I mean, don't most starting LBers lead their position? It's not like you have 3 or 4 MLB's rotating in to rack up tackles.
Besides, Edmunds was always great at getting a hand or two on a guy for Poyer or Hyde or someone else to actually finish the play. He led the team twice in solo tackles. 2018 and 2021. CJ Spiller led the Bills in rushing twice.
Spiller and Edmunds have a few great things in common. Complete physical specimens, playing devalued positions, with such poor instincts sometimes that they play down to opponents that can't match their physical talent which leads to maddeningly inconsistent play and ultimately walking in FA after 5 years.
Oh and eventually the team that signs them will regret it in about 10 weeks, their FA contract will be laughed at in two years. and they will be cut and playing for peanuts in 3 years.
