At first, Edwards is going to earn his pay as a punt returner. He did exactly what I hoped he would do last night. He caught the ball on punts and didn't drop it, despite all the rain. First learn to focus on the ball and catch the punts. After that, learn to be ready to run and find his blockers.

The receiver stuff will take longer and can be worked on throughout the season.

Break all preseason return yards records.

Speak fluent dolphin, chimpanzee, and wasp.

Have a touch-back, FG, receiving TD, rushing TD, Passing TD, safety, block FG, force fumble, sack, fumble recovery, 67 yard punt in one game.

Catch a pass while crucified.

Change the rules to wait five years and become a Hall of Famer in three years.

Do 8.5 cartwheels on the sun.

NFL re-name touch-down "Armanti Edwards"

Find a cure for cancer.

Have 17 recs in one quarter.

Score a 85 yard touchdown while carrying a two DTs and LB on his back.

Those would do for starters but wait and see what happens when he really gets comfortable and warmed up. :)

Jesus, what do you people expect? Put yourself in his shoes: You were a QUARTERBACK at APP STATE and your first game playing a NEW POSITION in the NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE is on NATIONAL TELEVISION against the BALTIMORE RAVENS DEFENSE in the POURING RAIN. Who in the history of the game could have had such a quick transition where they would have come out looking like a veteran receiver in Preseason Game 1?

I was critical of the pick and especially the trade, but what do you think the front office was thinking Armanti was going to do against the Ravens in Preseason Game 1 back in April when they traded for him. If you think they thought he was going to tear things up, you're a moron.

Kid is way over his head. It might start clicking mid season but I really hope we Wright a chance at PR.

Since when has Wright even been in the mix to be a returner? Hes a special teams player...but that doesnt make him a returner.

      The coaches can't figure out what to do with BY9 much less Leggette

      Give Legette another season?

      By frankw · Posted

      There is a lot of talk about his IQ and his commitment to the game and this and that and no one can firmly say one way or another unless they are with him day to day. Not to mention the standards don't jive with the presented reasoning for defending Bryce Young’s rookie season and subsequent beginning of his sophomore season and third season to where we are now 40+ games as he is finally beginning to string together better QB play. When I think of Legette present day I think back to Ted Ginn being a pretty significant bust with the Dolphins as a 9th overall pick and then coming to Carolina (twice) and still struggling with the same mental errors on the field and Cam Newton going back to him again and again and again and even going to a Super Bowl with him as the #1 WR. Deactivating him is weak. Figure something out to his strengths for the rest of the season and reassess in the offseason.

      No MATTER WHAT HAPPENS TWO WEEKS FROM NOW.... this season is a WIN in my books

      I think the season has been a success.  I try to look back at what I said would be a successful season before week 1 and we have reached that.  The success though has you wanting more haha.  But we've had improvements and are right there fighting.  Bryce has improved which was a big thing we needed.  Hope we improves more obviously.  But I agree with others about Evero, unless we have an offense putting up 30 points a game I don't like this type of defense he has.  No pressure either.  The biggest issues I see with this team are, zero pressure on the QB, soft zones, and the horrible special teams play on kickoffs/return coverage.  So I wouldn't mind replacing Evero if someone better is available and definitely get someone new running special teams.  When you combine Evero's defense and the fact we allow teams such good field position often it's a bad match.  Overall, we have won 8 games which is crazy.
