Although a report indicated Tremaine Edmundswas drawing trade interest, the Bears will not end up unloading this contract as they will D.J. Moore‘s. Chicago will release Edmunds, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

Don't care, flame me if you want, but if the bottom line is at the right price, I'd take him back..

[KentuckyBillsFan]

No

[wppete]

Yeah try and get Tremaine in a cheap contract to come back.

I don't think he's going to get another huge contract. As a FA I'd be happy to get him back for an average LB salary. 

 

He's not special but he's consistent and has some range.

Sign him. 17 years old. 29 years experience. Can play in a 34 role player.

The real question was there actually another bidder for Moore as he was a another contract they were trying to unload.

 

or was Beane bidding against himself.

There was talk about the Pats being interested.

Gotta kick the tires. Good dude. Never any issues. Is he a fit and is the price right?

[NoSaint]

Demario Davis is the drum I’ll continue to beat 

 

he’s played more years than Tremaine’s been alive

Bring him home, Beane.

[MrEpsYtown]

Be kinda cool if he followed Matt Eberflus to SF and lined up next to Fred Warner

[KingBoots8]

Not opposed for the right price. I have other FA LBs I’d prefer but we could do way worse

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

Man, can’t believe the Bears did him dirty like this. Just saw this photo of him leaving the Bears facility and it’s rough to watch given his age.

Edmunds at MLB and Benford at WLB would be solid...

 

Seriously, our OLBs likely will offer nothing in pass coverage. We need very good coverage ILBs with range.

He’d likely still be relied upon to disrupt passing lanes in the middle of the field, but how do y’all see his role in Leonard’s D? Could he be  more of a pass rusher?

  The two teams must’ve discussed him during the Moore trade talks so maybe the Bills aren’t interested? I guess they could be on a vet minimum contract though.

Does he fit a 3-4 scheme? I don’t hate Tremaine he’s a solid player and if he’s cheap I wouldn’t hate brining him back. Overall I just question if he would be a scheme fit

I think he's a brilliant fit, honestly. More Weakside ILB than Middle, but he can play the middle. Everyone always said he's best in an attacking style defense, I think his size and athleticism would benefit this defense greatly. 
 

He isn't going cheap though. He isn't coming off a bad season, Bears just need cap room. 
 

I think I'd be more shocked if Beane didn't strongly explore this.

Moving to a 4-3 and for the right price he would be great. But as you say cost is key component.

We let him go freely,and the Bears got zero takers and are cutting him.

 

Hard Pass.
