ninjapirate Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 There we go not a bad pick up. He actually wasn't bad last year like Neal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACO Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 He wasn't as bad but he also not good. But I get they need to fill the needs. They totally going to draft one because aint no way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They totally going to draft one because aint no way. They should draft one for sure. This at least makes a palatable starting pair with Blankenship. Not a great one though.

Jroc04 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 He’s a totally reliable piece. I’m not expecting any sort of pro bowl year. But solid. He was on a trash Pitt team defensively. I guess we’ll see if he was a problem or not. I’m good with him starting though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a great one though. Yeah, glad it won’t be a forced pick though. Some interesting safeties round 2-4, grab one if that’s how the board falls. Kinda like RB. Though with RB you’ll be able to get serviceable guys in FA later or UDFAs to pair with Penny/Gainwell/Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiltman Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 just seeing the DBs in the frame of the shot pre play will be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddox can get after it when let off the leash. The Neal signing could be a good indication of that. Not that I think he’s been some pass rusher at all in his career but someone with some speed that can close a gap quickly in a blitz.

EagleBlueDon Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Not exactly who I wanted at safety but could be worse. I suppose there's something to be said about him starting for like 4 straight years in Pittsburgh as well as last year being his best year where he actually graded out pretty well by PFF.

EagleBlueDon Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 His PFF grades have gone since 2018: 63.7, 63.6, 70.9, 60.1, 69.1. Which honestly is a better set of grades I thought he'd have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesPeteC Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I feel like Edmunds and Blankenship are pretty similar. Still not a rangy guy back there at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmunds is a solid safety but I don't think him and Blankenship preclude them from pursuing an impact safety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the missing piece and Edmunds start .. pushing Blankenship back to the bench with Evans. That would be a sweet room if the missing piece is as great as we're hoping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably signed Edmunds and told him he has a great chance to start. Need to see numbers. I doubt they make a big move for a safety they might draft one on day 2/3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleBlueDon Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I'm trying to think of someone who we could compare Edmunds to who has played for the Eagles? Starter for 5 years at a solid yet unspectacular level of play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
