TakeYouToTasker Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Love this signing. Im hoping this allows them to kick Edmunds outside where I believe he’d be a generational talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Nice little signing by McD, replaces Lorax at OLB and fills a potential hole at OLB/MLB. Love what they are doing this off-season for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbuff Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Am I the only who believes that Edmunds could be a monster if he was used as an edge rusher more? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it's a good chance now that Edmunds has some age and experience he will start to be moved around a lot more this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. But probably not, IMO. Edmunds plays the Luke Kuechly role in McD's scheme and I don't ever remember him moving Kuechly around like that for the Panthers. I think Sean prioritizes simplicity and repeatability more than confusing the other team (as well as his own)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUSE Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I told you the Bills would sign him... Not really but I thought I would take some credit along with the rest of the board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st year Edmunds was learning, last year (especially the 2nd half of the season) he was getting some rope. I don't think the scheme will change much but I expect more "options" with Edmunds this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 No disrespect to Lorenzo Alexander but I believe AJ Klein is an upgrade at this point. Should help us against the New England Patriots and Tennessee Titans of the league. He should be a good starter for us. Could probably play inside if Edmunds got injured. Good run stuffer, decent athleticism to the point where I don’t think he’d be a huge liability in coverage. Solid signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locomark Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I didn't know Klein plays all 3 LB slots. They really love their position flexibility don't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Klein's contract is in at Spotrac. 2020 Cap Hit of 6 million with a 6.6 Dead Cap hit.
