So we just expect him to hit the ground running next year in year 2 with little playing time under his belt?

Holy shit, did you forget this post from this very thread about Hardman's rookie season. It was directed at you and you even responded to it.

I have no doubt that he will be prepared.
He is not going to take snaps from Hardman, but as the number 4 WR he should finish with being in on 30-40% of the offensive snaps. There's a chance for it to be higher if there are any injuries.
All you have to do is look at Mecole's rookie year. The guy got a ton of snaps the first 7 weeks of his rookie year, but it's because Tyreek Hill was out and then week 6 Tyreek didn't play a ton and week 7 Sammie Watkins was out. Here are the percentages he played those 7 weeks.
1- 78%
2- 73%
3- 63%
4- 63%
5- 61%
6 - 52%
7- 47%
Week 8 - 10 and we have a healthy group of WR and his snap count went down significantly
8- 15%
9- 18%
10- 22%
Week 11 rolls around and I can't remember, but it looks like Tyreek got hurt in the game, because he only played 10% of snaps. Guess who's snap count went up? Mecole's
11- 76%
Then all the guys were back from 12-16
12- 38%
13- 18%
14- 20%
15- 34%
16- 33%
Even in the post season he didn't get many snaps
17- 16%
18- 40%
19- 28%
The thing about this is Mecole took advantage of his playing time and after week 1 he played really well for a rookie.
In weeks 2-8, he had 374 yds and 4 TDs. Even though he was only in 15% of offensive snaps in week 8. That's 53 yds a game and comes out to 850 yds and 10 TDs. He outplayed Robinson by a ton during that stretch, but still when everyone was healthy he had limited snaps.
This is how Andy Reid does things.
