Yep, I had a feeling that the Vikes weren't telling us everything. Seemed like the same old BS every week....."Percy might play, we are holding out hope that he can play."

I wouldnt have dropped kyle rudolph had we known this earlier.

Vikings just placed Harvin on injured reserve, his season is over. Just saw it on rotoworld.

yisman · 12-05-12, 07:39 PM

they were jerking around fantasy owners for a while on this

I kept getting alerts each week that he was downgraded.

This blows.

My season turned on the game he sprained his ankle. I was cruising along at 7-0, then BAM! 9-4.

Look into Jarius Wright.

Yep, that's how fantasy goes. Your season usually hinges on injuries. My team was injury riddled throughout the season, but my team is finally starting to get healthy when it matters most. It's too bad, because Harvin was shaping up to be a top 5 WR.

I was hoping for Harvin to be healthy for the playoffs. So much for that.

Harvin was a MVP candidate before he got injured. Lined up everywhere, and even got me return yardage points. Then him and Sproles go down around the same time, and just made my team hit a wall. Sproles hasn't returned kickoffs since he came back, just punts. He hasn't been the same since the injury. I hope it changes this week.

I had two WR's go on IR this week. Ryan Broyles (Had some very good PPR potential) and Percy Harvin.

I just picked up Jarius Wright. Let's see how he performs.

Didn't he play against GB last week? Why is he out for the year now?

Mikail · 12-06-12, 12:28 AM

injuries are part of the game. Always important to have a backup plan.

Nope. He hasn't played since Week 9, and he went out early that week.

Torn ligament in his ankle. He is going to have surgery.

Yes they are, but not many out there that could do what Harvin did. Especially the scrap heap on the FA list.

Ghenghis Kahn · 12-06-12, 12:42 AM

percy was the #1 receiver before he got injured, what back up plan can you have for that?

Cross · 12-06-12, 01:02 AM

He has probably played his last game as a Viking too, he wants out bad!

jetsjets1028 · 12-06-12, 01:07 AM

is gone for the season

I was cruising along in my league also until Harvin went down, then lost a couple games. Luckily I picked up TY Hilton and Josh Gordon since then, so feeling better about my WRs.
