Tremaine "lost in the wash" Edmunds

[Sharky7337]

Is he really as bad as he looks to me?

 

What do you guys think as it's now another year starting up -- today he did not impress.

 

Just doesn't seem to have instincts still and gets pushed around.

 

I know we sometimes have bashed good players like this -- aka Gilmore.

How about, “This poll blows”?

I will just say your second part is 100% unnecessary as the Bills have already picked up his option this summer.

 

He is on the team this year and next barring a trade.

 

We will see how the coaches react, but they seem to like what they get from him in this defense - even if fans don’t.

You can still have an opinion on if we should or shouldn't have. It doesn't invalidate a  poll.

Athletically Tremaine has all the tools to be a great LB. Unfortunately he lacks all the instinctual traits to play MLB. As we all saw today for the umpteen time he chooses terrible gaps to attack, and simply gets swept down the river. I could tolerate him on a smaller contract playing outside but I'm afraid he's destined for another team after 2022. On a side note Andre Smith looks amazing.

🤦‍♂️

I mean I feel like they either feel like he's doing his job / role adequately enough but I can't remember a game changing play he has made.

Edmunds is only 23 and played last year with a shoulder injury, while playing without a zero technique DT as Star opted out and Harry rushed back from the ACL.  This is a prove it year for him for sure, no more excuses.

Agree. And if he's being tasked with controlling specific gaps etc I can see how these things can look bad when he's doing what he should do.

 

Unless star was sand bagging today though, it doesn't look like it will be a whole lot different but it's only pre season

How about constructive choices?

Make your own poll and thread then. It seems like the two most plausible options to me.

Would I have picked up the option? Yes I would have to see if he can be that guy still. He’s only 23. Would I give him a monster extension? The answer is no

Ya its so tough because would our defense be worse without him? Most likely!

 

But will he make that Darius Leonard type impact ever? Uncertain 

[BillsLux]

I was disappointed when they picket up his option.  He appears to be a very likeable person, but he can NOT get off a block.

 

For years now, we've been drinking the juice, BUT he does not pass view test.  We're not dreaming this up.  He doesn't look like Milano out there.

Added a third question 

[Malazan]

On days where I am feeling depressed and want attention, it's really nice to know that Edmunds is there for me so I can make a thread on him and get attention

Thanks for adding no value to the discussion. But you did get yourself some attention.

Well said. That's the way I feel. Unless he flips a major switch this year, the only path I see him staying is moving outside on a smaller $ deal.
