Fantasy Football: Mike Harmon’s Awkward Crush on Joey Harrington

READ MORE: Detroit Lions, Fantasy Sports, Joey Harrington, Mike Harmon

JoeyHarrington_072302.jpgWe love the palapable amount of sincerity Yahoo Sports’ Mike Harmon pours into his every column; there’s so much earnestness and overall likeability about the guy you just want to pack him in a suitcase and take him everywhere you go. But, today, Harmon seems to be pushing the aw-shucks-I-don’t-know routine a little far when he’s offering up Detroit Lions’ quarterback Joey Harrington as a sleeper pick. We’re all aware that this guy has so many offensive weapons and that with Kevin Jones’ emergence there should be more time in the pocket for Harrington to throw to one of his 15 first-round draft pick wide receivers he’s got out there. But, a sleeper pick? Is round 17 really considered a sleeper pick? The Philadelphia Eagles’ Ryan Moats—that’s a sleeper pick. But Harrington? Come on, Michael. Don’t do us like that.
