Hardestly a Hold Out - Rookie RB Agrees to Deal

According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, promising first year RB Montario Hardesty (Tennessee) has agreed in principal to a deal that will allow him join fellow rookies 4 days before veterans report. Hardesty was impressive in minicamp and OTAs and with Jerome Harrison's early holdout protesting his 2nd round tender offer, Hardesty spent much of the practice sessions lining up with the first team offense. Hardesty is a quick, powerful back with above average hands and apparently a killer spin move: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usCCVRtUHw8.

We expect Hardesty and Harrison to split carries this season and should make for one of the best 1-2 punches in the NFL. Welcome to Cleveland, officially, Montario!
