and AE is not activated will you consider his selection a complete failure? With Mike Williams and Geno Atkins on the board when we traded up I certainly would.
it depends on if they weren't planning on him being a factor until next year anyway.

i don't think you can really judge players, esp. WRs and QBs, on their rookie year.

it takes most WRs a few years to be NFL ready.

Edwards wasn't drafted to be starting WR in 2010.

but with what we gave up he was expected to contribute

you dont give up a 2nd rounder for a player that you expect to deactivate most of the season

there are plenty of WRs who were drafted after him who are getting plenty of clock, yet AE hasnt seen a snap yet. nobody expects him to be a starter but with what we gave up, we expect him to be out there making catches

Considering the pick isn't technically used until next year, I believe you have to at least give it until the end of said year to make a judgement.

The real question is, did we really need another "Panthro hates on AE" thread?

We have 2 Wide Receivers out. If we don't activate him and he sees the field then he was a garbage selection and the FO now believes it too.

Name a WR we have selected under Fox that panned out?

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
