from a Q & A with him:

 

Do you feel you have a weakness?

"No. I don't think I have a weakness."
...
"I feel like I'm the best defensive end in this draft right now. I want to be the best to play in the NFL."

Is there anything you feel you don't get enough credit for?

"Probably my run-stop game. I feel like some people see me mainly as a pass rusher. I feel like I didn't get enough credit for that, but that's okay, I just gotta show it in the league. And that's what I'll do."

I don't see him as a tweener, hes a 4-3 end. He's pretty much a clone of CJ in terms of play style and size

 

That was my first thought.

 

We are going to dump a DE contract next season.  CJ or Hardy, which is why we probably won't lock him down long term in 2014.  I think we wait to see how his season plays out then we make the decision between the 2.

Had this guy in my first of three mocks.  Pretty good motor, not as dynamic as Kraken, but could be a starter after his rookie year.

 

I had him in the second.

 

Everything depends on what we are planning for next season.  If we truly plan on renting Hardy for just one season, then this guy is a possibility, but I think he goes mid second.

what if we are looking at a draft day trade of Hardy instead of renting him for 1 year? we need additional picks and cap room. we have looked at several DE's and we just signed one. Not that I am in favor of it but just saying DG might be preparing for all different kind of things.If a team would go crazy he would have done his preparation for the situation. Just a thought.

Lotta interest in DEs considering the talent we have at the moment.

 

If I am the GM, I want to develop a first year contract DE so he is not a rookie when he has to start.  So I draft one this year, knowing he will start in 2015.

If I am the GM, I give Hardy another year before I lock him into a big contract.  See how he responds to money and the limelight.  He is delightfully strange.  If he gets 8.5 sacks in 2014, his long-term contract gets cheaper.  If he balls, then it is a good sign that he is worth the huge mega-deal.  Gettlemen probably knows that means shopping or cutting CJ.  I think that is why his deal was not re-worked this spring--Gettlemen knows he is going to have to choose. Like Sophie's Choice, sorta. 

 

And who is the CJ clone in the draft?

 

We have come full circle.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
