Highest graded defenders for Week 10 (Look who's 1st)


Gambit

Recommended Posts

Up until this year I've been a huge Tremain detractor, but despite being out of position at times during this season, I think he's finally starting to become a major difference maker in our defense.   I hope it has nothing to do with it being a contract year, but if he continues to play like this I'd be more than happy for the Bills to pay him.

 

His absence was readily apparent in the second half of the Vikings game.

He's spent most of his career playing like he had a length of #10 rebar jammed up his keister.

Last Sunday was by far the most conscientious I've ever seen him about dropping his hips and keeping them there throughout the play.

It's made an enormous difference in the quality of his play and if he keeps it up the Bills are going to have a difficult decision to make.

The flip flopping this place has with PFF is hilarious. 

Right. One day they will say Josh sucks and we will jump down their threats. But when they say Edmund’s is the best, all the sudden they are the best source. Comical really

Don’t include me in this. I’ve been an Edmunds fan from the jump, he single-handedly takes away the middle of the field. Everyone else got a taste of what happens when he’s out of the line up. He’s #1 on my list for a contract. Edmunds & Milano is a very strong linebacker core.

The Vikings were inside the 1 yard line on two different drives and walked away with 3 total points. The entire d needs to be recognized for giving us two shots to win. 

So we completely forget that the D allowed the Vikings to get down to the 1 yard line twice in the first place?

The decision is really a no brainer. MLB is the QB of the defense. It would be a shame to spend all these years developing him only for him to be a stud somewhere else. If it’s Ed Oliver or Edmunds I’m going with the latter. Could’ve resigned both if not for the Knox contract. I’m sympathetic to his situation, but all he’s had this year is the game winner and a few key 3rd down receptions.

Pretty sure I haven't ever mentioned PFF before. Just watching the game, it was pretty obvious he was playing a damn good game.

He dropped two Interceptions.  He at least got to the spot to make a pass break up but he had both balls hit his hands.  These were not last second reactions. He had a clean shot at the INT both times and failed.

PFF grade or no, I have done a total 180 on Edmunds this year and now want us to re-sign him. The defense clearly looks different without him. He's stopped making some of the head scratching plays. I don't mind that he doesn't make game changing turnovers, I'll take the consistency.

 

Who are you, and what have you done with @HappyDays?

Body of work of this year has been pretty good. He has some massive PBU’s and some good tackles.

 

It’s actually a shame that he’s closer to the top end of player that teams let walk. May end up being a situation where he’s gonna get too much as a FA

 

I agree and it's especially a shame that we prematurely gave Knox his contract pre-season because we otherwise could probably afford to extend Edmunds.  Not saying Knox is a bad player and not even basing this on his usage this year (I'm willing to give him a pass with his brother passing and being asked to block) but there was no way he was worth top 5 TE money. Also, he had just come off an inflated TD season, his leverage could not have been higher, should have waited. Beane has been a great GM, no denying that, but Knox over Edmunds will go down as a misstep.  Really wondering if Josh put some pressure on Beane there leading up to the season.

Same. And he has been making more big plays (knocking down or tipping passes) even if he isnt making the INTs. I dont know that we can afford him, but I have no concerns if Beane decides to pay him.

I never said he played perfect. And no, I don't think he'd be worth a gigantic contract. I more so posted this for the people who have wanted him benched for Dodson. Edmunds isn't elite but he's still our best option for the time being.
