Armanti Edwards

The guy is just not that talented. I like him, he seems to work his butt off but we gave up way too much for him. Mark him under lesson learned and move on. I know I have.

I think it depends on what you mean by talent. If we're talking athleticism standards, I think Armanti has NFL level athleticism in terms of what he can do when he gets the ball in his hands. His obstacle will be actually getting the ball in his hands. He's just stuck in a rut because he isn't a QB converted WR with, say, Brad Smith type size. It's the same reason Randle El hasn't been able to make a consistent impact...Pittsburgh just did the right things with the talents he had for a few years.

I don't think Armanti will be a mainstay, but I don't think he should be undermined in terms of what he's accomplished so far.

Yeah Randle El is an inch shorter than him...

This debate wouldn't even be here had he not had been a stretch by hurney. If we got him in the 5th or 6th people wouldn't have ill will towards him but since we reached and got him( which is hurney not Armanti )people expect to much.

Give the guy 3/4 years if he is still dropping passes / not seeing the field or hadn't had a touchdown then we can label him a bust.. until then chill out and let the dude develop.

We let Drew Carter , Dwayne Jarrett and Kerry Colbert stay here for 4 years . They came drafted as wide receivers expected to perform, not a project that they needed to develop .. so I doubt he's gone in 3.

That had more to do with a lack of talent in front of those subject players.

Put this on Hurney if you want, he did draft 3 receivers in the same year.

You're right. He's gone in two unless the light comes on in a BIG way, and pretty soon.

Ron isn't a patient man.

Has an average of 10 yards over 4 games !!!!! And we let one of the best punt and kick return in the Big East two years ago Go !!!!!! SMDH

His 10 yard return against the Saints was the longest one they have given up all season...not even the mighty Devin Hester did that

If he coud actually get some blocking, he would be doing a lot better

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
