          Broken bones are actually stronger. Doesn't necessarily mean they'll be better or heal correctly. Man, I was not happy about this pick during the draft. I know we wanted a bruiser back, but a bruiser with a history of injuries? Why? Obviously he's gonna take some hard hits. It just blows my mind to know that we moved up for this guy.

                When I busted my knee up and came back it seemed like every little hit hurt for a while. Hopefully it was an over-reaction on his part...

                    He was able to walk ok when he went back to the locker room, and didn't come back out. I hope they were just being cautious, and it wasn't anything too serious.

                      I replayed it several times in frame by frame slow motion, and you couldn't see what happened- too many bodies in the way.

                          there are reports today on the news he left the stadium on crutches. so not sure how serious it is but that is never a good sign. lets just hope for a neg MRI or hope Hillis will become the bruising back if he can not come back.

                            it was a risky pick taking him in the 2nd (and im a vols fan) but I genuinely think his upside isthe best of any running back in that draft. In the short time he was in there you could see perfectly his style of running, he always goes straight up field, no dancing around, he has excellent pad level which makes it extremely difficult for tacklers to get under which means on contact, hardesty has already won the leverage battle and just by driving his legs and falling forward, he gains an extra 2-3 yards as opposed to back who stand too upright and get blown back -1 yards. I just hope they are being overly cautious with that knee. The great news is our backfield is loaded. Harrison and Hillis could start for almost any team in the NFL and Davis and Jennings would make solid back ups anywhere in the NFL, AND WE HAVE ALL 4 ON OUR TEAM

                            as far as injury goes, my guess would be a pcl sprain or partial tear. thats an injury that happened to me and walking around was no problem, but driving off of it and making cuts is what aggrevates it, I hope its not that serious, but I think that is a worst case scenario

                              Sounds like a torn ACL and year-long IR.

                                Initial diagnosis for Browns back Montario Hardesty isn't good

                                Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on September 3, 2010 11:27 AM ET

                                The Browns drafted Montario Hardesty because they loved his smarts and his skills. But they also knew he was only available late in the second round because of his injury history.

                                On Thursday night, that history caught up to him in heartbreaking fashion.

                                The initial diagnosis following Hardesty's injury is that the impressive rookie suffered a torn ACL, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Further tests will be taken today to confirm the news.

                                Hardesty was expected to lead the Browns backfield, but this is one position the team has sufficient depth. Jerome Harrison is a quality option, and Peyton Hillis will probably play more tailback now. James Davis also looked impressive on Thursday night.

                                UPDATE: The diagnosis was confirmed. Hardesty is out for the year.

                                  His running style, pushing the pile with all that stress on his bent knees has to take it's toll.

                                  He should have just got as much as he could get, and gone down to the ground to run again.

                                  Instead, he kept going, but bent knees are far, far more apt to be injured from the force of resistance,

                                  they are much less stable to force from the side...

                                  too bad for Hardesty.

                                          Why do we keep saying these draft picks were Mangini mistakes? This kid was picked by Heckert.
