He's been our best defensive end. He took a restructure which saved us money....and he lead our team in sacks. Sounds horrible.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one else has more than 4 sacks, so it's not saying anything big that he's the team leader. Obada and Epenesa have more QB his than him in their limited time, the dude is invisible on the field. He grades out poorly on PFF too, 63. Guy is horrible and will be very happy to see his overpaid butt gone next year. See ya! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy how Epenesa was a multiple healthy scratch but kept playing Addison. He was so horrible that he was a regularly on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Addison is a slightly above average DE who’s better against the pass than the run. The reason the Bills defense excels is not because any one player is a superstar (as evidenced by the lack of pro bowlers), but because all eleven are at least “solid.” Yes, even Edmunds. But imagine if we had someone in the front 7 who was feared? A Watt, or a Bosa, or Parsons. Oliver and Milano are the closest we’ve got, but a feared player would elevate this defense to an even higher level and I do believe you’d see less ho hum performances against the better offenses. With that said, the truth of the matter is there just aren’t any more dominating defenses in this passing game era. The Bills are #1, but would probably be middle of the pack if you were to transport this unit back to the 90s, or even early 2000s. Just have the expectation that it’s not on the defense for the Bills to win their first Super Bowl. It’s all on the Allen-led offense. If Allen climbs out of this rut he’s been in the past couple games and plays lights out in the postseason, I like our chances against any team.

I am not a Edmunds basher but even I don't compare him favorably to Urlacher. I know we will pay him to keep him but I hope we don't pay him more than Darius Leonard.

So if Addison is horrible, the rest of our DL is almost unplayable? Maybe we need to focus all offseason needs on the DL because we're going to need about 8 new DL for next year.

I'm talking 3rd and 3, he penetrates and fails to make the tackle. He is good. But he is not an impact LB. Wtf are you talking about?

Serviceable, but a bad return on investment. God I hate looking at players from a GM perspective.😒 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I’ve been saying this for years, I’ve never liked him. Only way it makes sense to keep him is if his $$$$ is low, which I don’t see happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna get into the edmunds stuff. You don’t need to feel good about what our OL did in the falcons game, but the Jets have legit talent on the DL. It doesn’t come through in their stats but I feel really good with how the OL handled the Jets DL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damj Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 The problem with Edmunds is that some team will probably throw stupid money at him, probably north of $15mil/year. I don't think he's worth that kind of money. That's why I'm saying they'll be stupid to re-sign him at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookie to run the defense on a super bowl contender? Fa? Who is an upgrade or gives you close to the same for less money?

I know we will pay him to keep him but I hope we don't pay him more than Darius Leonard. This is a fallacy. NO ONE is suggesting Edmunds would get Darius Leonard money. No one. IMO, the Bills love Edmunds and believe he is a key reason for why the Bills are a Top 3 defense. It seems certain the Bills will pick up Edmunds' 5th year and then very likely to extend him for around the Sportrac estimate: 5 years, $66,905,730 - or $13,381,146. Wouldn't be surprised if it's 5/$70. If the Bills want to replace him with a Free Agent, that's what it will cost (at least). For those of you who want to replace him with a rookie, tell us how that's not a huge gamble, especially with the Bills in the late rounds and with other much more pressing needs. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drought Bills thinking imo. Random player isnt the best best at his position. Let him walk because he wants too much money. Spend the next 3 months watching youtube videos to find his replacement. Maybe they draft the guy you want. Can complain its not the guy you wanted. Neither are an upgrade. Hey look that guy we let walk is on ESPN making plays. Why cant we just pay our own guys. Rinse and repeat. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, Edmunds certainly outperformed the first for years of his contract, and believe he will still be a bargain with the 5th year averaged in. I have no reason to believe Edmunds won't be as good in Year 5 and beyond, which would make an extension not only preferable but close to a necessity.
