BuffaloSol Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Any interest in bringing in Tre Edmund's brother in to replace Taiwan Jones. It's a minor roster move but, it could help with the development of Tre to have his older brother here. Also, it looks like he was moving to FB, which could make DiMarco expendable eventually.

CDogg20 Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Special teams play. Taiwan only made the team because he’s good on special teams.

It is much easier to GROW UP when you are no longer in the shadow of parents and older siblings. Personally, I do not want a LB on our team that would need his big brother here to help him feel secure... 2
3rdnlng Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 Let's say the older brother doesn't play well and he has to be cut. Does anyone see where that might cause any problems or resentment from our middle linebacker? 3

I hate that Jones is on this team... He is supposed to be a good special teamer but he struggles as a returner. I would rather let him go and let Marcus Murphy and Ray Ray McCloud handle his roles. Both displayed they are good special teamers in preseason. 1

Sometimes it can help in growth and development and sometimes it can hinder it. Considering their dad played NFL and three of his sons are NFL players I would be willing to take a flyer.

I was shocked he did make the team honestly, he doesn’t really bring anything to the table we couldn’t find elsewhere. But I guess i’ll respect the process

He is very fast and one of the gunners on punts. 1
Beast Posted September 4, 2018 Posted September 4, 2018 Maybe there are front office positions that will open and we can hire his Mom to look out for her son....to make him feel comfortable. 1
