If you are in the "pay Edmunds" camp, how much do you have in mind?

With the cap going up substantially, I’m guessing his deal is in the higher range provided, likely spanning 4 years.

 

 

Now THATS a plan.

 

Trade the guy who they no longer have under contract. Revolutionary.

Franchise tag and trade, I feel like I’m talking to my wife today, explaining every little thing.

I am fine with franchising him and then presenting something in the 12-14 range

I also feel like I'm talking to your wife. He's on the franchise tag this year.

No it was 5th year option

Does he have to sign the franchise tender? If not, can’t trade a player not under contract. I could be wrong. 

[Mr. WEO]

I would offer him 4 more Edmunds threads and that's my absolute max

[Shortchaz]

I’m not even sure he’s old enough to work in New York, legally speaking 

[Victory Formation]

$11M/AAV

 

Otherwise I think we should just draft someone or sign a FA. 

[Maynard]

$17m/year for 34 years. He’ll only be 26 years old by then. 

[Putin]

He shouldn’t be making more then Milano but he will regardless where he plays ! 
of course it’s just my opinion 

[GunnerBill]

He isn't taking less than $17m per.

I'd love to get him for under $15M/yr but that is just wishful thinking.

 

I think his open market value is $18-20M/yr, so I'll be happy if he takes a team-friendly deal at like $16M/yr.

Expand  

 

can’t agree with that much on him.  Likely boxes out another year or two of Poyer and keeping Oliver, and getting FA OL help.

My take on this is his play much better this year. It just so happens to be a contract year. That is no coincidence. Should he be rewarded if his only motivation is money. Where was this play the years previous? I say let him walk. We can find another LB in the draft 

Expand  

I see what you’re saying. But the beauty about resigning him is we can then draft o line or another receiver. If we let him walk, we are going to instead spend draft capital on a LB instead of OL or WR. 
 

tremaine doesn’t seem like the type of guy that would cash it in after getting a payday. McD also loves good, reliable LBs and Tremaine is one of them

I had this thought and would like to agree with it. However, it’s also the first year where he’s had reliable and deep talent in front of him with Oliver, Jones, Settle, and Phillips. Not to mention Von Miller balling out with Groot improving. Star wasn’t doing Edmunds any favors these past few years, and were seeing that now. I think we’ve also seen the difference he makes with regards to other players pass defense. Edmunds shrinks zones, and he’s gonna get paid.

its cute that you laughed at my comment but right now that’s the majority leader in what people think he should get in his next contract. 

Expand  

 

I really really would like it if he took the Bills for $15....sadly I think that many other teams value him more than the poster here at TBD.  The dude is gonna get paid....here there somewhere.  UGH!

So little that he is irrelevant to the conversation. Edmunds and the current market are so far beyond what Milano, the minimalist, took that it makes any comparison invalid. Milano bucked the market and settled for $10M/yr which was low even then.

I was gonna say it really shows how much work been did there on that Milano contract

I really don’t think so. Edmonds really makes this defense go.

[Orlando Buffalo]

I believe if he hits the open market he gets right around $20 million a year from someone, he changes good defenses into great defenses. Chicago will go for him hard, as will others. Hopefully we can do a 5 year 15 million a year type deal.
