Carolina Panthers’ Picking Joe Adams Makes Armanti Edwards Obsolete

With the 104th pick of the 2012 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select: Joe Adams WR Arkansas. Joe Adams is an explosive Return Man and dynamic WR. There's no doubt that drafting him makes Edwards obsolete, especially since the only contribution Edwards was being allowed to make was at PR, if you called it a contribution. I expect Edwards to be cut soon.

Yeah, I think they give him one more shot at receiver.

Yea, he's going to get a chance to make an impact at WR while being the backup PR. He has a small, very small chance to compete at PR as well. He's not going to win that one though, so his only shot is at WR.

Camp will be interesting this year. We have legit competition in key positions this year. We actually have competition at the return game for the first time in a long time. Giving us good field position with returns only boosts our already hi powered offense. Pilares did well last year, not great, but considering how long its been since we've had decent returns, we took it. I am looking forward to camp, preseason games and offseason.

AE will go into camp as the PR, but I'm sure that the FO's real plans are for Adams to be the PR, so essentially it's Adam's job to lose. AE will be the 3rd or 4th WR, depending on how they view Gettis, on the depth chart going into camp.

    • Push em to the brink!!! Shut em down Freddie!
    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
