		<description><![CDATA[This is great for the Hawks, opens up the offense considerably for Wilson and Bevel. Harvin hasn&#039;t had a migraine for 2 years, and this &#039;injury prone&#039; playmaker only missed 3 games over the previous 3.5 years... Far below the league average. Harvin was going to be the NFL Offensive Player of the year before getting hurt last year. In 8 games last year Harvin had 55% of the YAC, that the ENTIRE Seahawks team had ALL of last year. After listening to many insiders over the last few days it seems that Harvin has been lampooned by many with little knowledge of his situation. Urban Meyer claims he would take Harvin to do battle with him, and against anybody... No wonder after Harvin, Avril and Bennet, Hawks are Vegas favorites, and justifiably. Carroll and Schneider have proven that they are draft, and roster gurus... Beginning of a Dynasty in Seattle... Especially after listening to Kaepernick and his interviews recently. Wilson actually sounds like a QB, while Kaepernick sounds like an NBA player who took Underwater Basket-Weaving 101 to get through college... NOBODY has it better than the Hawks right now!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey skillz, your right that guys like Wallace and Harvin can take the top off a defense and open up the middle for other WR&#039;s or TE&#039;s, but you guys don&#039;t have anybody else the DB&#039;s need to worry about. We can double Percy. Rice is probably going to get cut now, but even if he&#039;s not he&#039;s very overrated. I don&#039;t think Percy is being that overpaid, but I think he&#039;s gone after his 2 guaranteed years. Then what do you have. No super bowls and your out a 1st &amp; 3rd rounder player. They should of packaged some picks and moved up in the draft to get Tavon Austin if that&#039;s the type of player they want and spent there $ on a OL for there best player Lynch.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Norcal if all it took was a speedy cb to catch a.quick wr then why is wallace getting paid 65M and then you have 1 d revis in the entire league that can shadow him?

Get off your high horse 49er fan. Its glaringly obvious.

But i truely would like to see them get a 49er 1 on 1 with a safety over the top to cover harvin, he only holds the most broken tackles record as a receiver.

And while your at it, while you double covering harvin, watch rice.blow right past your man for a sexy wilson deep bomb.

Yeah, im a hawk homer, but at least im beong realistic.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh come on. It&#039;s not like he got Mike Wallace money...

Anybody else notice there are 2x 2015s listed? $18.5 mil, now that IS steep.

It&#039;s more than a bit ridiculous to talk about &quot;$67 million&quot;, when was the last time a guy in his mid 20s played out the last year of his 6 year deal? Really, what we&#039;re talking about is 3ish years for $30something million dollars. That&#039;s the going rate for WR1s these days. 

This move also causes the whole &#039;Hawks offense to become fully realized: now Sidney Rice can be a non-field stretching possession receiver with a ginormous catch radius, and Golden Tate line up in the slot (or wherever he wants) and run away from LBs and safeties and run over CBs. Drop extra guys into coverage and Marshawn Lynch&#039;ll beat you up and take your lunch money. Harvin gets single-coverage for the first time since he learned the position.

I&#039;m a happy 12th Man today. The price was high, but playmakers aren&#039;t cheap.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fact is both teams came out pretty good in this deal.   It is rare you get a chance to add a player of Harvin&#039;s caliber and he instantly adds another dimension to an already dangerous offense.  Seattle was targeting a WR in the first round and Harvin is much better than anything they were going to get.  Plus, Seattle can afford to overpay Harvin now because of their cap situation (paying nothing for wilson, sherman etc.).  The Vikings on the other hand got rid of a player who was demanding out and were able to salvage a few high round picks.  It is funny to me that nobody compares this to the Mike Wallace situation, as Pittsburgh is watching their playmaker leave for nothing in return.  They added cap room flexibility to possibly target a FA wide out and also have the ability to fill a lot of needs via the draft.]]></description>

Guess you’ll do the same once Adrian Peterson is tired of doing everything by himself

		<description><![CDATA[Percy is a great talent, but this is a panic move to try and compete w/49ers. Championship teams aren&#039;t bought in free agency. There built through the draft and smart, FA signings. Niners have struggled to cover wr like Percy, victor Cruz kills the niners, but this will be addressed in the draft by adding a speedy nickel back. Which is funny if you think of it. Seahawks spend a fortune and all the niners have to do is draft a speedy corner and give safety help on Percy. Seahawks don&#039;t have any other real wr threats. Percy will be cut in two years after he collects his 25 million.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Its a big risk/ high reward for the seahawks. If they get him to play a FULL season, use him the way HE WANTS, and do not have any losing streaks in the foreseeable future (ie:adversity) then he might be worth $ 12 million a year!!! Make no mistake Percy is a great player but he is still just a slot receiver!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The amount that is guaranteed is much less that 67 and is laden with incentives.   Couldn&#039;t be better given his up-side and protecting for his down-side.  Much less than he was insisting he get from Vikings.  I bet they would have kept him for this money.  

This is going to work out just fine.........Of course because its football, you never know until you look from hindsight.  So for now I have my fingers crossed.

Go Hawks!]]></description>

He has never had the same injury twice, I remember rice when he was with the vikes was injury prone, he played all 16 for Seattle this year.

people need to understand that this is football, anybody can get injured, some are just unlucky...not saying I love how much it cost, but lets give it a year before we judge...why do fans of other teams have to troll...Iv never done that.]]></description>

It&#039;s almost as good as some of the other &#039;hawks fans calling Percy the best receiver in the league. 

I&#039;ve been to Washington. This delusion does not surprise me.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seahawks were close last year. Harvin will put them over the top. Defenses had their hands full without having to account for Harvin. Seems like an acceptable contract to me. Better than the Wallace contract. If the Seahawks hadn&#039;t given him this money, the patriots or niners would have and they are competition A and B for the Superbowl next year.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Are you kidding me?  Man Harvin must have really not wanted to be here, or the Vikes must not have wanted him, because 10 mil a year over 6 years (all in his prime since he&#039;ll only be 30 when this expires) is not bad for a player like Harvin.  And only 12 mil guaranteed is not much these days.

I&#039;m actually sort of pissed at this.  I realize this is 12 mil in &quot;new money&quot; or whatever but the bottom line is that the Vikes &quot;should&quot; have been able to pay Harvin 10.1 mil per year over the next 6 with only 12 of it guaranteed.  Hell in 4 years 10 mil for a starting caliber WR will be a steal.  

God damnit.  Now the Vikes are probably going to pay some chumbalone like Amendola or Jennings like 9 mil a year.]]></description>

Harvin is a total head case..I don&#039;t care if  Bevell coached him before(he still had a ton of issues in MN).  Now you give the guy that much money and he&#039;s not going to be hungry...By the way Seattle....how did that Sydney Rice contract work out?  He hasn&#039;t done anything since he signed his deal....now you&#039;ll have two guys hurt vs just  one.]]></description>

It is less money that what Mike Wallace commanded and Harvin is a better receiver. He is also far short of Fitz money...$16 mil a year.]]></description>
