Sign Wagner, Edmunds to WFT for Montez Sweat. Draft BPA. 3 Quote

SAME. It's almost too perfect, and we all know what it's like to be let down by the Bills FO (old habits die hard). 2 Quote
Virgil Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 Wagner should be on this team yesterday. Edmunds has zero big play ability. Get a 2nd for Edmunds and don’t look back 3 2 2 Quote

As I've said..........I would love that Edmunds for Sweat trade......... but Washington loses that cap exchange by over $10M as Sweat is just in year 4 of his deal...........and though Sweat has underwhelmed he is still a high ceiling pass rusher so he's probably worth more than a 2 time Pro Bowl LB who isn't nearly as good on tape as that sounds. Edmunds to Houston for Brandin Cooks is probably more realistic........two expiring contracts, approx same value. But maybe someone out there really values Edmunds' upside more than I think the tape indicates they should. Edited March 9, 2022 by BADOLBILZ 1 Quote

Chicken Boo Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 A guy like Bobby will probably play well into his 30s like London Fletcher. There's no way Beane and McDermott won't explore this. 1 Quote

Probably, because his reads in nickel are high to low and he isn’t going to have eyes in the backfield like Kuechly in a 4-3 can Quote

I’d be okay keeping Edmunds with Wagner. Perhaps Wagner helps Edmunds.

I know you are one of Edmunds' biggest apologists but he gets so many passes thrown in front of him where the RB is hung out to dry and never has the presence of mind to even punch the ball out while he's tackling a ball carrier who has had all of his momentum stopped by a late throw.......he's just a slow processor in a league where quick minds make the plays on the football in traffic. 3 Quote
Mango Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 I have taken a pretty frugal approach to this offseason. But I would mortgage a lot fo the future to land Wagner and Jones in the same offseason. 1 Quote

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 If you can trade Edmunds for a decent asset and upgrade to Wagner that would be amazing. I just don't see it happening. Also people need to stop acting like Edmunds is a liability. He's just not a playmaker. So upgrade if you can yes, but the hate has to stop. Quote
QCity Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 Been a huge fan of him since his college days. Hell of a player. Only knock is that he'll be 32. Brutal day for Seattle fans. Quote

sullim4 Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Git 'er done, Beane... this is what Wagner is famous for in the PNW... Stop freakin, call Beacon! Edited March 9, 2022 by sullim4 Quote

So upgrade if you can yes, but the hate has to stop. He's a liability when offenses exploit his slow processing. His instincts really haven't improved at all since entering the league. Mahomes regularly manipulates him with his eyes. A less athletic but more instinctual LB in Logan Wilson stays disciplined and does a better job taking away the middle of the field against the Chiefs, despite having quite a bit less range, because he doesn’t fall for the manipulation. I don't need a playmaker at MLB. I just need someone that can process the play as it's happening and react accordingly. Quote
