will a rolling harrow work to incorporate fall seeded rye into corn and soybean stubble?

Looking into using an Unverferth 1645 rolling harrow with the air seeder attachment for fall seeding rye cover crop in Iowa. Have been hiring it done by a guy with a Landoll drill but cover enough acres that it’s getting pretty spendy. Advantages to the harrow look to be superior speed, lower purchase price and cost of operation of the harrow but wonder if I would be happy with the stand. We’re 100% no-till so would be harrowing into bean stubble and corn stalks. Any advice appreciated.
