Webb Drafted as....

[SpeedOFLight]

Well I am sure most of you are watching the Eagles fall apart. I have to say, I am very impressed in that Webb kid. What does this have to do with Carolina? Webb was drafted as a wide out ...and now is play *gasp* QB. I am not one of the guys that thinks Edwards is the next Vick or something but at this point, give someone else a chance. We gave up a pick for this kid and he really hasn't seen the field this year at all. Experts don't think that Edwards is a NFL caliber QB, but these same experts though Clausen was more likely to succeed in NFL than other QBs in the draft due to him already playing in a pro system....just saying.

Edwards is too short. Like 5'10, 180lb. He doesn't look as fast or as sturdy as Vick. If in the future he does get a chance, I hope I'm wrong.

[TheRealDeal]

He wasn't projected to be better than all of them. He had many many flaws coming out that a lot of experts pointed out.

Bottom Line:

Teams are starting to figure out how to develop young QBs quickly.

This coaching staff hasn't.

Webb is 6'4" 200+lbs... he uh, towers over AE.

[rmoneyg35]

Webb is also 6'4 220. AE is 5'10 180. I know that many people would like to see what AE can do as a Qb in the NFL because of his college success but I don't think he will be able to be a succesful NFL Qb.

I don't think we should give up on AE. He is very small but with a year of developing as a WR he could put on an extra 20 pounds of muscle which he needs to do so he will be able to get off the line of scrimmage. Right now I feel that our coaching staff is taking their time to develop his body and help him learn as much as he can to be a successful WR. I have a gut feeling that next year he will get his playing time and we can finally see why we were so high on drafting this kid.

Carolina Message Board after Bears/Cardinals game 2006:

"The Denny Green tirade was embarassing, but still at least Arizona now knows Leinart is the real deal."

Bingo!

We have a winner!

Tell him what he's won, Kurb.

It doesn't matter how tall you are if your not a pocket quarterback as Edwards and Webb clearly are not. They both are scramblers and tend to make throws on the run or outside the pocket.

Nonetheless, Armanti's low release probably eliminates him from ever being an NFL quarterback as Joe Webb tends to throw above his head.

[mav1234]

where did you hear/read armanti had a low release? there's images of his release being over his head, probably above Clausen's, lol.

I just hope a new coach can actually utilize Armanti for something other than a bench warmer.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Good god, another start Armanti thread. Can these please die in the off season? Please? Webb has probably had a lot of practice lately with Favre and Tavaris going down. AE hasn't practiced a damn thing. Not only is he too small, but he'd look lost out there on Sunday.

Just what is it? Is it because he's a Carolina Panther and you can say no wrong about 95% of the team? Why do people think he can actually be a solid QB in the NFL? I really need to know.

He slings the ball he does not get the ball over his head.

I have seen pictures of his release with no pads on and standing still but when he is running and has pads on he does not get the ball over his head.
