When you think “biggest QB busts”, Ryan Leaf tops your list, followed by most of the 1999 Draft Class, then Joey Harrington. Well, Joey is trying to ressurect his career in Miami, where he’ll be a backup to Daunte Culpepper and could start opening day if Daunte hasn’t recovered from his knee injury. Sorry, Fins fans, neither option A nor option B strikes fear into the hearts of the your divisional foes.
Harrington has already worked out a contract with the Dolphins and since he is due a $4M bonus on June 15th, it looks like he’ll be headed to Miami. Suprise, surprise, Matt Millen, the NFL’s answer to Isiah Thomas, is working from a position of weakness so expect the Lions to get nothing out of ths deal. (ESPN is reporting a 6th round pick in 2007. So like we said, nothing.)
There’s a firesale going on at JoeyHarrington3.com so get your worthless Harrington Lions gear now!
