Panthers attend Edwards workout

Per the Observer (link)

Notable that he's had discussions with Tyke Tolbert, not Rip Scherer.

He is a playmaker. I went to some ASU games when I lived in Boone. I'd love to grab him in the later rounds.

PR/KR and maybe 3rd or 4th WR.

[The Saltman]

waits for panthro..........

They worked out Ryne Robinson a while back, but it doesn't look like they'll sign him.

I liked Robinson... too bad he got hurt.

Excerpts from Gantt's report...

The Mountaineers star worked as both a quarterback and a receiver during the workouts, and caught punts on a windy Boone afternoon before meeting with reporters.

...

Along with the Panthers, representatives from Kansas City, Buffalo, Washington, Detroit, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, Philadelphia and Cleveland were here.

Edwards said he had four individual workouts scheduled the rest of the month, with the Jaguars Wednesday, Panthers Thursday, the Miami Dolphins on the 22nd and the Indianapolis Colts on the 30th.

Edwards said the Panthers had displayed "strong interest," saying he met with coach John Fox and position coach Tyke Tolbert at the scouting combine in Indianapolis earlier this month.

Again, take "strong interest" with a grain of salt, but I'd be fine with drafting him in the later rounds.

I would love to have him here.

[Darth Biscuit]

It's in his best interest to drum up any interest (perceived or otherwise) that teams show him... I don't blame him for playing it up.

With a guy like that returning punts, we could finally bring back the Chris Gamble lateral play.

That's funny because that's exactly what I was thinking...

[Fiz]

mods make a filter that replaces Armanti Edwards with Pat White.

[rayzor]

if he's willing to play whatever role is asked of him, he'll go further and be in more demand. as a WR who can return punts and then throw the ball on different packages he will be solid.

how does he look running? i've heard really good things.
