The Facts:
Following up on the
ongoing story. ... Harvin reportedly wants out of Minnesota. He also reportedly wants to be paid like Lions receiver Calvin Johnson. But Harvin is overlooking one important reality. He’ll have to find a team that wants him, and a team that will pay him what he wants. As one NFL front-office source explains it, Harvin and his agent forget that a large portion of the league had him off of their draft boards in 2009, due to his reputation for being a pain in the posterior.

This reminder comes from PFT's Mike Florio, who went on to point out if there’s no team who will both trade for him and pay him, Harvin will continue to be the property of the Vikings. And, Florio added, the manner in which Harvin handles himself during the final year of his contract will go a long way toward shaping the extent to which other teams will, or won’t, be interested in him once he hits the open market. And if he decides to hold out, the Vikings can fine him hundreds of thousands of dollars and, if he doesn’t show up by Week 10, retain his rights through 2014.
