Percy Harvin on the Block - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Offsides · 02-10-2013

I think the Cowboys number 1 priority is to upgrade the OL and DL lines but I also think their receiver situation after Bryant is not too solid. Austin is alway hurt. Not that the Vikings would have interest in Austin, but I'd try to trade Austin and a draft pick for Harvin.

Trading Austin and a pick for harvin?

That is crazy talk.

I'd trade Austin for Harvin straight up, but wouldn't give up a pick as well. Harvin is better than Austin, IMO.

why? both are injury prone. harvin has an attitude issue. austin, when healthy can have dominating games. so why trade one for the other? makes no sense.

Trading one headache for another doesn't seem lke moving forward to me.

Harvin does have his problems staying on the field just like Austin but he is such an upgrade I'd do this in a second even throwing in a pic, I see no way this happens though

Right. The Vikings wouldn't do it.

considering what Jimmy did to the Vikings I bet there is a pretty much unwritten rule that all Viking GMs have which is

"NEVER TRADE WITH THE COWBOYS"

We has him in our 'box' on draft day along with guys like Desean Jackson, basically meaning they're undraftable because of character.

This is football not church guys.

Couldn't have gotten him anyway cause we traded our 1st that year to Detroit.

I think Harvin is a top 5 receiver when healthy but he would be a bad fit here with Garrett calling plays.

If we got Harvin, he'd be here a heckuva lot longer than Garrett will.

Doesn't make sense for either side. Harris is a great returner, Austin is a better receiver(and cheaper).

lostar2009 · 02-10-2013

come on Jerrah !!! Give up a 1st, 3rd, 7th, and next year 1st !!!

He's not even close to a top 5 receiver. There are so many really good receivers out there that aren't even top 5 before I even get to Harvin.

I would trade Austin and a 3rd to Minnesota for Harvin in a heartbeat, although I have concerns about adding yet another injury-prone starter (not that it would be much worse than Austin). Not sure that gets the deal done, though.

He's a special player.
