The timing is bizarre. We've had the cap space all along. Why wait until a week into camp? Either way his experience and vet presence are a good add for this team Edit: is Harrison getting pinched for PEDs (speculating)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the reports on him weren't good and his game was deteriorating For what its worth,, PFF had him as their 16th ranked C. Harrison was 30th and Long 37th. He is not the All Pro that he once was, but he is an upgrade. And we did not have to give up anything (other than $$) to get him. 7 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I think it does impact future cap since unused cap space from this year is rolled forward. $8MM incremental spend this year means that much less in carryover cap space. Still a good use of resource in my view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Schroy Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 This is a big time move. I say that because the amount of money is huge, but JD and Gase must feel very good about this guy. Improves the OL with depth and experience right away. Ya gotta feel good about where this team is headed, on the field and off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played last year, but was in constant pain, and that's why he retired. Guys 34. Wondering why he's coming back, and what he's got left. Maybe after his drug test he will just smoke masses amounts of Marijuana for the pain and make it through the season like 75% of the league does now that pain killers are more closely watched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
