's a solid move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcat Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 3 minutes ago, Rangers9 said: Love to see him re-signed as a run stopper and part time player. If he wants to still play (but for less money) there should be interest in him. But you'd think the same for Mangold and he hasn't been signed. Maybe both guys will wait until most of training camp is over to give Thor bodies a rest and see if the market opens up. I'd like to see both of them back in green. When training camp injuries and pre season injuries start piling up around the league, Mangold and Harris will be employed. I just wish the jets knew how to do these things with a little class. For Mangold to be informed while enjoying time with his children at Disney was wrong. And for Harris to learn this thru the Jets' fuccked up media reporters, rather than directly from the coach and GM themselves is disrespectful and patently wrong. Jets = No class organization.

Gas2No99 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 that's some COLD-BLOODED REALITY right there. Probably wanted to see what was left in the tank through OTAs, realized it wasn't worth the price tag, and are letting him latch on a team with PLENTY of time before TC. Thank you David "#52 HitMan" Harris. You deserve a better send off then this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, but don't be surprised when Darron Lee/Lorenzo Mauldin are parked on the bench next year and replaced by whatever slug veteran linebackers we have on the roster (DeMario Davis, Bruce Carter, etc). Bowles will play whoever is oldest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Surprised this happened now, unless Harris has lost more speed during OTA's and they didn't want another Revis situation on their hands.
