TakeYouToTasker Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I think Edmunds could be a generational talent as a Sam, but think he’s a square peg in a round hole at the Mike. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Just needs a big guy in front of him to keep him clean. You can run right at him but he is great in pursuit and getting better in pass defense too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherlock Holmes Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 2 hours ago, KOKO NFL said: I've heard all the talk that our second year MLB is a physical freak with size and speed. My eyes, however, tell me he's not tough or instinctive enough to be a good MLB, let alone a great one. IMO Beane and McDermott need to take a serious look at this position in the off season and upgrade. Perhaps Edmonds is better suited for OLB? Fans can speculate but only the coaching staff can make an educated guess. So... is Tremaine Edmunds the answer at MLB? No, because Luke Kuechly is... Edmunds and Milano at OLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Boo Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 He's out of position. That's on the coaches. I've said twice already and I'll keep repeating it. On a Belichick coached team, Edmunds would be in a Vrabel/Ninkovich role, wreaking havoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Tre is a soft player. He’s insanely athletic and the instincts are mainly there but he’s weak and soft and doesn’t like getting dirty. Let him chase QBs. Enough of this crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayoffsPlease Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 As I understand it, Edmunhds is the first MLB in NFL history to play before going through puberty. By the time Tom Brady retires in 2029, I think Edmunds will be firing on all cylinders every play in every game. We must be patient. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Like most MLBs Edmunds needs our DTs to absorb blockers to allow him to get to the runner. He he is going to get stronger and better with age and experience. We lost, they ran on us, we ran into an angry team that is better than us. Now is not the time to quit and assign blame. Now is the time to learn and get better. Edited October 28, 2019 by Bob in STL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true....he's a fish out of water in the middle. Constantly getting lost in the wash. And no this isn't the first time this has happened. Maybe because of his age he'll get better but my gut says he'd be so much better in the SAM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the mental aspect that is struggling. Yes right, most 20 year olds just jump right in and make the Pro Bowl at MLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I saw him on at least 3 running plays today running unblocked towards the los without any regard for where the ball carrier was going. In all 3 cases, he wasn’t anywhere near where the play was going, and just ended up in a mess of OL and DL. I’d be shocked if come training camp next season, he is not moved to OLB.

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I'm not so sure about Tremaine, but he is still young and growing into his body. I kind of would like to see him slip over to OLB in Lorax place next year and bring in Bobby Wagner in FA. That would be my big spend and make this D killer elite. With Horrible Harry back and everyone in the system another year, I think we'd finally challenge NE. We just need Josh to develop and spend the rest keeping the Oline in place and getting a stud RB and WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket94 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Edmunds should be moved outside next year. The Bills need a new MLB. I would grab Leonard Williams as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Coot Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 The Eagles offense run plays designed with lots of distraction. I can see a second year man getting confused out there. I wouldn't judge Edmunds based just on the eagles game. That said, there's no question that he needs to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddiegoofball Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I feel like if Edmunds isn't reading the plays better/is more consistent by years' end, some consideration should be given to moving him to the SAM. The guy is still a physical freak and has a lot of talent. He's good enough to be on the field, for sure. But is he a MIKE? I'm not sure yet. He has gotten better, but he needs to take another step. I'm willing to give him 2 full seasons to figure it out, especially considering how young he was when he came into the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's started 23 NFL games now, played in another 8 preseason NFL games and been part of 2 NFL training camps and he still looks lost. It really needs to be addressed that maybe he isn't the answer at MLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
