yep

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Friday that Gang Green has acquired wide receiver Percy Harvin from the Seahawks in exchange for a conditional mid-round draft pick, according to a source informed of the situation. FOX Sports.com's Jay Glazer first reported that the teams had agreed to the swap.
It's a stunning transaction for both squads.
Seattle spent much of the offseason tweaking its playbook to make the most of Harvin's unique gifts as a pass-catcher and weapon out of the backfield. His campaign has been underwhelming, though, with half of Harvin's 22 grabs coming behind the line of scrimmage. His six yards per haul marks the lowest average of any NFL wideout with at least five catches.
Still, Harvin brings a serious jolt of talent to New York's offense, draping the attack with a proven playmaker across from wide receiver Eric Decker. After the Seahawks swapped a first-rounder and two later-round picks to Minnesota before last season for the rights to the former Viking, it's surprising to see how little they got in return from New York.

Weird.
Guy had a breakout game against the Skins,only to see 3 TDs called back by flags.
Other than that though,he's been a no show.

Pete really wanted Percy. Missed out on him at USC and paid a lot to get him to Seattle. He must have done something because Seattle isn't exactly loaded at WR.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Seahawks had been shopping Percy Harvin for weeks.
Multiple reports suggest Harvin's "anger management issues" led to his trade to the Jets. For the Seahawks, moving on from his contract was the right decision. Harvin has no guaranteed money beyond this year and likely would have been released after the season regardless. It's still an admission of failure from Seattle after they gave up first- and seventh-round picks last year, and a 2014 third-rounder to acquire Harvin. The Seahawks will save $6.47 million in cap space by trading him, which should help towards extending Russell Wilson.

Harvin is also lazy and gets by on natural ability. He's been a terrible practice player all the way back to HS. I used to play cards with one of his hs coaches and he said he would almost never practice.

Maybe he wasn't one of Pete's RkGs

Lotta fun sleazy shit coming out now. Apparently Tate fucked someone in the front office that he shouldn't have and got forced out too.

These guys make Dez look like a model citizen.

If Percy was riding Wilson hard, I am excited to see how much he enjoys good ole Geno. Jets must be dumb and desperate.
