Sidney Rice had 4 TD's.

he also missed 3 games and had terrible qb play.

give me about 500-600 yards and 5-6 tds and i'm happy with hardy's production this year.

He REALLY reminds me of Randy Moss. Sorry he just does.

if he ran about 3 tenths of a second faster in the 40, then yes he'd be randy moss.

let's not get carried away.

OK..now tell me which one these players can run a 4.4, and have as much agility as Hardy does. Other than Randy Moss. 6'6" holy..he is bigger than all of them.

The guy screams Plaxico Burress all over him.

billsfanpozlynch
04-28-2008, 08:21 PM
I think he has a mix between Plaxico Buress and Randy Moss, only not as quick as randy

Yea I see that too.... This guy doesnt look slow AT ALL in any of the reels I've seen. Heck with the 40 time, I'm going with the tape. He's plenty fast on that.

04-28-2008, 08:36 PM
Calvin Johnson was about 5000000000 times the prospect as him and only had 4 TDs (and injured the whole year), but we can't expect more than that

i sure hope hes like randy but to be realistic ill take marques colston like production

To be Fair, Drew Bennett was injured for most of the season.

He's great when healthy.

You'll see 50 catches from Hardy next season, with probably the most he'll see is 70.

I hope James can get up to 230 adding muscle and keeping his speed... Colston/Marshall

Plaxico without all of the early problems

Over his career he will be just like Vincent Jackson.

His style looks like plaxico, but i dont know if he will be that good, the way he uses his size looks like plax

BuffaloBound

I think we are forgetting one of the main purposes of Hardy. Yes he is going to be expected to make some plays, but more importantly he is going take double coverage off Evans. Evans went from 88 catches to 55 last year. Hopefully he will contribute that way as well. And I will also say hopefully he has a Randy Moss rookie year.

I'm hoping for Moss or Plax!! No question... sign Lee and get that kind of production and we are good to go for years!!

Billspower
04-29-2008, 03:22 PM
Wow some impressive stat totals for the over 6'4" wideouts over the last few years... I hope he's more in a mold of Colston, Moss or Burress than any of the Williams's or the like... He dominated in college & was in the top 3 of most draft boards... I hope Trent starts practicing his corner of the end zone fade patterns & jump ball passes... GO BILLS!

Hardy has some serious agility, i think that is what makes him a little different than most guys over 6'4." For a man of his size running a 6.84 cone drill and a 4.2 shuttle shows a lot of agility. I'm not saying he'll definitely be as talented as Plax, Moss, but i think he has the same kind of athletic ability.

ksafe29
04-29-2008, 05:12 PM
Hardy will be his own 6'4 or taller receiver... lol

04-29-2008, 09:25 PM
Yeah I also see Plaxico Burress. Most people say he's a Burress type player.

Another name I've heard more than once is Harold Carmichael who played in the 70's and 80's.

Do the old heads remember him at all?

i like the vincent jackson comparison

being a notre dame fan, hardy's ability to win jump balls reminds me of stovall and samardzija

he's at this point a way less talented burress

I think he'll have a good first year? 6'5 220lbs 4.4 40 our whole offense just upgraded I say 1000yards is possible
