Armanti Edwards making transition smoothly

That’s not the only thing Edwards has on his side. There is even a chance Edwards will be the next Panther to sign a contract since Carolina recently signed fourth-round pick Eric Norwood, who was a star defender at South Carolina. As of now, Carolina’s only unsigned draft picks are Edwards and fellow third-rounder Brandon LaFell of LSU, and second-round pick Jimmy Clausen of Notre Dame.

“My agent is working on it,” Edwards said. “So, maybe in the next couple of weeks, we will have something worked out.”

According to the Carolina Panthers’ website, Armanti Edwards earned an Appalachian State University degree in graphic arts and imaging technology.

Already equipped with a flair for design, Edwards’ studies now lead down his most challenging road yet — making the transition from college quarterback to NFL receiver.

Awesome lead.

Armanti Edwards has Everrette Brown written all over him. He'll show a flash or two but will prove not to be worth what we gave up for him. Hopefully Hurney will be able to keep his d#ck in his pants from now on and will be able to resist the urge to trade away future high draft picks for project players.

If this is how you feel, you might want to avoid the thread about players fellow posters think are poised for breakout seasons.

i can see where you are coming from, and as of now, it has to be proven on the feild. but really, i think that Edwards is just a great athlete who could probably play any position on any sport that he is the right size for.

also, i know that being a rookie, he will mainly play the slot, but i hope we send him deep alot,opening up smitty in the slot position.

I am also excited that the panthers are using a slot receiver.

Everette Brown played one season as a situational pass rusher and didn't have like 16 sacks five FFs and three defensive TDs. BUST.

Didnt say he was a bust. I said he wasnt worth what we gave up for him. Giving up a 1st for a situational pass rusher is insane.

He's not even a starter for crying out loud! He wont ever put up big numbers. He may be a solid player but not worth the 17th pick in the draft.

How do you know he won't start this year? The depth chart is not even close to being set yet, and even if Brown doesn't start, that could just mean that Charles Johnson is getting better and better, or that Greg Hardy was a steal. Either way, we will have good depth at the DE position.

BTW, John Abraham only plays a limited number of snaps, but he is still more effective than a lot of recent first round DE's have been.

I see Armanti Edwards being what Reggie Bush was supposed to be.

Because Fox said when Brayton was resigned that his role would still be the same. That means he's still a starter along with Charles Johnson now.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
