I know this is meant to be joke, but what's done is done.

I disagree with what Hurney did because AE is such a project, but I think he has a chance to be better than what people think. He is such a tremendous athlete that I think down the line (2 years from now), he can be a weapon.

And that's where it will matter most, because I think this team is a 2-3 year project.

how can u make judgement on armanti after 1 season, he did not get to play much and was forced to learn an entirly different position. You guys had a hard on for Jarret for 2 years before u turned on him.

I think its hard to make a judgement, but considering he hasn't played a meaningful snap, as fans you have to be open to the possibility of him being a contributor.

That's why people who bash the trade are jumping to rash statements when he was a rookie, learning a new position, with a rebuilding team.

this will make it worth while.. if he is a dangerous weapon (and it's possible) I'll be okay with it.. if he turns out to be Ryne Robinson, then we definitely lost out.. big.

but there is no doubt, he has huge upside.. and to judge him after this year is really f**king stupid.. If anyone thinks this year is all Edwards will ever be is being entirely too short sighted..

and so Zod's plan here has succeeded...

am i the only person that's not seen much of this 'athleticism' everyone keeps harping on? i know he hasn't shown much in the NFL... but athleticism in college does not always translate

i'd love for him to be the next SS, and am willing to wait on him to progress, but so far i've seen nothing that screams 'freak athlete' like some people preach on here

Very much a valid point. I would not say "freak athlete" to describe Armanti Edwards. He's fast and has great vision. You can see that in his college tape when he pulls down the ball and finds open seams to run through. As a natural Moose possesion type receiver, I don't think that type of athleticism will translate well. But for a Wes welker slot receiver type role, where he can use his speed, quickness, and vision to find soft spots, that may be a possibility.

Bottom line: I think he has tremendous upside, and potential that might not be reached for another 3 years or so. But if you look at the big picture, I think this team is going to be ready to seriously compete in 2-3 years, and if that's when he blossoms into a contributor, it could be perfect timing.

    • I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs
    • I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6
    • Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
