Would you bring back Walt Harris for one more season?

PrintWalt Harris wants back for another year, as his agent has said in a great agent sales pitch, "He's the exception to the rule as far as defying the laws of aging." Danny will have another statistical review up shortly, so in the meantime, should the 49ers re-sign Walt Harris? It's a quick yes/no poll. I'm not factoring salary into this because I'm sure it would be cheap. He'd be a good veteran presence, but can the 49ers afford the roster spot?

re-signing him
The upside is that you can always cut him loose at some point if he’s not recovering fast enough.
That.......
and that if we were to pick up a young corner in the draft, Harris might make a nice mentor to whoever it is. I mean from what Ive read Harris has always been a pretty good guy, and he has to know quite a bit considering he’s lasted in the league until he is 36. Just some food for thought…

Both Barrows and Maiocco seem to think
that Bly won’t be with us next year. If that’s true then we should resign Harris for a one year deal
Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will probably get picked in the first round.
He came in as an emergency replacement for Harris when Harris tore his ACL
and the thinking is that he doesn’t have the size that they want.
Personally i think they’ll retain him at about the same price he had last year
Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will probably get picked in the first round.
So sick of that.
Bly was either our best or second best CB last year and the team doesn’t like him because they don’t like his size. I hate it, it’s really starting to make me dislike McCloughan.
He came back in the same suit that he was buried in...Similar to the one his grandfather was married in.
This is according to Barrows and Maiocco
personally I think they’re wrong about the size issue.
Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will probably get picked in the first round.
I mention the size issue a lot . . . doesn’t mean I agree with it.
Actually I don’t think Bly wants to come back and was always fishing for a starting job, which he won’t get here. The size issue seems to be a bit of deflection to the fact that Bly isn’t too hip on coming back.
can i cut iinn
im would bring harris back he’s a solid num 2 CB when healthy and actually he was always a playmaker while clements was struggling, if he’s healthy and can run good i think he could out right win that 2 CB spot in pre-season if he can’t sit him down
Thanks for the clarification..
I would like to see Bly back this year, however I would have some concern about durability for him as well as Harris.
ya im for walt
if we resign him almost like a safety net in case tarell brown doesnt step up …. we got rid of hudson so i dont see how this could hurt us
We didn't get rid of Hudson, did we?
We’re just going to let him test the free agent market, right?

Maybe as a camp body
I don’t want this guy on the roster anymore.
He’s not even that good on special teams.
What we've got here is a failure to communicate.

He's always on the bubble
and is ok for dime packages. I bet he at least makes the practice squad if nothng else
Yes Drew K, Tim Tebow will probably get picked in the first round.
so it really sounds like they might
on 2 walt because he’s one of my favorite DB hes underated 2 me honestly doesn’t get enough dew i felt like if him and clements and shante all stayed healthy the whole year with ‘’ our defense ’’ we would of went 2 the playoffs no doubt if they all stayed healthy.
I thought last year was it for him, but
Sign him. We can likely get him at relatively low cost and use him primarily in dime and/or nickel situations. He shouldn’t be ruled out with an average of five INT’s in the three seasons he’s played for us.
No real reason
not to sign him to a non-guaranteed incentives contract, don’t think he’d get anything else from any other team, even if the FA market is bare.
I wuld rather have bly than Harris
bly makes more plays and was easily our best corner performace wise.
Mock, Yeah, ing, Yeah, Berry Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
CLE #7- 1500pts, #39 510 pts, #103 92pts--49ers 2 1st 2200pts
1a. traded for Berry, 1b. traded for Berry(CLE) 1c. #7 Eric Berry, 2a(Cle) Valdheer, 2b Mike Johnson OG, 3. Jacoby Ford WR, 4a(Cle) D McCourty 4b. Stephen Williams, 5. Trindion Holliday, 6. Zac Robinson 7. FB

Easily?
Shawntae Spencer.
He came back in the same suit that he was buried in...Similar to the one his grandfather was married in.
Umm..
I think Shawntae Spencer would have something to say to that.

Bly was flashier, Spencer was better.

Depends on what we do in the draft but bringing a vet to camp to compete cant hurt. We ned to give the youth a shot though. At some point guys like Roman, Harris, and Bly have to give way to younger guys. The way I see it, we should be coming out of the first three rounds with 1-2 OL, DB, pass rusher, and a KR. Guys like Arenas would fill two needs.
do
do you think the niners will go after hayden at 17 if he’s there
He could be a solid backup at worst
At best I think he’d be the nickle corner and a good veteran leader/presence.
Old, good and cheap... even better
