Dwan Edwards - Defensive MVP


Argus Plexus

Recommended Posts

That's right, haters. While you've been drinking Haterade, the better half of the Edwards Wall has been balling out on his way to a career year. In only three games he has tallied up 13 tackles, 9 being solo with 4 assists, along with 3.5 sacks (A career season high.) and one forced fumble. Amidst all the Fire Hurney talk, we must give props where it is due for a great pickup. This man is having a breakout year only three games into the season.

Thoughts?

Good for him, but he sucks in run support, and I'm not talking about making tackles 2 to 5 yards down field either.

I can't wait to we get Neblett back actually.

He is the best lineman on the team right now. No other player has more sacks, and no other lineman has more tackles. He has been at least good enough.

Who's hating? I can think of dozens of fans including myself that have already claimed he is our best defensive player thus far.

And there has already been a thread.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
