I am a App State graduate (Class of '10) & I've watched AE play football live for four years so I know what I'm talking about. Unless AE begins to produce DRAMATICALLY next year, he'll be cut by training camp. Drafting him in the 3rd round sacrificing a 2nd rounder as a PR/WR was not a very smart move. He's fantastic at Wildcat but that's it. Sorry Hurney & my fellow App State buds, but Armanti is not a PR/WR & wasn't worth a 3rd rounder & future 2nd rounder.

It's not his fault what they gave for him, He made huge improvements this off season what makes you think he won't get another chance too see if he improved this coming off season lol?

I also watched him live throughout his career, and it was like watching him play vs a bunch of high school seniors.

Nearly every close friend I have went to ASU, and I don't think a single one of us thought it was a good idea what Hurney and/or Richardson did or think he's going to pan out.

There is no reason to blame the guy for being picked.

when i heard what they gave up for him, i thought it was 80% because of his name and 20% because they thought he was worth it.

I really don't buy the winning over App Fans angle. It's not a big school and they are all Panther fans already.

I think they thought they were being smart. :(

I think Edwards is a great guy and has worked his butt off..... but he is just not going to pan out at the NFL level. He is just not quick enough to return KR/PR and is a whole lot better at plays QB than WR. This was one of Hurneys gambles that blew up in his face.

Armanti could work out for a team that wants a wildcat qb type player to switch things up... But with us cam is already that player. There is no point in putting him in when he is a undersized version of our qb. i went to app too and want armanti to succeed but its not happening here.we need to let him go and use that roster spot on someone who can contribute more.

App State 1985 here and followed Armanti for 4 years as well. He is a QB. Not a punt returner or slot receiver. He is not an NFL quality QB unfortunately (though honestly I think he would have done better than Clausen.) As a punt returner he lacks that burst of speed to take it from 1st gear to 4th without hitting 2nd and 3rd. I think he's gone unless Marty wants to give him another year to cover his butt. 2 different coaches and both evidently thought he is not ready for prime time. I think he could tear it up in Canadian rules football though!

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
