Rookie WR James Hardy to start for Bills

It's being reported that rookie wide out James Hardy will start opposite Lee Evans in the Bills first preseason game. Hardy stands 6'7 and could be a legitimate red zone threat for Trent Edwards. Hardy scored 36 touchdowns in 3 seasons with Indiana, including 16 last year. The Bills took Hardy with the 10th pick in the 2nd round of the 2008 draft.

Fantasy Impact: It usually takes rookie wide receivers a while to get acclimated to the NFL but Hardy could make an immediate impact because of his size. He may be worth a shot as a your 5th receiver in deep leagues. If not, keep an eye on him this year. He could be a nice play for you during one of your starters bye weeks.
