When assessing if Harper is living up to his contract, you also have to look at opportunities they may have been forced to pass up as a result of signing him. He is having a very good year, but if you they had a crystal ball and knew they would miss the playoffs for the first 3 years and be 171-173 overall, would they still sign him? They probably would have sold a lot less goofy Philly Phanatic head bands.
Who have they not been able to sign after Harper?
