I understand people thinking and wanting Edmunds but I am not a fan of paying him the salary he will command as a FA. I know hes steady for us, but if Im giving $10M+ per year to a LB, they need to be a game changer. Has Edmunds proven that? Serious question. I know he is good and reliable but think about some of the great LB's out there, is he in their company? TJ Watt--$10M per year Mack--$14.6M/year Jaylon Smith--$938M/ year Devin White is at $8.1M this year but next year goes to $938M Is Edmunds comparable to these players? I dont think so. At least not IMO I would love it if the price was right but We signed Milano for $7.8M a year so I can imagine Edmunds wanting at least $10M a year Despite the fact that 3/4 of those guys are very different in style of play to Edmunds, they are all more valuable IMO. Maybe, he is a better Lb than Smith. Still, I think the way things are looking for contracts, 10M is not that far off. Im not a big fan of Edmunds, as much as I try to be, so I hope they are prudent with this, especially given how many deals they’ve shelled out recently 1
Adam727 Posted August 8, 2021 Posted August 8, 2021 I guess I'd go with Boettger if we could get him on a cheap ~2 year deal. Maybe save some money if he wins the starting job this year? The only other player I think I'd consider extending right now is Hughes. But Beane has already extended all the most important players IMO. I'm fine if he doesn't extend anyone else. I don't like the idea of extending Edmunds. I think Edmunds is a better player than some here give him credit for but I am not convinced he's worth $15-$20mil/year.
Jpsredemption Posted August 8, 2021 Posted August 8, 2021 The Edmunds talk is funny. What exactly has he done to warrant a monster contract? Don’t give me the potential argument anymore. That ship has sailed.
LeGOATski Posted August 8, 2021 Posted August 8, 2021 Edmunds is a two time pro bowler and it's not like he's just getting in because he's a household name... This is Edmund's year to prove he's worth a contract. If the D line is significantly improved, then he might have a monster year. One of my bold predictions is that he leads all LBs in INTs (top ten among all players).
TheBeaneBandit Posted August 8, 2021 Posted August 8, 2021 Nobody. Try and find a DT, CB, or TE first.

Edmunds will have to play out his 5th year option to get his 2nd contract. I think the Bills may want to see where this next season takes Edmunds, but I don't see why they would make him play out his 5th year option. This is his 4th season. Either he steps up, or they need to be looking for someone else.
