Panthers won't cut Armanti Edwards anytime soon

For those of you looking on the wires for Armanti's name, its not going to happen.

 

Edwards is a great camp player. He is always on time, pays attention, gives all he has got. They need guys like him so that they have enough WRs to conduct a full camp and evaluate QBs and DBs. AE has the respect of all the players and coaches.

 

I don't believe he will make the team this year. Look for him to be one of the last cuts made in August.

Not only is he a good camp player but I don't see them making many (if any really) WR cuts before they absolutely have to.  It's a position, like the secondary positions are, where we're going to go into camp with way too many people on the roster to promote competition then make cuts near the end after they're damn sure they  have the best group of receivers possible out of what's available.

 

Besides...I don't see why I'd want to see him cut this early anyway.  Do we gain anything from it aside from some sort of satisfaction that he's gone?

In addition, its not like he would catch on quickly with another team. They did Keiser a favor by cutting him early. He may be able to catch on to another team. But when the Panthers are done with Armanti he will be in the CFL. Probably do REALLY well there.

Armanti is the ultimate example of an over draft victim here.  This organization gave up way too much for him and he has faced unrelenting criticism and unrealistic expectations.  If we had drafted the kid where he should have been drafted 6th, 7th or UDFA no one would have a bad word to say other than "damn, I wish Armanti would have panned out."  That would have been the end of it, but noooooooo, Marty had to trade 7,000 picks and use a 3rd rounder to get him.  Not Armanti's fault, but that's the life of a pro football player.  I hate it happened to him but this is after all, a business, of which he has none being here after camp.

    • Yeah the Wilson ACL thing is and was a wild situation that is ultimately not an issue but we apparently didn't have the right intel to clear him.   
    • Don't disagree but if we were determined to go with a RB, Corum was close in pre draft ranking to Brooks. 
    • Start who?  Brycen?  C'mon now Renfrow can't start on the outside, so unless you're starting Brycen or a week 1 inactive in Horn Jr, until Coker comes back, XL has to be the starter by default. Again, this is why you don't trade Thielen, because yes, we had depth before, but depth is only good when you don't lose multiple of your top options, and Thielen and Coker were going to be our #2 and #3 this year, then we lost them 48 hours apart. And when Coker is back, he's the immediate starter on the outside, which I think can even be good for XL, as he could do well from the slot if you scheme some easy passes across the middle to him to let him then use his speed and strength to make plays with the ball in his hands.
