Falcons released LE Ray Edwards

He never really was as good as his stats in Minnesota seemed to suggest. He benefited greatly of playing opposite of Jarred Allen and having Kevin and Pat Williams on the interior of that D-line.

Robison has been a better DE for the Vikes than Edwards was, and many in Minnesota were laughing at the contract the Failclowns gave Edwards two seasons ago.

Another great move by Dimitroff!

Maybe he hasn't had the right stimulation.
He may need to play for a dynasty organization like the Saints.
We've been pretty good at reviving the career of former Falcons.... he might want to play for a real team.

Falcon coaching is subpar we all know that. I want Edwards given a shot. IF he worked out the plus is huge, and hes probably for cheap now.
..and if we sign him fast I am sure he wants to play his old team and will have a 2nd motor trying to kill ryan

Hell just sign him for that game,lol

Maybe, but I fear that he would need a dominating opposite DE and a dominating interior lineman pair to work with in order to be a dominant player himself.

Since the Saints are far from having any of those - although Jordan has showed some positive flashes of what he could develop into - I would have to think that he wouldn't really bring anything different to the table than the likes of McBride already do.

I could be wrong, but I don't think he is the answer to creating more pass rush with just the front 4.

Much like (I think it was) Clyde Simmons who played opposite Reggie white and with Jerome Brown. He had a shoot ton of sacks one year with Philly. Following year he signed with Arizona, and as they went so did his career.
