According to ESPN.com's Vaughn McClure, the Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears will target Harris in the event he hits the open market:
"Harris would project to inside linebacker in the Bears’ new base 3-4 front," wrote Pro Football Talk's Mike Wilkening. "In Atlanta, Harris could fit at middle linebacker in a 4-3 scheme."
It's still a little too early to begin envisioning Harris stepping on the field for either Chicago or Atlanta. ESPNNewYork.com's Rich Cimini reported a few days ago that Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan was going to meet with Harris' representatives at the NFL combine in hopes of reaching a deal before March 10:
"I would say that David is a player we would very much like to get back in the mix," said Maccagnan, per Dom Cosentino of NJ Advance Media.
The 31-year-old is coming off yet another strong season. He led his team in tackles (124) while also recording 5.5 sacks.
