Guys a total idiot. Biggest financial time in his whole life and he put it on auto pilot. I can only imagine being in the WR room and guys that have been there a very limited amount of time are more advanced. Mecole is a fool. If his elite speed is gone, he won’t be in the nfl much longer. |

He had made some strides as a real receiver this last year before he got hurt. |

It’s like nobody followed the tea leaves. Hardman was benched in 2021 for Pringle and when Skyy was drafted our personnel department took shots at Hardman for his struggles.
This wasn’t a surprise

No one wants to believe that. Three years ago much of CP decided Hardman couldn't run any routes, that he has bad hands, couldn't get in sync with Pat, and whatever other nonsense the detractors invented. Didn't matter that you could watch any Chiefs highlight reel and literally watch Hardman track the ball well and make good catches deep downfield. Over and over. Didn't matter last season when he repeatedly ran solid routes (not great ones, but good enough) and not only got himself open in a traditional WR route, but made some great grabs under duress with DBs draped all over him. Didn't matter when he showed that he could find the soft spot in a zone fairly consistently, or improv when Pat scrambled and find s soft spot extemporaneously. And make tough catches as he was getting crushed by defenders. Hardman's fate was decided in 2020 as far as CP was concerned. "He's just a jet-sweep gadget player!!!" He had to go elsewhere to change that narrative.

I think Hardman wanted to be emotionless and professional and not say the wrong thing but he's just not "quick on his feet." He's not much of a communicator. If I'm right about any of this the best thing he could have done would be let his agent handle this and stay out of it. Sounds like he did or he at least wants it to sound like he did. Not many dudes come out and admit "I gave it my all, I loved 'er, but she didn't want me." They may say she's a cheating whore or blame money issues but one person always loves the other a little more. That's just how it is. People move on - business definitely does. It's hard when you're the one in that position.

And then he hurt his groin… Then he reinjured it in the playoffs. For a player with his specific skill set, that could be career altering. I guess we’ll see. |

It is not just the state tax rate that matters. I would think overall tax would be a better gauge. According to whatever formula these videos use, shows Missouri with a slightly higher overall tax burden than New Jersey, where the Jets reside. Missouri on 100k per year, 26.92% tax. New Jersey on 100k per year, 26.84% tax. |

1 year $1.5m? I would pay that for him even if I knew for a fact that he’d be the exact same player this year as last AND was going to miss half the season. That is peanuts for probably the best gadget guy in the NFL. |
