David Clowney waived, yet Armanti makes the team again?

[Ivan The Awesome]

Gave up a 2nd round pick for the guy. Much like Everette Brown, he will get all the chances in the world to improve. And much like EB if he doesn't he will get cut.

Chillax.

Also, if you dismiss his improvement this season, I don't know what to tell you man. The guy improved. He's actually Catching Punts and Passes now. Last year, he didn't do squat.

I don't "love" David Clowney, don't try to muddy my argument. I'm simply saying that he was CLEARLY better than Armanti Edwards was. That's all.

Well if that's your argument, why is Brandon Lafell on the team? He didn't do much in the preseason either,

[Jackofalltrades]

AE got separation consistently, career WR Clowney didn't.

[top dawg]

Steve Smith is Smitty. Armanti is Mitty.

David Clowney looks and feels like an NFL receiver. He isn't extremely awkward when running his routes or catching passes in traffic like Armanti Edwards is. You at least have a chance of Clowney catching a pass when there's a defender within a couple of yards of him unlike Armanti Edwards. Armanti ONLY can catch passes when he's nearly wide open.

And Clowney is never wide open and he's been a wide receiver his entire football career.

I can only say one thing, Don't hate Edwards because we gave up a lot to get him instead hate Hurney for being a dumb @$$ and making the dumbest trade in panthers history.

I absolutely don't hate Armanti Edwards. He was in an impossible situation. It would have been like if Marty Hurney had given up a 2nd rounder for Nick Hayden. It wouldn't have been Nick Hayden's fault for not playing like a 2nd or 3rd rounder, nobody in the league graded him that highly. It would have been Marty Hurney's fault. Likewise, no other team with an intelligent GM had Armanti graded that highly. It was Hurney's fault for drafting him and trading for him. I absolutely want Armanti Edwards to succeed and I like App State and their fans quite a bit. He is just not showing me anything on the field to make me justify his presence on this team.

[Reapuh]

I just want to know how he looked better than Armanti..practice?..:sosp:

Plenty of players look good in practice and never perform in games, maybe that's why he can't stay on a team.

Armanti was 3rd in receiving in preseason with 6 catches for 76 yards on our team.

Clowney 3 for 50 and that TD.

Not to mention AE looked good on PR besides that one muff.

[PantherBrew]

I remember you threw a fit about us drafting Armanti instead of Mardy Gilyard.

Hows he doing, btw?

[savage]

Drafting Cam Newton eliminated the need for any wildcat specialist. Cam Newton is the ultimate wildcat.

then why do we run an offense with Armanti behind center in training camp?

Glad we agree. Hurney made a retarded decision. The question is why has Hurney made these bad decisions the past few years? it started with Brown and hopefully ended with Edwards. I hope Edwards can eventually become a good WR but the odds are against him. The reason why I am so made about the way we drafted him was because we didn't have to give up anything if we would have just waited till the 6th or 7th round. We could of drafted a great DT or CB in this draft if we didn't trade and now what do we have? On top of the trade Hurney knew we was going to have a bad season because he cut all of our vets and didn't sign any players. He knew that second round pick would be in the top of the round. Dumb decisions are biting us in the @$$

Armanti preseason 2010: 9 catches for 60 yards, 1 fumble

Armanti preseason 2011: 6 catches for 76 yards (36 of which came on one play), 1 fumble

[rodeo]

Edwards is a better player than Clowney at this point.

[rodeo]

I wonder if him getting cut has anything to do with constantly posting porn in his twitter feed :D

[Sam Mills Fan]

Well if that's your argument, why is Brandon Lafell on the team? He didn't do much in the preseason either,

What did we give up for LaFell? LaFell sucks too, but I expect more from Armanti Edwards because of what we gave up for him.
