BuffaloSol Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Any interest in bringing in Tre Edmund's brother in to replace Taiwan Jones. It's a minor roster move but, it could help with the development of Tre to have his older brother here. Also, it looks like he was moving to FB, which could make DiMarco expendable eventually.

It is much easier to GROW UP when you are no longer in the shadow of parents and older siblings. Personally, I do not want a LB on our team that would need his big brother here to help him feel secure... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdnlng Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Let's say the older brother doesn't play well and he has to be cut. Does anyone see where that might cause any problems or resentment from our middle linebacker? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that Jones is on this team... He is supposed to be a good special teamer but he struggles as a returner. I would rather let him go and let Marcus Murphy and Ray Ray McCloud handle his roles. Both displayed they are good special teamers in preseason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it can help in growth and development and sometimes it can hinder it. Considering their dad played NFL and three of his sons are NFL players I would be willing to take a flyer.

I was shocked he did make the team honestly, he doesn’t really bring anything to the table we couldn’t find elsewhere.

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) Well...we might be able to pull the 'old switcheroo' on Belichick if we had brothers on the same team. A fitting follow up to his losing his rookie punter that he tried to hide. 6 hours ago, KW95 said: wrong on the first part. and who cares about the other Edmunds.

dezertbill Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 He made his name on one play. Take away that 41 yard run, and he had 8 rushes for 7 yards. He did contribute on ST, but the Saints have a lot of young backs and he got caught up in a number games. Some will snatch him up or put him on PS. If it's the Bills, great. But I wouldn't do it because of family reasons. (Unless your Tim Murray and your name is Cal O'Reilly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre is short for Tremaine (which we knew); his brother is Ferrell Edmunds III - hence the "Trey" moniker. I guess FE3 didn't appeal to him.
