So nyjunc you really think Edwards is a great WO..IMO Cotch is better than him
Do I think he's great? absolutely not. I think he had 1 great season and he has attitude problems that have taking his career down the wrong path. I do know talent wise he's only behind Moss and TO in the div, he's only 26 and a change of scenery can help certain players. Cotch is better than him now but Cotch has never been as good as Braylon was in 2007.
You can't really think Edwards is going to help you that much this week or this year for that matter. If you do I wish I lived in your world. It takes time for a QB and WR to develop a relationship. I will give you that it will happen, but probably not for 3-4 weeks. It is then the middle of the season. So you are telling me you are happy that your FO decided to trade a 3rd and 5th round draft choice, your best special teams player and your #2 receiver for a player who may honestly be able to help you for at most 8 weeks (if no CBA is reached because your GM already said a contract extension won't be offered).
Also, there is no way you are anywhere near a SB calliber team. You don't have the QB or the running game. I am not saying we have a SB team but lets be clear a spade is a spade and you don't have a SB calliber team.
He will help even if it is just as a decoy b/c D's will have to now worry about Cotch, Edwards and Keller which will help open up the ground game.
Last year we had one of the best running games in the league, so far it hasn't been great but we are only 4 weeks in. We have very good backs and a very good OL. Our running game will be fine but I'd agree it would be difficult to win a SB w/ a rookie QB but there has to be a first time for everything. I'm not thinking SB though I'm just worried about getting to 5-1 and we did increase the talent level on our team today so I'm happy about that.
