Mike Edwards wants to be traded

If healthy I’m guessing he would have beat out Hamlin in the offseason, but McDermott basically never shuffles around the starting lineup once it’s been set unless due to injury. 
 

I’m kinda surprised they didn’t “platoon” safety to start the year like they did with some Oline positions in the past. Maybe they didn’t think he was far enough along, or maybe he just hasn’t been “process” oriented enough right from the start.

He's cooked. No speed left. He's been slowing down for a couple years and instincts and experience can only take you so far.

I agree we started to see it last year when he was playing in a system he knew with players he knew on instinct... he wasnt gonna get faster and a new system and new players werent gonna make him more instinctual. I think he is kinda done as a starter... may be a nice depth piece for a bit for someone...

I know McD has the habit of leaning on his guys but Hamlin has been playing very good, doubt he'll ever be elite but he has great tackling form , is always around the ball and rarely is out of position,  basically,  he's playing his 1/11th better than Edwards. I've seen no reason he should be on the bench
