This guy could not have a better situation entering this season.
** James Hall is gone and Edwards is the undisputed starter at RDE.
** Redding is confirmed at DT. He bounced between DE and DT last year.
** Shaun Rogers is healthy after playing in only 6 games last year.
** DeWayne White was signed and he's a legit pass-rushing threat on the left side.
** Edwards' game (albeit one dimensional) is speed and he gets to play the majority of his games on turf.
Edwards has all the physical skills (early 2nd-round pick in '02) and is playing for a mammoth paycheck (signed a 4-year, $20mm extension in '06). If he stays on the roster, he'll have some hefty pay days over the next few years. If does not stay on the roster, his money-making days will come to an end. Edwards is on record as saying that he has "stole money" from the Lions organization by not producing thus far. If nothing else, the guy know where he stands. Another sub 10-sack season and he'll most likely give way to Alama-Francis next year and be cut.
