I remember when Preston Brown led the league in tackles. He’s been pretty poop 💩 according to my bear fan friends. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7975 Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I don't think it was a wasted draft pick. He wasn't great but he wasn't terrible either and started here for his whole rookie contract. Definitely was not worth paying that money though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See ya- ... and will become a compensatory 3rd round pick next year because he played himself into a big $ contract. We need more wasted picks like this one. 2 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point people will just realize he is who he is and it’s not going to change. fwiw he’s not terrible. But definitely not worth what he’s making. Was t worth a day one draft pick either. I would disagree he wasn't worth a day one draft pick. The biggest plus of Edmunds is he has size few players do that allow for the potential of incredibly great plays to occur. The Miami playoff game deflected pass is an example of this. The flipside is his instincts have always been average and he could get caught out of position easily at times as the following week vs CIN showed. If your a GM I can 100% buying though on a guy like this who was super young with freakishly great physical tools. He became a good to at times very good pro bowl caliber LB, BUT he never reached the heights either I think you would have wanted if your paying that money and last year was the only season I would say he truly made some impact plays I can remember. By comparison Milano has been doing that since day 1 and I can literally go back from that time on those moments. For the money he is being paid it is that of an All Pro and I doubt he ever reaches that level or honestly last years level again especially now on a Bears defense that is less talented and far less put together then what he got in Buffalo. The pressure is now squarely on him to be the pillar or one of the top 2-3 pillars of that defense. But overall the Bills got a very solid 5 year player for not much financially and if you can consistently get that out of your draft picks that is pretty good. You can't sign everyone and the Bills made the right choice in the guy they paid at LB. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the player isn't worth a second contract, they aren't worth trading up in the first round for. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do think people are too easy on McD around here, I think there actually has been a fair amount of criticism for the resources that have been poured into the D without results when they could've gone to the offense. Too easy on McD? He’s now coached 100 games for the Bills and his 63 wins are the all time best in franchise history. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 He took the $ to play on the worst team in the NFL. We would never hear from him again if not for threads like this. He's completely irrelevant now. If $ is more important to him than winning then let him go. We wouldn't want someone like him anyways. It was pretty clear he was all about potential and he was never going to be that player he was projected to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyBills Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 1 hour ago, colin said: it was 100% right to let him walk, bernard looks like a good pick so far this season (so far, i am not sold he's our long term answer), but he was far from a bad or wasted pick. 5 years starting at MLB on a top D is way over expectation for even a 1st round pick. he's just simply not as good of a football player as he is of an athlete. No brainer. I appreciate what he did on his rookie deal though. Milano looks better than ever next to Bernard. Not sure it's for that reason but he looks phenomenal and Bernard is showing little to no drop off 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretty much played ad expected You think? 16th overall comes with higher expectations imo. I was disappointed with him. Considering his god given size and athleticism plus being the son of a solid nfl player, I was expecting him to create turnovers and have a nose for the ball. Forcing fumbles, interceptions, tipped passes, strip sacks etc. He was the complete opposite as he just doesn’t seem to have the instincts or an extra gear. He played very well in his contract year and did his family good. The bears FO is 💩 Worthy of an 11-12m contract imo 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
