MisChief-Maker 135 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Just been released by the Steelers. Would a short-term deal ahead of the playoffs hurt us? Him and Houston would be pretty handy I'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WichitaZRide 321 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 All day every day! Let him rest this and next week...and if we play the Steelers...you know he’s gonna be lit! I don’t care how old he is...with only two games and playoffs he will be cheap and an upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend of AC 269 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I say why the hell not? He couldn’t be any worse than Tamba Hali as a situational pass rusher, could he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not add another overpaid rotational pass rusher that is long in the tooth and short on snaps? On second thought, No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WichitaZRide 321 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Yes, of course. Why not add another overpaid rotational pass rusher that is long in the tooth and short on snaps? On second thought, No. Overpaid? His total salary this year is 2 million, 1.2 of which would be base...waiver claim would not take effect this week, so KC would be on the hook for 75k for on game plus playoffs...and yes, he’s old and had a low snap count, but given what the Steelers have going on right now can you blame them? 75k seems like a pretty nice insurance policy to keep Hali fresh or to have someone step in if Hali can’t go...

Hali's here to sit on the bench until the Chiefs win a ring. He's hardly doing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPPT1974 21 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Really thank you but no thank you on James Harrison! Wore out his welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggjliv4 1,292 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I'd roll the dice on him. Even at a few plays a game, he may be angry enough to get us a sack a game. Money well spent, not like any olb not name Houston has done jack for us. Low risk, high reward cheap deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Steelers defense just gave up 38 points at home to the Ravens and he contributed nothing. Hard to believe he could help but why not at least look into it at this point with Ford out and Tamba questionable every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we got 1 sack out of him he’d have contributed more than Tamba. Fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 No brainer IMO. Bring him in and let him get up to speed next week with a half game of work and let him do what he does best in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like an overreaction...they only allowed 9 points against the ravens the other time they played each other. They have held their opponent under 20 all but 5 games this season. Steelers are 3rd in the league in sacks. Defense seems to be doing just fine without him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrison hasn’t played in most of those games. That’s my point as they were worse with him in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,114 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 We do have the advantage of signing him and playing him against the Broncos. I imagine he is probably washed up but we don't need a season or even half a season. Just a few games and it wouldn't hurt picking his brain about a nemesis of ours.

TomahawkChop 255 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Frankly, I'd like to see the Chiefs sign him. In small doses I think he still has enough gas in the tank to make some splash plays in a handful of games. It's not that he was bad in Pitt - I don't think - but that Watt turned out to be a superstar. Harrison is superior to any rush linebacker the Chiefs have not named Houston. I'd love to see him in Chiefs red for the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCJohnKC 33 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 If we didn't submit a Waiver for him at an extremely minimal cap hit for the rest of this season, I can't see how we would sign him to a deal at greater cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
