How effective will Harvey be
The Jacksonville Jaguars finally ended a lengthy holdout with defensive end Derrick Harvey. Now, the question is how long will it take to get him to speed with the rest of the team.
Fortunately, the defensive end is not a position with a lot of thinking to it. It is more of a position of physical strength.
The only thing mentally that Harvey needs to do is to get down his terminology of his playbook. So, that way he knows what to do on each play.
What Harvey will need to improve on is his strength. A lot of players do not know what really is the right way to take care of your body. For most rookies it takes a full year to get into the right habits.
If Harvey settled his contract before training camp, then he could of gotten off to a good start at the beginning of the season. However, it is more likely that Harvey will struggle to start off the season.
The only person to blame for that is Harvey himself.
