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.

    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
    • Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
