Jets to release veteran LB David Harris

Yea. Please.

Need that vet presence imho

my views on released players at this time of the year is, while they can be brought in as backups to solidify rosters, for the most part, they aren't going to start for you and were released for a good reason such as diminishing skills.

have no clue about this guy but with the thing with fairley I think bringing in "some" help should be considered, not expecting the roster we have to be filled with next man up caliber talent

We can see something similar to what Carolina had a couple years ago adding veterans to fill out the talented youth. (Peanut, Finnegan, Allen)

I'm all for adding veterans on their last breath. Window is closing.

you need to bring more than this to the table to crack breauxmeaux's top 10.

Ummm. No.

What is "No".

Just for reference, current LB's on the roster:

50 Anthony, Stephone LB 6-3 245 24 2 Clemson
47 Anzalone, Alex LB 6-3 240 R Florida
99 Bighill, Adam LB 5-10 230 28 1 Central Washington
59 Ellerbe, Dannell LB 6-1 245 31 8 Georgia
42 Feeney, Travis LB 6-4 226 24 R Washington
44 Kikaha, Hau'oli LB 6-3 246 24 2 Washington
53 Klein, A.J. LB 6-1 240 25 5 Iowa State
52 Robertson, Craig LB 6-1 234 29 5 North Texas
54 Stupar, Nathan LB 6-2 240 29 4 Penn State
45 Tautu, Sae LB 6-3 245 R Brigham Young
51 Te'o, Manti LB 6-1 241 26 5 Notre Dame

Less than we have now Just thought it was important to point out.

On the surface he looks good. It certainly is early enough that I think you could jettison another LB if need be for roster management. Particularly if a clear upgrade at a reasonable contract can be had.

The larger question is his age/performance. I don't think many Saints LBs were in his #35 PFF range. His 80% still might be better than some we have. BUT we know when players hit the wall, the decline can be staggering. A good team player so ya gotta wonder why the Jets axed him.

I would call him, why not.

Side note, the jets are gonna be god awful this year, glad we play them. I think we sweep the AFC East and yes, that includes beating the Pats at home week 2.
