. * James Hardy - WR - 6'5" 215 lbs. - Indiana
Hardy is a tall receiver who was a force for the Hoosiers in the Big Ten. He had a great 2007 season and a fine workout at the NFL Combine. Hardy can be a big-time playmaker.

So nothing is wrong with his knees

Good write up on Hardy.
http://sportsline.com/nfl/players/draft/516911
"Hardy is the only wide receiver in Indiana history to surpass 2,500 yards, 175 receptions and 35 touchdowns. He finished his career with 36 scores on 191 catches, good for 2,740 yards. He also made a significant contribution on the basketball team as a freshman." -

Here's his injury history at Indina:
"INJURY REPORT
2005: Sat out the Michigan game (11/12) after suffering an Achilles tendon strain the previous week vs. Minnesota (11/05).
2007: Suffered a left ring finger fracture early in August camp and had the finger placed in a splint for two weeks. "
Also, they compare him to Harold Carmichael or poor mans Plaxico Burress.
Considering I dont know who Harold Carmichael even though it sounds familiar, I would go with poor mans Plax.Kanye West and ATVZ400 like this. -

You friend's statement that James Hardy will not be good in the Pro's is unqualified. Hardy is a 1st Round Talent. Whether he becomes Jerry Rice or Rashuan Woods is still out but he has as good as a chance of any receiver in this draft class. Hardy IMO is the best WR in the draft.

If he is wrong that % of the time, thank God he's not controling our draft. -
Thanks for the info

I haven't seen anything written about knee concerns. Just my own thoughts - I think he could possibly be a nice complement to Ginn. A 6'6 or 6'7 WR would potentially be a huge advantage over the typical 6' CB.
