Justin Hardy route tree breakdown

Good work Kats! Interesting London asked that about Hardy, as I somehow watched quite a few ECU games during Hardy's career, and his YAC ability was possibly the first thing that stood out to me. He just seemed to always turn out something out of nothing... So, even watching him last season, I kind of hoped we would find a way to bring him in.

And I guess this kind of indicative of his YAC ability as well, but as I watched him in games, I never knew his measurables. But watching the way he played, he always struck me as a big, strong receiver. I never thought he was blazing fast, but he was definitely athletic, quick, and strong. Additionally, he looked really long and wiry to me,and his hands always stood out... Part of why I thought he was a much bigger guy than what he actually measured out to be pre-draft. I was actually shocked he was under 6 feet, as again, when I watched him and judging from his appearance and playing style, I assumed he was around 6-2 to 6-3 and 220 lbs.

Regardless, I definitely could see the Hines Ward comparison you made. He is physical and plays a lot bigger than his size... He is a scrapper and is just always making plays. Listening to Proehl's comments earlier in saying he was never big on measurables, he just wanted ball players that can make plays... Imo, Hardy is exactly that guy, and I would love to have him in the middle rounds. That would be huge value.

That being said, i still want a burner as the #2 before that lol.

 

your last sentence is exactly how i feel.

I hope the Panthers stay away from local players

This shouldn't be buried in case some haven't seen it.
