I agree about youth equating to expected inconsistency, but Edmunds would thrive on the outside. It is a lot easier to find a serviceable MLB with good instincts than it is to find a freak like Edmunds who could be unleashed as an outside backer/pass rusher if we filled that MLB spot with someone else. It would afford McD a ton of flexibility which we know he likes.
It all depends on what happens in FA, but if Devin White is there at 9, he could be the pick.
