however many lbs it was agreed that Avery needs to put on so that he won't get broken...that number of lbs could easily be cut in half with the addition of a guy like DE in the backfield

I watched him in the first couple of games last season and I don't remember him blocking much.  That might be why his playing time went south as the season went on.
Hot time in Kat town tonight.

I could see him as a 3rd down short yardage receiver that could break a long one.

You get him the ball in space by whatever means necessary and watch him score touchdowns

I think the MOD'S need to step up and use all of the gE advertising funds to land Edwards on a NIL deal instead of using it to buy SD's kid new bat's (1 Cold weather and 1 warm weather) every year and Pete a new boat.

Most correct take. He's the threat, the guy that can break one. Not sure he's the down by down grinder. But hell if you got a grinder, an of the top threat, and an in space threat you got a recipe for a defensive breaking team.

Just having both him and Avery in the backfield, defenses won't know how to act and it should create some favorable matchups

RPO's would be amazing.  DE also smoking man coverage slanting across the field would also be very fun to watch.  I would hope they would feed DE like Chiefs did with Tyreek plus KR/PR.

He was too small to do anything behind that garbage line they had.  As other's have said, he needs space.  They went with more power at RB as the season went on and, after they fired their OC, I think they used RBs to protect more.  He could be a really nice complimentary piece behind Giddens.  I would think it would probably be Giddens in the backfield two series to Edward's one.  Then Edwards could get some additional snaps out of the slot and maybe PR.

i like the idea, ty hill can’t be measurably taller than DE


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

He has limitations between the tackles but if he makes someone miss is space he's going to the house.

Meh, run him until he needs a breather and rinse and repeat. No limitations.

Right, let DJamer get the defense tired from his power runs, and then slip in Edwards and *Berman Impression* WHOOP he's to the house
