Al Harris signed
55 replies
padre31luxury_boxOPFree agent cornerback Al Harris has signed a one-year deal with the Miami Dolphins, Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post reports. (Harris' agent, Jack Bechta, is one of the insiders at the National Football Post)
Financial terms were not disclosed.
Harris was released by the Green Bay Packers on Monday after spending the first nine weeks of the 2010 regular season on the physically unable to perform list. Harris had major reconstructive knee surgery last December.
A sixth-round pick out of Texas A&M-Kingsville by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1997, Harris has 21 career interceptions and 4 quarterback sacks during a 12-year career with the Philadelphia Eagles (1998-2002) and Packers (2003-09), where he earned two trips to the Pro Bowl following the 2007 and 2008 seasons.
Wilson adds that the Dolphins added linebacker Erik Bakhtiari to the practice squad, releasing linebacker Chris McCoy.
Wow, his knee was shredded, hope he can play
SICKforum_veteranthis would be exciting if it were 2008...but lets see what he can do, him and clemmons can swap "DRED" stories

We are the league leaders in Dreds, pound for pound, no team has more hair sticking out the back of helmets than the Dolphins.
Notice they added a DE Bakthiari as well.
As for Harris, we need someone to convert those interception chances, cripes what 7 dropped in two weeks?

We may not be able to tell our secondary apart pretty soon.

Don't laugh but I look for the Dreds when Tony McDaniel is on the Dline, that is the only way I can tell he is playing..:D

Exactly what I was thinking. Even if he can't run/cut like he used to he can coach up the younger DB's. He is (was?) a very good DB when he was healthy.
We'll see. I'm not going to get excited. I also hope our medical staff looke dhim over better than they did Brees and Culpepper. :pity:

gilv13forum_veteranwould be a good signing if the dude wasn't hurt
ckparrotheadmoderatorThey worked him out at 7am this morning and obviously felt like he was healthy enough to play.
I wonder how it's going to affect the secondary. I think Harris has a lot of experience in the slot although Woodson moved into the slot more in Green Bay recently. I would think Harris is here to compete against Benny Sapp, who may have been the responsible party that came off the field for the punt and wasn't supposed to.

CrunchTimeretired_adminYes.I agree .He will compete with Sapp who has been underwhelming.
Harris has a nose for the ball,he is a hard hitter and his experience will help him fit in .Good pickup IMO.
Paul 13moderatorMaybe he can show the rest of the DB's how to catch an INT!

Meh, SS is in the Udanis Haslem hairdue area IMO. Bess as well.

Yup, same here.
That and I look for the guy who is 1 helmet higher than the rest.

Missed Bess, wasn't sure if Smith or Soliai counted.
I like this signing, someone is messing up in the secondary and they should have pressure to perform put on them, I think one of the thing missing from the Sparanophins is the idea that ANYONE can be benched for non performance.

Soliai and Smith don't have dreads.
Bess does though, and so does Carroll I believe.

jason8erluxury_boxIf I remember correctly, Harris can be a pretty brutal player. If that's the case, then I more than welcome this move.

i would rather him show the defense how to tackle first.
HardKoreXXXNew MemberAl Harris lives in Coral Springs. Hopefully he sticks, although I think this is just due diligence.
