Thread: History of Inuries Makes Hardin Difficult to Evaluate

I'm glad that he's a Bear, but I'm also teetering a little bit on the whole notion that he's only started like 16 games in his collegiate career due to injuries. If he had played some of his senior year at Oregon State, I probably wouldn't be so reticent to believe that he's going to pan out for us. Nevertheless, I could be totally wrong about him.

Well look at the bright side of it Dags. He's practically brand new! I mean they just got the cast........er, I mean the wrapping paper off him. Just polish him up a bit and he'll be fine.

This has Jerry Angelo written all over it. You simply don't draft a player who missed more than half the games he played in college due to injury. I could be totally wrong in my assumption, but this is ridiculous to draft someone whom you can't guarantee will play a full season. (Disclaimer: This is true for all players, but this kid is a magnet for the Injured Reserve list IMHO.)
