James Hardy WR Indiana - Possible 2nd round pickup for NE?
I like what James has to bring to a team this year and he is projected to go early to mid 2nd round.
Would you want New England to take a shot at this scoring machine with one of their picks in the 2nd?
He could be another great WR and certainly has great size

Re: James Hardy WR Indiana - Possible 2nd round pickup for NE?
IMO Hardy is the best WR in the draft. He scores TDs, which is what separates #1 WRs in the NFL from pretenders. He has had some problems getting off the LOS, and some off field issues a couple years ago, but those problems are par for the course and IMO he should figure out how to release given some experience. All that said, he is not a fit for the Pats. He is a poor man's Randy Moss, and we already have the real Randy Moss locked up for 3 years. I think Buffalo would jump at him in rd 2 if he's there, assuming they take a cb at #11.

I agree with most of your stuff but I think I would be far from dissapointed if we did go after him.
Maybe the future of Chad Jackson may rely on where we take a receiver this year and how high up in the draft we go to take a WR - We definately will take one - somewhere and give Chad a big push to be mor ethan a bench warmer and occasional special team player
Re: James Hardy WR Indiana - Possible 2nd round pickup for NE?
With so many needs needs on the O-Line and in the back-8 on D, why would we waste a 2cond round pick on a wideout when we already have the likes of Moss, Welker, Gaffney and Chad Jackson ? What kind of sense does that make? Not to sound nasty or anything, I just don't see the need for WR until we get into R4 or later.

You got "crucified" because of your ignorance. You had your facts wrong about Manningham. Not to mention your internet tough guy attitude because you think that Manningham is some kind of deep threat to line up opposite Moss.
But, hey, keep playing the victim. Its fun to watch and laugh at.

LOL, do you realize how badly you just got owned in that thread? But hey, keep calling me ignorant. After all, I am the one that can actually read a post before I respond. Guess that makes me ignorant.

Re: James Hardy WR Indiana - Possible 2nd round pickup for NE?
Simply put, just too many other needs (OLB, ILB, DB, RT, ) before burning a 2nd round pick on a WR. We have one of the best WR corps in the game (with Kelly Washington as your 5th receiver). Why have him (a WR) being an game time inactive for most of the year? Better to get some depth at OLB & ILB and DB as the defense is always getting injuries. Also WR is supposed to be quite deep this year so you could pick up one in the 2nd day if you really felt the need to add to our WR corps. (aurguably deepest position on the team).
