According to recent reports, Percy Harvin wants money
close to what Calvin Johnson gets. That would be over $16 million a season. Now
Harvin who thinks he’s a “special” player is being a tad bit unrealistic here. The
Vikings won’t pay him that. Period. Neither will any other team in the NFL because
Percy Harvin just isn't worth that much.
Yes, he is a very “special” player, but not the Calvin
Johnson kind of special. Sorry Percy.
Now that I've said that, we really need Percy Harvin to
stay. He’s a key player to the Vikings going into next season. Hopefully, he
can get his head back on straight and not demand such an outrageous salary.
But if Percy Harvin does continue to be unmanageable, I wouldn't be devastated to see him go. The draft is coming up, and the Vikings could go after other players in free agency.
