I think you are over looking James Hardy from Indiana,
he played with a Soph. QB who's best asset was his legs, and was not the most acurate passer. He put up monster #'s and has the size, jumping ability and speed
that the pros love, he also was an all state basketball
player in high school in the state of Indiana. He was good enough with the round ball to get offers from lots
D one schools including Indiana. He only played one year of high school football, so has a huge upside !
Given a couple of years to be coached up and work on his fundamentals I think he could be the steal of this years draft !

I have to agree. This kid broke all 3 major receiving categories at Indiana in only 3 seasons. He missed about 4 games total in the those 4 seasons to boot. He was a top 25 recruit in basketball out of high school and the Fort Wayne, IN all time city leader in points. He blew away Manningham in stats yet somehow Mario gets more pub. His personal problems were really just ONE incident of domestic violence that was dropped. He is an intelligent kid if you hear him speak. He worked out with Calvin Johnson before last season and made "pro cailber" corners look below average at best. This kid will be the steal of the draft. PERIOD!
