James Hardy, Indiana http://www.walterfootball.com/images/up.jpg
Height: 6-5. Weight: 217.
Projected 40 Time: 4.53.
Combine 40 Time: 4.47.
Vertical: 37. Broad 10-5.
Projected Round: Top 25 Pick.
James Hardy all but cemented his status as a first-round pick with a solid combine. He didn't run the 40, but he notched a 37-inch vertical and dropped only two passes in the drills. The only thing keeping him from being the No. 1 wide out on this list are his character concerns.


Height: 6-53/8 | Weight: 217 | 40-Time: 4.51 http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/playerphotos/wr/jameshardy.jpg
Official Bio (http://iuhoosiers.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/hardy_james00.html)

http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/images/stars/three.gif Strengths:
Phenomenal size with a huge frame and long arms...A terrific natural athlete...Has big, reliable hands and can snatch the ball away from his body...A fantastic leaper with excellent ball skills...Knows how to use his body to shield defenders...Works well in traffic...Can do some damage after the catch...Has pretty good speed for a guy his size...A terror in the redzone...Was real productive...Still has some upside.

Weaknesses:
Isn't very quick or explosive and lacks a burst...May have trouble separating from pro corners...Has some character concerns...Will have to get stronger...Not much of a vertical or deep threat...Just a marginal blocker...Not a great route runner...Is not real physical or aggressive and may lack a football player's mentality...Still raw and will need to be developed...Inconsistent..Is more athlete than football player.

Notes:
Also played on the Hoosier basketball team during the 2004-05 season starting 3 of the 23 games in which he played...Was arrested in 2006 on a domestic battery charge after his girlfriend accused him of hitting her and their son...He only began focusing strictly on football in 2005...A very intriguing physical specimen with rare measurables for the position...Might be a bit overrated since people have fallen in love with his size but in a best-case scenario he could be a Plaxico Burress - type.

I'm happy with this pick, despite how much I wanted Thomas. Hardy will definitely help in the red zone for sure.

McKelvin and Hardy

Thomas and Godfrey

Are you kidding me? OBD, the FO that values "character" above all else, actually picked someone with "character concerns"??

I say its ABOUT TIME . . . this team needs an infusion of bad-a$$ . . .

I'll take that best case scenario, he doesn't even need to hit the same level Burres is on, but approach it and its exactly what we need....now for a TE, then a OLB....awsome 1st day ...possible trade up ????
