Bills' rookie Hardy eager to make immediate impact
By JOHN WAWROW, AP Sports Writer
PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) - Rookie receiver James Hardy's first objective in an effort to make an immediate impact on the Buffalo Bills offense this season is a simple one: Get close with the guy throwing him the ball, quarterback Trent Edwards.
"I'm trying to be Trent's best friend," Hardy said. "Whatever I have to do, if I have to go to his house, I'll be there."
As to whether the offer included him picking up Edwards' laundry or cooking dinner, Hardy paused in thought before saying: "If he needs me to do it, I'll definitely do it — just this first year."
Whatever it takes, and time limits aside, the Bills' second-round pick out of Indiana is eager and keenly aware of the contributions he can make to what was a popgun passing attack last season. Buffalo finished 30th in the NFL in yards passing and the offense scored 20 touchdowns — a franchise low in a 16-game season.
