PaoloBillsFanFromItaly Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Tremaine played well, that's a shame he did not pick that ball though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcash Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 The light bulb for Tremaine Edmund's has officially turned on. Since he has come back against the Pat's he has played at a meteoric risen level that Josh Allen displayed in year 3. His instincts are being displayed at every moment, he is punishing people when he hits them with full confidence, he is beating blockers to the spot, he is shedding tackles better than ive ever seen him. His eyes are glued in the backfield. It's like they downloaded instincts into his brain and he is playing downhill with full confidence and is one scary mf right now. I am so happy to see this dude coming on and he is not looking back. I didn't know if he would get to this level but he has arrived. And he's not looking back. Big baller fkin Beane. This is like the middle linebacker version of bad things man. I am so fking pumped and I hope to hell we can re-ink this guy next year. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. 👆 And he's also playing with his hips lower in coverage which has also really improved his overall game. The comparison to Allen's huge single season leap forward is one I hadn't considered but might be apt. When the season started I don't think the Bills had any real intention of paying him big bucks for what he brought to the field, but damn if he hasn't put Beane in a much more difficult spot now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’m not so sure pointing to the stats of arguably the greatest TE of all time catching passes from Mahommes is the correct way to lay into Edmunds. Without looking, I’d assume kelce’s numbers are excellent against almost every team. Some people just need to be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year's cap will be low as a lot of cash will go to signing bonus. I'm thinking it will be 5 years somewhere around $70M ($14M per year). 2023 cap hit around $8M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we can fit him into the (financial) scheme anyway. Find a baller with speed in the draft and replace him for peanuts. There are a lot of good LBs running around this country.

It would be silly except I hammer Josh for his mistakes too. Unlike Edmunds however he makes massive plays that greatly impact the team and is maybe the best player int he league when he's firing on all cylinders. Edmunds is an invisible player who at his absolute best still is the 2nd best linebacker on his own team. I understand your argument, it just isn't very sound.

DaggersEOD Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Man he’s really turned it around this year. I’ve been pretty down on TE to this point but I’ll admit, he won me over. The way I’ve grown to understand this D, it requires a space eating plug/DT(s) in the middle and a MLB capable of taking away the middle of the field. The CB’s, S’s and to some extent the DEs are all system players. Put me in the Must Sign camp for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) It's a bad indicator when a MLB in this defense has not forced or recovered a fumble in his (EDIT: last) 56 games. There's definitely improvement, but is it worth a multi-year contract paying 10M per? You can't justify that cost at a position which even in McD's scheme. Especially when the defense already has 3 other guys getting paid that or more with their cap challenges they'll fae this off-season.

billsfan89 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Edumonds has had such a great season and at 24 years old I am inclined to give him a big contract offer over Poyer.

This isn't how this D is supposed to function, that's why they drafted undersized, freakishly athletic Ed Oliver. The size up on the D Line was to make up for what Edmunds lacks. Aside from everyone's opinions, I think it's telling that he didn't get an extension in the offseason. Like Phillips and Lawson, he will be allowed to test the market. And none of those positions you rattled off at the end are system anything. Tre is a top 5 corner when healthy, Poyer is the best free safety in the league and Beane paid a 100 million to get Von Miller... Edmunds isn't in that camp, I don't care how many fan votes he gets.

I'm hoping that Poyer and Beane can come to an agreement for a 1-year deal in the offseason. $11M with $9M or so guaranteed and Beane pushes a chunk out with a void year. Jordan still can find a team to pay him some coin in 2024. He can't miss the chance to keep this thing going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely he'll be looking for around $15 mil, Spotrac places him at $14.2 mil. Prior to this year not likely he'd have got that, now he likely may get $15 particularly when you factor in year to year increases. Edmunds may not have the stats to back up it, but his abilities are vital to Mc'D's scheme so if you don't resign him, you better find a clone to him particularly around size and speed.

colin Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 our FO is gonna have to figure who can be replaced at a greater value (cost/picks) than who we have. poy, edmunds, and gotta think about oliver and gabe davis coming up too. given we threw money at von, and we play so many dl, i think they won't sign oliver to the big contract he will likely command. i suspect poyer will get more somewhere else and they don't want to pay out for an older db, so they more or less have to keep tremaine to keep some continuity in the gut fo the d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benderbender Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Edmunds has only to read the many threads praising him to realize he can go elsewhere for almost 20.

Mostly people are simply noticing what he does in coverage more now for some reason - maybe injuries to so many starters. Pretty mind boggling how people didn't see this prior to this year and his importance in the Bills pass defense schemes. Kinda of reminds me of the scene in Field of Dreams where they are sitting in the stands watching the game and the Brother keeps saying they are crazy and they are seeing all these made up people until Doc Graham comes off the field to save the little girl from choking, then he turns with astonishment and says "Where did all these people come from??"

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I like Edmunds but I’m not paying him that much more than Moreno. He’s good in coverage and a solid tackling LB. If he had any pass rush moves I would say he’s in the top 10. Not work it to break the bank on him when there is a very big group of college LB’ers that can do the same thing.

DapperCam Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Edmunds is really hard to judge for an average fan. He seems to never make a big play (sack, turnover, tackle for loss, pass defended). On the other hand the defense seems to take a step back when he isn’t out there. His role in McDermott’s defense seems to be to use his speed and size to lock down the middle of the field in coverage and then fly to the ball for support in running plays and short passing plays. I wouldn’t give him a big pay day and think what he brings can be replaced for cheaper than he’s going to get. Use that cap on the offense!
