How to save Armanti


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

Armanti Edwards has no business being on an NFL roster. How many 3rd (traded future 2nd) rd WR have 3 catches thru 3 seasons & are still on an active roster? He also has yet to do anything worth mentioning as a return man. He flat out sucks. And "he wasn't a WR in college" isn't an excuse anymore. Plenty of guys have switched from QB/DB/RB to WR in the NFL & been successful. Being a "project, hard worker, hometown guy, good guy, fan favorite" isn't cutting it anymore. AE fans argue in his favor because they know 0 of the remaining 31 teams would sign him.

It's kinda funny. Dwayne Jarrett is absolutely hated around here for being a bust & failure. Which he was. However, he had 33 receptions to Armanti's 3 after his 3rd season. Both were pretty much the exact same draft value; Jarrett #45, Armanti #89 & future 2nd. And Jarrett's QBs were Tommy-John Delhomme, Matt Moore, & Jimmy Clausen.

I grew up in Boone, NC & attended ASU for 2 years before transferring to UNC. I was there during Armanti's glory days & loved watching him. But he does not belong on an NFL field.

If he was John Doe from California not one person here would mention him unless it was to say he sucked & should be cut.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
