I don't think Amendola is in the same ballpark of the player Edelman is and Edelman offers inside/outside versatility which might be appealing to a team that I think would like to move Marvin Jones. Plus Amendola not likely to make it through a season.Foosball God said:While it wouldn't shock me it would surprise me if the Lions traded for Edelman, I mean what role is he going to be, they already have Amendola in the slot.
But again, it's a weak source and while I think Edelman would not mind getting out I'm not sure Bill is in such a hurry to let him go and I don't think he'd draw back a ton in a trade.
Someone tweeted out that Edelman was signed by Lions earlier in the day which was a joke and of course that's not possible since he's not a FA. That's not what Simmons was referring to but sounded to me like both he and Cowherd were just spitballing more then some kind of credible source providing them info.Someone tweeted out something similar yesterday (not Bill Simmons, maybe someone who heard his podcast) and I immediately just assumed it was April Fool's. Just seems unlikely but I guess anything's possible.
