I know he has not been convicted yet and we should wait until the outcome.....but will J.R? We all know he is old school and values his teams rep(especially after that horrible incident years ago).Seems like Hardy likes the sauce and the night life and thats a bad combination for staying out of trouble. Question.....will the front office put him on a short leash and give him a second chance or will.J.R want to cut the cord regardless?

This is an interesting thread. Of the 32 owners, if there WAS one owner that would be so bold as to release a franchise tagged player because of something like this, it would be Jerry Richardson. I still don't think it will happen though. But he certainly won't be here past 2014.

We've been hearing one side of all this and people are already declaring him guilty and shipping him off.

 

That's a good point, but I think it's all about how we perceive different players. If it had been Thomas Davis or Kuechly arrested, I'm sure more people would be giving them the benefit of the doubt than Hardy. But things Hardy has done and said and posted on social media have definitely clouded people's perception of the person he is compared to others.

This needs to be settled in court.  Everyone is rushing to judgement for good reason.  Hardy is a big dude who plays with a few screws loose, and this wouldn't be the first time an athlete beat up a female.

 

On the flip side, some of the stuff that came out in court makes me want to know more.  I know we won't get the exact medical report about the girl, but we do need to find out more about the causes of her injury.  Like, were she thrown all over Hardy's extensive collection of weapons, not only should she have indicated injuries, there should also be parts of her on the weapons.

 

Again, we don't know what really happened, and we probably never will.  What the team has to do is figure out if this is it for him, and give him a chance to redeem himself, or let him go fearing another Rae Carruth in the near future...

If he's indeed guilty then I cannot and will not defend his actions, but the facts all need to come out first.

 

as fans we or most of us are waiting, but JR cares more about the team and if history is any indication...Hardy might just be gone already.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
