The Armanti Question

Unread post by firemoose » Thu Jan 03, 2013 11:09 pm

Here is a link to a story in the CO from this evening. When I read it it had two comments. The real haters haven't found it yet. I'll bet the number climbs much higher.

I hope he gets a chance somewhere, hopefully before Panthers camp so as not to lose another year. If they aren't going to keep him then at least give him a chance to be picked up somewhere else in time to learn some of the playbook or go north and play at his true position.

Whatever comments were on the article have now been removed, and it appears that they have shut down the ability to comment alltogether (unless that's a product of my wonderfully out-of-date browser on my work computer).
Give 'em hell!

Scott Fowler is a parasite just like the guy that calls himself Zod on the huddle message board. Whenever they need a little boost they post something about Armanti and sit back to watch the ensuing fireworks.

Exactly. However Scott in the hard copy once gave us a few tidbits of kudos.

AE in Charlotte has run into the football version of Murphy's Law......

Rivera said last year that because Foxy didn't develop him the first year, he considered 2012 AE's second year. Then he is behind one of the best WR's in the NFL. He seems to have found a niche as a PR...when he gets blocking. I would love to see him behind center again as I think he could run an NFL offense.

I have wondered if Bellyache is still interested in AE. I think Armanti would thrive in that system, plus throw in a wildcat wrinkle which the Pats do not currently have.

AE will find a place to land in the NFL. When it was thought that Gettis' return would end AE's Panther career scouts from a dozen NFL teasm came to watch him as did two CFL teams.

Despite all of the flack from the numb nuts from Charlotte, Armanti does have NFL talent.Iit just has not been developed

The Greensboro paper ran the article with a nice large picture in the Sunday paper this morning.

I had to reload but the comments are there. I did not read all, skimmed most. A few neg comments but most positive at the time I read them. Many comments suggest AE should be the listed 3rd string QB and could be used in the wildcat scheme that would be a true pass or run threat.

Did he also write an article about Everett Brown, a DE the Cats traded a first rounder for and he never did anything. AE will be somewhere next year no doubt.

The Panthers have a big investment in AE...a traded early-round draft pick, a signing bonus, three years of salary and a lot of practice Instruction. Methinks they'll keep him as a known quantity with positive desire and work ethic or trade him to another NFL team to recoup some of that investment. He'll be on an NFL roster when the '13 season kicks off.
