RobbRiddick Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 One thing about mcd and Beane, they are very good at taking later round defensive players and turning them into solid or very good contributors (all pro in Milanos case). I say from now on draft offense rounds 1-4 and defense after 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, not a fan of the Bills, but he didn't even mention the game Bernard or the Bills D in general. I was worried they were going to choose Garrett.

The Frankish Reich Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 What a find - obviously they liked him a lot, but I think everyone has to admit that we never thought he'd be this level of a playmaker. It really does transform the defense! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted September 27, 2023 Author Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) 23 minutes ago, TheBrownBear said: But what about all the passes that were never thrown because of Terrell's tremendous wingspan? Where are those in your precious statistics? (I'm joking BTW) Cover1 says he disrupts lanes in a different way, because his instincts and athleticism put him in the right position where Edmunds usually did not and he relied on his athleticism to recover.

Saying Edmunds should’ve been used the way Bernard is used. And people wonder why the Edmunds threads won’t die, it’s constant conversation. I mean they are being used differently. We played a way more 2 under Frazier where Edmunds was a true zone Tampa 2 dropper. This year under McDermott we're primarily playing 1 and 3 with a little 6 rolled in and we're pattern matching more than we ever have in the past (playing more man principles out of our zone coverages). 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying Edmunds should’ve been used the way Bernard is used. And people wonder why the Edmunds threads won’t die, it’s constant conversation. It is true. Edmunds blitzed 18 times all last season. Bernard has already blitzed 7 in 3 games. The way Edmunds was used did impact the number of splashy plays he made. Honestly he made more of those plays early in his career when he had less responsibility. You can watch some of the earlier film on him and he is all of the field when they have him blitzing, etc. Then he became a guy that just manned the middle of the field and sometimes dropped back with the safeties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think those differences lend credence to why Bernard has made more impact plays? Or is it the players themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying Edmunds should’ve been used the way Bernard is used. And people wonder why the Edmunds threads won’t die, it’s constant conversation. It IS a different defense - Edmunds job was to take away a large part of area defending from throws. Just as some CBs are not thrown at because the risk of interceptions / passes defended and do not show up on stats unless stats comparing where throws are tried these type of stats do not show up. Edmunds game did not evolve and Bills cap was tight so Bills choose to not value it as much as Bears did. It is up to their defense coordinator to determine what to do with such a LB with very large wingspan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
