I think people overeact to these 'we wanted' reports.
I am sure we liked the player. I imagine we were 'upset' when he was taken.
But he was AMONG A GROUP of players we liked, one of whom we chose.
BB has shown over the years that he targets a group of guys he likes in a spot, then moves around so he at least gets one of the group.
All this means is that Hardesty was among the group. IMO>
I'm not bothered by the fact that I didn't draft a RB. My guy was McCluster, but he went much too early. I like the pass catchers we got for Brady. As long as the OL is healthy the running game will be fine.
Shows that BB knows he needs a RB.
Hardesty went in the 2nd, a round earlier than our traded 3rd.Don't forget folks that we traded a 3rd for a 2nd next year.
The Patriots could have had both Hardesty and Spikes had the Browns not taken him.
The only question is, is Hardesty better than the player they will get at the Carolina slot in the 2nd round next year?
