Yup, as a jets fan I'm glad they get to try him out for a year even if 7 million is way high for what is essentially a role player. I think this is more of a "see what geno can do with another decent weapon" since the seasons done anyway and there will be some rebuilding after its all said and done. Shame is rex is a great head coach who will probably be the teams scapegoat after a terrible season. I could've told you the jets would be 1-6 back in August when they failed to sign anyone to fill the gaping holes ij the defense. Rex will take some team's defense to the next level as a coordinator next season barring any miracle Epiphany by the jet's less than football savvy owner.

Essentially I think the seahawks win this trade in the long run despite investing a lot in a player who didn't do much. The jets won't do anything with him until they get a real QB and seattle is so good they can win without whatever minimal pruduction they got out of harvin.

I think its a low risk move with a high reward which is good. The only thing that would worry me would be that if Harvin couldn't fit in with the Super Bowl winning Seahawks then how is he going to fare on a team like the Jets that probably aren't going to be playing for much in a couple weeks? That offense certainly is challenged and he might mesh well with that Rex Ryan Jet attitude as well as becoming the number 1 guy he seems to want to be. I don't necessarily think Rex is gone depending on how the second half of the season goes because everyone had Rex fired before and then he finished strong and got extended. It could happen again.
