    I did some extra research about Harvin and apparently I misheard some things about his character; I thought the problems I heard that he had with teammates and coaches were while he was at UF, but rather they were while he was at HS in Virginia. Apparently none of those concerns have popped up since he's been at Florida. Still, the fact that he comes from the same area as Michael Vick, LT, and DeAngelo Hall scares me a bit, as those are all talented but troubled athletes. That may be a bit unfair to him though, as he's not any of those three guys.

    I'm still not on the hype train for him, but I'm not as opposed as I once was to drafting him. I'm still wary of his injury history and his ability to adjust to a pro offense. At the very least, I don't think he could be a major part of an NFL offense for a few years.

    I'd take Percy Harvin in a heartbeat.

    He is a more explosive, more versatile Santana Moss.

    Don't see how he doesn't help the Jets immediately.
