Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Welcome Chase Edmonds!
An absolute smash signing, especially so cheap. I'm a big Edmonds fan. I just love the way he runs, he has a great nose for the first down and fights to it every play. Really understands the concept of every inch. He sometimes reminds me of former Bucs legend Arrelious Benn. That's right.
I can tell you one thing about the kind of guys we are bringing in, they are competitors.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Fantastic signing. Quintessential RB#2 for pennies.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
He was terrible on two different teams last year, that seems to be what we are going after on offense in FA.

Smash signing? LOL! Don’t be like @Snake
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
In 70 career games, Chase Edmonds has only two 100-yard performances. Dude's per game averages throughout his career come out to 5.7 rushing attempts per game for 25.6 yards, catching an average of two balls a game for another 15 yards. He will score a touchdown about every four games.
Sure, his contract is worth about a million, but the Bucs would only have $150k in dead cap if he's cut.
I see this as a third-down depth signing, nothing more, with a moderate chance of not making it out of training camp.
But welcome to the team, Chase. Hope ya prove me wrong.

Being broke will have consequences on depth.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Familiar with the guy from fantasy football and feel like that's always been his role, just a consistent #2 RB.Cheb wrote: ↑Thu Mar 16, 2023 2:04 pm In 70 career games, Chase Edmonds has only two 100-yard performances.

White is our guy and Edmonds will spell him on occasion.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
I think the big story is that Rachaad White is gonna be the man here. Edmonds is mostly a JAG, but does fill a need.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
This signing tells us nothing. Fournier was relevant and Gio most likely won't be re-signed. There were 2 RBs under contract, White & Vaughn. This guy Edmonds is an additional body. I expect we'll target RB pretty early in the draft. Maybe Robinson.
Most hated man in America.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
I’ll be pretty shocked if we end up with Robinson. For one I think he’ll be long gone by 19, as well I think the writing on the wall is clear that Rachaad White is the man here.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Arizona didn’t want him…Miami didn’t want him…Denver didn’t want him….but hey, we’ll take him.
Doubt he makes the final 53-man roster.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
We have limited funds, I don’t think we just flushed some of them down the toilet. I think the idea is to simply add Edmonds as a vet min guy as depth and that’s what he’ll be.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Good. I don't want to waste a 1st round pick on a RB. Ever.real bucs fan wrote: ↑Thu Mar 16, 2023 3:02 pmI’ll be pretty shocked if we end up with Robinson. For one I think he’ll be long gone by 19, as well I think the writing on the wall is clear that Rachaad White is the man here.
Don't tread on me
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Like almost all JL's FA signing I don't think this tips our hand any which way, just shores up the bottom. We could easily still go Bijan without missing a beat. But should we not, I feel a lot better going into the year with Edmonds as our #2.

Yall remember Charles Sims, right. Yea, pretty much this.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
He's an NPC RB that's just there for the roster numbers game. If we go big on RB in the draft he's probably cut immediately.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
I'm an Edmonds fan. Love the way he runs and carried him on a lot of FF teams because of it. JL does these kinds of moves all the time, we've all said the phrase "now we're not pigeonholed for the draft" at some point. Some of you are determined to make any and every move a dumb one.
We get it Mary Jane, three playoff appearances has you in withdrawal. Itching to clean house like the old days, thirsting for Caleb hard. But you're going to have to get over it. We're about to go for the most back to back years in the playoffs in franchise history. Buckle up buttercup.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
An "elite 3rd RB". Don't think I've ever heard of someone refer to themself as an elite bench warmer.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
From the article: "I know I can be an elite third running back in this league, and I'm going be one of those guys where I'm a big-time mismatch with linebackers coming out of the backfield, and I'm eager to prove them wrong."
Maybe he meant third down? Imma give him the benefit of a doubt on that one.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
Even still he'd be calling himself an "elite" role player.Cheb wrote: ↑Mon Apr 10, 2023 6:15 pmFrom the article: "I know I can be an elite third running back in this league, and I'm going be one of those guys where I'm a big-time mismatch with linebackers coming out of the backfield, and I'm eager to prove them wrong."

That word gets thrown around too much.

Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
He obviously meant 3rd down back. Anyway, just posting an article because I was bored. I'm hopeful White gets a chance to be the guy and we don't spend an early pick at the position.
Re: Welcome Chase Edmonds!
I didn't say it was a dumb move. We needed a warm body. He's a warm body. There are fifty Chase Edmonds who will bounce on and off the bottom of rosters all season long. You saying "I'm a fan" makes you sound ridiculous unless you went to whatever college he attended or you're his mom.Doctor wrote: ↑Fri Apr 07, 2023 10:21 pm I'm an Edmonds fan.
