‘For all the physical gifts Edmunds has been blessed with, there is still a lingering sense the 6-foot-5, 250-pounder hasn’t quite lived up to his first-round draft status. He led the Bills with 108 tackles in the regular season, but that’s to be expected of a middle linebacker. If we define big plays as sacks, interceptions, forced fumbles or recoveries, passes defensed and tackles for loss, Edmunds combined to make just 12 such plays. Seven players on the defense had that many or more. That’s a category that ideally Edmunds leads every year, and he didn’t come close. That’s something Beane will have to weigh when he considers a possible extension offer.’
