Armah or Barnage?

[Byrdman4real]

With Olsen out should Armah be promoted or bring in a guy like Barnage?

I'm not sure how many times it needs to be said:

Armah does not play tight end and our offensive coordinator doesn't even know what a pass catching H-back is. 

[countryboi]

you could bring Armah in and allow Dickson to play Olsens roll

[Zaximus]

With a team that relies on tight end play like us, bringing Barnidge in should be a TOP priority right now.  TOP.    Also the additional blocking because, we're going to need it.

Even before the season I was seriously doubting that Olsen would get 1000 yds. again this year, but there's no doubt we're hurting without him. Barnidge keeps getting workouts but I never hear anything about any offers. Hard to believe he's total crap all of a sudden so maybe he's making it clear he won't come cheap.

If you want this defense to stay fresh & finish off game  then  TE  like Barnidge is necessary.

Panthers also need to use Byrd & Samuel in the deep routes and stretch defenses out

Or we could just use the WR's more. KB and Funchess both proved that they can get open and make clutch catches yesterday.

You're not going to replace Olsen's role with any free agent. It's going to have to be with multiple players and KB, Funchess and Dickson looks like the most likely committee.

I'd be game with Armah assuming he learned his new position enough.

Answer: Neither

We need a FB regardless. Yesterday proved that.

Barnondge wasn't even in a camp. It would take him until Gregg is back to get in shape

Ed Dickson has lined up as a pass catching H-Back fairly often this season sooo
